A history of solar activity over millennia
Here we review present knowledge of the long-term behaviour of solar activity on a multi-millennial timescale, as reconstructed using the indirect proxy method.

Using luminosity data as a proxy for economic statistics [PDF]
A pervasive issue in social and environmental research has been how to improve the quality of socioeconomic data in developing countries. Given the shortcomings of standard sources, the present study examines luminosity (measures of nighttime lights visible from space) as a proxy for standard measures of output (gross domestic product).

Statistically Derived Proxy Potentials Accelerate Geometry Optimization of Crystal Structures
AbstractThe crystal structures of known materials contain the information about the interatomic interactions that produced these stable compounds. Similar to the use of reported protein structures to extract effective interactions between amino acids, that has been a useful tool in protein structure prediction, we demonstrate how to use this ...

Flowing fibers as a proxy of turbulence statistics [PDF]
The flapping states of a flexible fiber fully coupled to a three-dimensional turbulent flow are investigated via state-of-the-art numerical methods. Two distinct flapping regimes are predicted by the phenomenological theory recently proposed by Rosti et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett.

Energy consumption and cooperation for optimal sensing
Cells exhibit exceptional chemical sensitivity, yet we haven’t fully understood how they achieve it. Here the authors consider the mutual information between signals and two coupled sensors as a proxy for sensing performance and show its optimisation ...

The Value of Luminosity Data as a Proxy for Economic Statistics [PDF]
One of the pervasive issues in social and environmental research has been to improve the quality of socioeconomic data in developing countries. Because of the shortcoming of standard data sources, the present study examines luminosity (measures of nighttime lights) as a proxy for standard measures of output.

European Jurassic floras: statistics and palaeoenvironmental proxies
Abstract The Jurassic floras of Europe show considerable diversity. To examine the extent of this diversity and its possible causes we used multivariate statistical methods (cluster analysis, PCA, NMDS) to compare all significant Jurassic floras in Europe.
