Mortality projection using two probabilistic models. Applications and limitations. [PDF]
Población y Desarrollo, 2020 This paper is focused on Lee-Carter Model and Functional Data Model, both of which were de veloped in the field of Statistics. These models are applied in order to carry out the projection of mortality and life expectancies at birth on three departments ...

Projecting Mortality Rates Using a Markov Chain [PDF]
Mathematics, 2022 We present a mortality model where future stochastic changes in population-wide mortality are driven by a finite-state hierarchical Markov chain. A baseline mortality in an initial ‘Alive’ state is calculated as the average logarithm of the observed mortality rates.

Light limitation and coral mortality in urbanised reef communities due to sea-level rise
Climate Change Ecology, 2023 Sea-level rise (SLR) is expected to elevate the depth of seawater above shallow coral reefs, reducing light availability to the benthic environment, and impacting the survival and growth of corals especially on turbid reefs. However, the extent of impact

Discount Rates, Mortality Projections, and Money's Worth Calculations for US Individual Annuities
Social Science Research Network, 2021 Estimates the expected present discounted value (EPDV) of future payouts on both immediate and deferred annuities are sensitive to the discount rate used to value future payment streams and assumptions about future mortality rates. This paper illustrates
