The impact of seasonal variations in inner bark width and xylem growth on irreversible annual stem diameter measurements

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
The seasonal variation in inner bark width differed from that of xylem growth, indicating that xylem phenology cannot be reliably assessed without cellular observations. Abstract To better interpret continuous xylem growth measurements from dendrometers, we evaluated how the widths of developing xylem and phloem, along with seasonal trends in inner ...

New Modified Gompertz Probability Distribution With Flexible Hazard Functions

open access: yesJournal of Probability and Statistics
This paper introduces a new probability model called the modified Gompertz distribution from the base Gompertz distribution by combining its hazard function with first and second degree polynomial (linear and quadratic) functions.

Estimates of Blue Whale Growth and Reproductive Parameters From Historical Whaling Data

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 43, Issue 1, January 2027.
ABSTRACT During 20th‐century whaling, blue whales (Balaenoptera musculus) were hunted to near extinction. Biological data, such as earplugs and ovarian corpora, were collected during whaling and provide information about key demographic parameters that can inform population status.

A Novel Gompertz-Type Distribution with Applications to Radiological Dose and Pharmacokinetic Data

open access: yesMathematics
This study introduces a novel four-parameter lifetime distribution constructed within the Topp–Leone Power Gompertz framework. Owing to its flexible structure, the proposed model accommodates a wide range of density shapes and hazard-rate patterns ...

A simple empirical growing degree day model for predicting winter cover crop biomass in sandy soils

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 4, December 2026.
Abstract The ecosystem services provided by cover crops (CCs) are related to their biomass production. The objective of this study was to develop a simple empirical model to enable farmers to predict CC biomass yields based on planting and termination timing, thereby improving the assessment of CC benefits. A field experiment was conducted over 3 years

Normalized Gompertz wavelets and their applications

open access: yesInternational Journal of Wavelets, Multiresolution and Information Processing
In this paper we define, using the Stirling numbers of the second kind, the Gompertz wavelets and show their basic properties. In particular, we prove that the admissibility condition holds for them. We also compute the normalizing factors in the space of the square-integrable functions [Formula: see text] and present an explicit formula for them in ...

Unmanned aerial vehicle–based spatiotemporal phenotyping and growth modeling for forecasting potato yield

open access: yesThe Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Monitoring spatial variations in plant growth and forecasting yield before harvest provides valuable insights for optimizing agronomic decision‐making in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) cultivation. Although unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)‐based remote sensing has recently enabled the development of tuber fresh weight (TW) estimation models, their
