Hierarchical Bayesian Modeling of Total Column Ozone: Unraveling Equatorial Variability Over Ethiopia Using Satellite Data and Multisource Covariates

Environmetrics, Volume 37, Issue 5, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding the spatiotemporal dynamics of total column ozone (TCO) is critical for monitoring ultraviolet (UV) exposure and ozone trends, particularly in equatorial regions where variability remains underexplored. This study investigates monthly TCO over Ethiopia (2012–2022) using a Bayesian hierarchical model implemented via Integrated ...

Mapping spatial drivers of rice productivity: A case study of Inpari 36 and 37 in West Java with BYM2-INLA

Journal of Geospatial Science and Analytics
West Java is one of Indonesia’s largest rice-producing provinces. However, rice production has declined by 23.07% since 2018 due to land conversion. Therefore, this study investigates the factors influencing rice productivity by modeling and mapping the ...

A Mixture of Distributed Lag Non‐Linear Models to Account for Spatially Heterogeneous Exposure‐Lag‐Response Associations

Statistics in Medicine, Volume 45, Issue 15-17, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Environmental exposures, such as air pollution and extreme temperatures, have complex effects on human health. These effects are often characterized by non‐linear exposure‐lag‐response relationships and delayed impacts over time. Accurately capturing these dynamics is crucial for informing public health interventions.

A methodological framework for the improved use of routine health system data to evaluate national malaria control programs : evidence from Zambia [PDF]

, 2014
Due to challenges in laboratory confirmation, reporting completeness, timeliness, and health access, routine incidence data from health management information systems (HMIS) have rarely been used for the rigorous evaluation of malaria control program ...

Multivariate Posterior Inference for Spatial Models with the Integrated Nested Laplace Approximation

, 2018
Summary The integrated nested Laplace approximation (INLA) is a convenient way to obtain approximations to the posterior marginals for parameters in Bayesian hierarchical models when the latent effects can be expressed as a Gaussian Markov

Faster Detection of Poliomyelitis Outbreaks to Support Polio Eradication

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2016
As the global eradication of poliomyelitis approaches the final stages, prompt detection of new outbreaks is critical to enable a fast and effective outbreak response. Surveillance relies on reporting of acute flaccid paralysis (AFP) cases and laboratory
