Estudo da precipitação efetiva para o município de Lavras, MG Effective rainfall study in the municipality of Lavras, MG

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Engenharia Agrícola e Ambiental, 2000
A determinação da precipitação efetiva apresenta grande relevância no estudo da precipitação com fins de aplicação na agricultura, visto que esta parcela da precipitação é realmente aquela que estará contribuindo com a água disponível do solo.

Bayesian inference for quantiles of the log‐normal distribution

open access: yesBiometrical Journal, 2020
AbstractThe log‐normal distribution is very popular for modeling positive right‐skewed data and represents a common distributional assumption in many environmental applications. Here we consider the estimation of quantiles of this distribution from a Bayesian perspective. We show that the prior on the variance of the log of the variable is relevant for

Bibliometric indicators: the origin of their log-normal distribution and why they are not a reliable proxy for an individual scholar’s talent

open access: yesPalgrave Communications, 2017
There is now compelling evidence that the statistical distributions of extensive individual bibliometric indicators collected by a scholar, such as the number of publications or the total number of citations, are well represented by a Log-Normal function

Minimum K-S estimator using PH-transform technique [PDF]

open access: yesSuan Sunandha Rajabhat University Journal of Science and Technology, 2016
In this paper, we propose an improvement of the Minimum Kolmogorov-Smirnov (K-S) estimator using proportional hazards transform (PH-transform) technique. The data of experiment is 47 fire accidents data of an insurance company in Thailand.

Log-normal distribution from a process that is not multiplicative but is additive. [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical review. E, Statistical, nonlinear, and soft matter physics, 2013
The central limit theorem ensures that a sum of random variables tends to a Gaussian distribution as their total number tends to infinity. However, for a class of positive random variables, we find that the sum tends faster to a log-normal distribution ...

TWO-PARAMETER GAMMA DISTRIBUTION AND LOG NORMAL DISTRIBUTION FOR DERIVATION OF SYNTHETIC UNIT HYDROGRAPH

open access: yesJournal of Engineering, 2011
Most available methods for unit hydrographs (SUH) derivation involve manual, subjective fitting of a hydrograph through a few data points. The use of probability distributions for the derivation of synthetic hydrographs had received much attention ...

LQ-Moments: Application to the Log-Normal distribution [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Mathematics and Statistics, 2006
Summary: \textit{G. S. Mudolkar} and \textit{A. D. Hutson} [J. Stat. Plann. Inference 71, No.~1--2, 191--208 (1998; Zbl 0981.62039)] extended L-moments to new moments called LQ-moments (LQMOM). The LQMOM are constructed by using functionals defining quick estimators, where the parameters of quick estimators take the values \(p = 0\), \(\alpha = 1\) for
