The mode-based decomposition into the growth and distribution effects for segments of poor
This study proposes the mode-based decomposition approach to better examine the change of the wealth of more impoverished populations into growth and distribution effects.

Cladistics, EarlyView.Abstract Cingulata, a major lineage of Xenarthra, comprises extinct and extant armoured placental mammals that diversified throughout the Cenozoic. Despite extensive study, phylogenetic hypotheses based on morphological and molecular data remain incongruent, and no total evidence analysis has been conducted. Here, we integrate the largest morphological

Cladistics, EarlyView.Abstract In well‐studied groups of organisms, the taxonomic landscape can be very complex, with several alternative classifications describing diversity within the same set of populations. For example, three hypotheses have previously been proposed to describe the taxonomy of the common and widespread Eurasian Dusky Meadow Brown butterfly, Hyponephele ...

Estimating the total mortality of seabirds following a marine heat wave
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Marine heat waves detrimentally affect a range of marine species, including seabirds, and are increasing in frequency and severity. When thousands of dead seabirds wash up on beaches, the public becomes concerned. However, the number of dead birds recorded on beaches is only a fraction of the total mortality; most birds perish at sea.

A new De Vylder type approximation of the ruin probability in infinite time [PDF]
In this paper we introduce a generalization of the De Vylder approximation. Our idea is to approximate the ruin probability with the one for a different process with gamma claims, matching first four moments.

Economic Burden of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia in Australia
European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background The treatment landscape for chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) has transformed over the past decade. This study aimed to estimate the healthcare costs and health burden associated with CLL in Australia. Methods A Markov model was developed to simulate the lifetime healthcare costs and health outcomes associated with CLL in ...

The distribution of households consumption-expenditure budget shares [PDF]
This paper explores the statistical properties of house-hold consumption-expenditure budget share distributions —defined as the share of household total expenditure spent for purchasing a specific category of commodities— for a large sample of Italian ...
