Abstract Annual tree growth is a complex biological process. Modelling radial growth in the trunk by linear‐circular regression with one mode and correlated errors has allowed the definition and assessment of a preferred direction for 1 and 2 years. Here, modified F$$ F $$‐tests are presented for 3 years, 1 mode/year; 1 year, 2 modes for possible main ...

Numerical solutions for fractional optimal control problems using Müntz-Legendre polynomials [PDF]
This study introduces a novel method using the Müntz-Legendre polynomials for numerically solving fractional optimal control problems. Utilizing the unique properties of Müntz-Legendre polynomials when dealing with fractional operators, these polynomials

Two new orthogonal functions named the left- and the right-shifted fractional-order Legendre polynomials (SFLPs) are proposed. Several useful formulas for the SFLPs are directly generalized from the classic Legendre polynomials.

Nonlinear permuted Granger causality
Abstract Granger causality is an established, contentious method that seeks causal temporal connections via association and precedence. While not true causal inference, it assists in mapping networks of information flow that may warrant further study.

Orthogonal Polynomials, Paraorthogonal Polynomials, and Point Perturbation [PDF]
This thesis consists of three parts. Part 1 starts with an introduction to orthogonal polynomials, to be followed by some well-known theorems pertinent to the results we shall discuss.

Immersed Boundary Projection Method for Boundaries With Slip Velocities
A formulation of the immersed boundary method for incompressible flow over arbitrarily‐shaped bodies with surface slip described by the Navier boundary condition is presented. The wall slip velocity and the boundary force are determined implicitly through a projection to satisfy both the boundary condition and the divergence‐free condition of the ...

Holocene vegetation change and fire–plant diversity shifts in Mediterranean France
ABSTRACT Changes in fire activity are recognized as a major threat to biodiversity and vegetation communities across the Mediterranean Basin. However, long‐term fire–vegetation interactions remain poorly investigated. Here, we combine a high‐resolution charcoal record with pollen data from the “Étang des Aulnes” lake (southern France) to reconstruct ...

Abstract Flow cytometry measures the optical properties of individual cells and has become essential for enumerating and characterizing marine phytoplankton. Yet systematic comparison of measurements across instruments remains limited, hampering data comparison across laboratories and long‐term time series.
