Moving-Boundary Fluctuation Analysis: Premium Drift, Ladder Structure, and Ruin in Phase-Type Cumulative Shock Models

Mathematics
We extend the phase-tagged fluctuation framework for cumulative shock models from a fixed failure threshold to a linearly moving boundary u0+cτn, the premium drift regime that underlies insurance ruin theory.

Intercomparison of multiple years of MODIS, MISR and radar cloud-top heights [PDF]

, 2005
International audienceRadar cloud-top heights were retrieved at both the Chilbolton Facility for Atmospheric and Radio Research, UK (CFARR) and the ARM Southern Great Plain site, USA (SGP), using millimetre wave cloud radars and identical algorithms. The

Diel variation in the ascent of fishes up an experimental fish ladder at Itaipu Reservoir: fish size, reproductive stage and taxonomic group influences

Neotropical Ichthyology
In this study, we evaluated the fish ascent in the experimental ladder at Itaipu Reservoir (Paraná State, Brazil), in relation to diel variation, fish size, reproductive stages and species composition.

European Heights in the Early 18th Century [PDF]

, 2005
We estimate the height of various European populations in the first half of the 18th century. English and Irish male heights are estimated at c. 65 inches (165 cm), and c. 66 inches (168 cm) respectively.

On moments of ladder height variables

Advances in Applied Mathematics, 1986
Let \(X_ 1,X_ 2,...,X_ n,..\). be i.i.d. random variables. Define \(S_ 0=0\), \(S_ n=X_ 1+...+X_ n\), \(N=\inf \{n\geq 1:\) \(S_ n\leq 0\}\).

At the edge of change: Native Phragmites persistence and nonnative arrival along the dam‐regulated Colorado River

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise The southwestern United States is at the forefront of nonnative Phragmites australis subsp. australis expansion. Native Phragmites australis subsp. americanus, likely in decline in North America, is ecologically and culturally important and of conservation interest. In the greater Grand Canyon region, the Glen Canyon Dam led to loss of

More‐than‐gender? Moving beyond gendered expectations of divergent learners in early childhood education

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract In this paper, we explore how neurodivergent ways of being in early education are often gendered. The intersectionalities of gender and neurodivergence often lead to fixed expectations that perpetuate binary interpretations, pathologisations, missed diagnoses and a lack of curated support.
