Larval condition and growth of Sardinella brasiliensis (Steindachner, 1879): preliminary results from laboratory studies [PDF]
Brazilian sardine, the most important resource along the southeastern Brazilian coast, presented great variations and declines in its stocks. The main factors contributing to this are: oceanographic structure changes; recruitment failures; excessive ...

Time-Inhomogeneous Jump Processes and Variable Order Operators [PDF]
In this paper we introduce non-decreasing jump processes with independent and time non-homogeneous increments. Although they are not Lévy processes, they somehow generalize subordinators in the sense that their Laplace exponents are possibly different ...

Split invariance principles for stationary processes. [PDF]
The results of Komlos, Major and Tusnady give optimal Wiener approximation of partial sums of i.i.d. random variables and provide an extremely powerful tool in probability and statistical inference. Recently Wu [Ann. Probab. 35 (2007) 2294–2320] obtained

Parametric estimation of the driving Lévy process of multivariate CARMA processes from discrete observations [PDF]
We consider the parametric estimation of the driving L\'evy process of a multivariate continuous-time autoregressive moving average (MCARMA) process, which is observed on the discrete time grid $(0,h,2h,...)$. Beginning with a new state space representation, we develop a method to recover the driving L\'evy process exactly from a continuous record of ...

Plasticity in the rat prefrontal cortex: linking gene expression and an operant learning with a computational theory. [PDF]
The plasticity in the medial Prefrontal Cortex (mPFC) of rodents or lateral prefrontal cortex in non human primates (lPFC), plays a key role neural circuits involved in learning and memory.

Size‐Dependent Photon Avalanching in Tm3+ Doped LiYF4 Nano, Micro, and Bulk Crystals
Photon avalanche (PA) is a highly nonlinear mode of upconversion that is characterized by 100–1000‐fold increase in luminescence intensity upon minute increments of pumping power.

TRP, TRPL and cacophony channels mediate Ca2+ influx and exocytosis in photoreceptors axons in Drosophila. [PDF]
In Drosophila photoreceptors Ca(2+)-permeable channels TRP and TRPL are the targets of phototransduction, occurring in photosensitive microvilli and mediated by a phospholipase C (PLC) pathway. Using a novel Drosophila brain slice preparation, we studied

The application of quantitative interpretation techniques for hydrocarbon prospect evaluation from seismic has become so vital. The effective employment of these techniques is dependent on several factors: the quality of the seismic and well data ...

Stochastic SIR Lévy Jump Model with Heavy-Tailed Increments [PDF]
This paper considers a general stochastic SIR epidemic model driven by a multidimensional Lévy jump process with heavy-tailed increments and possible correlation between noise components. In this framework, we derive new sufficient conditions for disease

Asymptotic behavior of the quadratic variation of the sum of two Hermite processes of consecutive orders [PDF]
Hermite processes are self--similar processes with stationary increments which appear as limits of normalized sums of random variables with long range dependence.
