Estimating trends in the global mean temperature record [PDF]
Given uncertainties in physical theory and numerical climate simulations, the historical temperature record is often used as a source of empirical information about climate change.

Urban weather modeling using WRF: linking physical assumptions, code implementation, and observational needs [PDF]
The Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model includes urban schemes that simulate the influence of urban surfaces on the atmosphere using parameterizations for flux, and radiative exchanges.

Probing the Stellar Surface of HD 209458 from Multicolor Transit Observations [PDF]
Multicolor photometric observations of a planetary transit in the system HD 209458 are analyzed. The observations, made in the Stromgren photometric system, allowed a recalculation of the basic physical properties of the star-planet system. This includes

Is Maximum Entropy Production (MEP) a physical principle? In this paper I tentatively suggest it is not, on the basis that MEP is equivalent to Jaynes’ Maximum Entropy (MaxEnt) inference algorithm that passively translates physical assumptions into ...

Semi-device-independent random number generation with flexible assumptions
Our ability to trust that a random number is truly random is essential for fields as diverse as cryptography and fundamental tests of quantum mechanics.

Symbolic aspects of coping with chronic illness through textile arts [PDF]
(Taken from Introduction) The relevance of art for people living with chronic physical illness is gradually being recognized (Kaye & Blee, 1997; Malchiodi, 1999). Chronic physical illness poses more than physical and functional problems.

Preoperative physical activity level has no relationship to the degree of recovery one year after primary total hip or knee arthroplasty: a cohort study. [PDF]
When it comes to prevalidation, it is assumed that a higher preoperative level of physical activity leads to better postoperative recovery. However current literature is inconclusive about the effect of prevalidation on functional recovery of patients ...

Rehabilitation for torture survivors: Six evidence myths and their implications for future research
Whilst it is established that torture survivors suffer from complex, multiple and often severe and enduring physical, psychological, social, welfare and many other difficulties; and that rehabilitation as reparation should be holistic, interdisciplinary ...

On Bell's theorem, quantum communication, and entanglement detection [PDF]
(A) Bell's theorem rests on a conjunction of three assumptions: realism, locality and ``free will''. A discussion of these assumptions will be presented. It will be also shown that, if one adds to the assumptions the principle or rotational symmetry of
