Sunshine Duration in Brazil From Meteosat (1983–2020): Climatology, Variability and Long‐Term Trends
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Using nearly four decades of Meteosat satellite data (1983–2020), this study presents a country‐wide climatology of sunshine duration (SDU) in Brazil. The results reveal marked regional contrasts, dominant modes of variability, and significant long‐term trends, providing new information on the most relevant meteorological systems that influence SDU and

Abstract and Applied Analysis, 2011 We present a decomposition of two topologies which characterize the upper and lower semicontinuity of the limit function to visualize their hidden and opposite roles with respect to the upper and lower semicontinuity and consequently the continuity of ...

Are West African Heat‐Lows Analogous to Dry Tropical Cyclones?
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Heat‐lows qualitatively resemble dry tropical cyclones (TCs), though their underlying physics has yet to be compared. In this study, we show that West African transient heat‐low climatology correlates well with TC potential intensity generalised over land.

FluidsCompressive sensing (CS) is capable of resolving high frequencies from subsampled data. However, it is challenging to apply CS in non-periodic flow fields with multiple frequencies.

Clinical Predictors of Tic‐Related Impairment in Children and Adults with Tourette Syndrome
Movement Disorders, EarlyView.Abstract Background Tic‐related impairment drives treatment decisions for Tourette syndrome and related tic disorders. The clinical features most strongly associated with impairment remain unclear. Objective The aim of this analysis is to identify clinical predictors of tic‐related impairment in children and adults with tic disorders in a prospective ...

Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper develops a mathematical framework for interpreting observations of solar inertial waves in an idealized setting. Under the assumption of purely toroidal linear waves on the sphere, the stream function of the flow satisfies a fourth‐order scalar equation.

The effects of single versus successive warm summers on an intertidal community
Oikos, EarlyView.To accurately predict how organisms and ecological communities will respond to future conditions caused by climate change, we must consider the temporal dynamics of environmental stressors, including the effects of repeated exposures to stress. We performed a two‐year passive thermal manipulation in coastal British Columbia, Canada to determine how ...

Pointwise estimates for solutions to perturbed Hasegawa-Mima equations
Electronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2015 In this article, we study pointwise estimates for solutions to the two-dimensional perturbed Hasegawa-Mima equation based on the analysis of the Green functions for the linearized system.

Oikos, EarlyView.Spatially explicit individual‐based models provide a powerful way to explore spatial dynamics when direct observation is not feasible. But for many ecological applications, these models require detailed data on the initial spatial arrangement and traits of individuals – information rarely available in large, heterogeneous or novel landscapes.

PLoS ONE, 2019 This study was inspired by the need to estimate pointwise confidence intervals (CIs) for a nonlinear dose-response model from a dose-finding clinical trial. Profile likelihood based CI for a nonlinear dose response model is often recommended. However, it
