The use of personal weather station observations to improve precipitation estimation and interpolation [PDF]
The number of personal weather stations (PWSs) with data available through the internet is increasing gradually in many parts of the world. The purpose of this study is to investigate the applicability of these data for the spatial interpolation of ...

Assessing students' knowledge of the concept of science and scientific exploration and its relationship with understanding a physical concept (mass) [PDF]
Background and Objective: Today, a positivist one-dimensional view of science, where it considers scientific propositions to be objective, definite, and fixed, is not credible enough, and the interdisciplinary and multidimensional nature of science is ...

Statistics of natural binaural sounds. [PDF]
Binaural sound localization is usually considered a discrimination task, where interaural phase (IPD) and level (ILD) disparities at narrowly tuned frequency channels are utilized to identify a position of a sound source.

EMPIRICAL DISTRIBUTION FUNCTIONS AND FUNCTIONS OF ORDER STATISTICS FOR MIXING RANDOM VARIABLES
AbstractSome fundamental properties of the empirical distribution functions are derived in the case of mixing random variables. These properties are then utilized to study asymptotic normality and strong laws of large numbers for functions of order statistics.

Landslides triggered by the 12 January 2010 Port-au-Prince, Haiti, Mw = 7.0 earthquake: visual interpretation, inventory compiling, and spatial distribution statistical analysis [PDF]
The 12 January 2010 Port-au-Prince, Haiti, earthquake (Mw= 7.0) triggered tens of thousands of landslides. The purpose of this study is to investigate the correlations of the occurrence of landslides and the thicknesses of their erosion with topographic,

For a random sample of size N from a uniform distribution over (0,1), let \(U_{n:N}\) denote the \(n^{th}\) order statistic for \(1\leq n\leq N\). Define \(U_{0:N}=0\) and \(U_{n:N}=1+U_{n-N-1:N}\) for \(n>N\). Then uniform \(m^{th}\) order spacings are given by \(D(m,n,N)=U_{n+m:N}- U_{n:N}\) for \(0\leq n\leq N.\) This paper investigates the ...
