Paleobotanical proxies for early Eocene climates and ecosystems in northern North America from middle to high latitudes [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2020 Early Eocene climates were globally warm, with ice-free conditions at both poles. Early Eocene polar landmasses supported extensive forest ecosystems of a primarily temperate biota but also with abundant thermophilic elements, such as crocodilians, and ...

An information theory based behavioral model for agent-based crowd simulations [PDF]
, 2010 Crowds must be simulated believable in terms of their appearance and behavior to improve a virtual environment’s realism. Due to the complex nature of human behavior, realistic behavior of agents in crowd simulations is still a challenging problem.

Use of Proxy Indicators to Interpret the Epi Curve of COVID-19 in Sri Lanka [PDF]
International Journal of Community Resilience, 2021 Sri Lanka has taken measures to avoid the introduction and spread of COVID-19 well before the country confirmed its first COVID 19 case on 27th January 2020, on top of its detailed epidemiological surveillance and infectious disease control system. Traditional indicators such as the daily case numbers have been used as an indicator to keep track of the

Interpreting Climate Proxies from Tree-rings
, 2004 Trees, as long living plants, are governed by environmental and/or climate changes within their habitat. Their growth rings record to a large extent the temporal dynamics of these changes either directly or through tree physiological reactions. They render the highest time resolution thus far possible for environmental or climate reconstructions of the
