How to Deal With Multi-Proxy Data for Paleoenvironmental Reconstructions: Applications to a Holocene Lake Sediment Record From the Tian Shan, Central Asia

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
Multi-proxy investigations on geological archives provide valuable information about environmental variations in the past. As opposed to single-proxy studies, the combination of several proxies can reveal more detailed information and strengthen ...

Can proxy interpreters replace certified interpreters in medical and legal settings?

open access: yesCogent Arts & Humanities, 2022
Officials play a critical role in regulating the translation industry and advancing global translation quality, particularly in specialized fields such as medicine, health care, and law. Non-professionals and family members (proxies). Therefore, this study aims to endorse the translator’s reliability to assist decision-makers in medical and legal ...

Palaeogeographic controls on climate and proxy interpretation [PDF]

open access: yesClimate of the Past, 2015
Abstract. During the period from approximately 150 to 35 million years ago, the Cretaceous–Paleocene–Eocene (CPE), the Earth was in a "greenhouse" state with little or no ice at either pole. It was also a period of considerable global change, from the warmest periods of the mid Cretaceous, to the threshold of icehouse conditions at the end of the ...

Colombia, the Drug Wars and the Politics of Drug Policy Displacement – from La Violencia to UNGASS 2016

open access: yesJournal of Illicit Economies and Development, 2021
This article breaks new conceptual ground by questioning orthodox interpretations of nation state agency in the global drug wars. Specifically, it challenges the David vs.

Support needs of carers making proxy healthcare decisions for people with dementia: a systematic review based on the Noblit and Hare meta-ethnographic synthesis of qualitative studies

open access: yesBMJ Open, 2021
Background There are 50 million dementia sufferers worldwide. Decisions about healthcare often need to be made when the person with dementia lacks capacity to do so.Understanding the support needs of carers acting as proxy healthcare decision-makers will

Quantitative stratigraphic analysis in a source-to-sink numerical framework [PDF]

open access: yesGeoscientific Model Development, 2019
The sedimentary architecture at continental margins reflects the interplay between the rate of change of accommodation creation (δA) and the rate of change of sediment supply (δS).

A model–data comparison of the Holocene global sea surface temperature evolution [PDF]

open access: yesClimate of the Past, 2013
We compare the ocean temperature evolution of the Holocene as simulated by climate models and reconstructed from marine temperature proxies. We use transient simulations from a coupled atmosphere–ocean general circulation model, as well as an ensemble of

Proxy responses to ICECAP-A: Exploring variation across multiple proxy assessments of capability well-being for the same individuals.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
BackgroundThe ICECAP capability measures are increasingly being used to capture the impact of health and social care interventions on well-being. In cases where the recipient of an intervention is highly vulnerable, proxy completion may be necessary ...

The Integrated Use of Dendrochronological Data and Paleoecological Records From Northwest European Peatlands and Lakes for Understanding Long-Term Ecological and Climatic Changes—A Review

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Our overall understanding of long-term climate dynamics is largely based on proxy data generated from archives such as ice cores, ocean sediments, tree rings, speleothems, and corals, whereas reconstructions of long-term changes in vegetation and ...

Quantification of uncertainty in 3-D seismic interpretation: implications for deterministic and stochastic geomodeling and machine learning [PDF]

open access: yesSolid Earth, 2019
In recent years, uncertainty has been widely recognized in geosciences, leading to an increased need for its quantification. Predicting the subsurface is an especially uncertain effort, as our information either comes from spatially highly limited direct
