Evaluation of radar-gauge merging methods for quantitative precipitation estimates [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2009
Accurate quantitative precipitation estimates are of crucial importance for hydrological studies and applications. When spatial precipitation fields are required, rain gauge measurements are often combined with weather radar observations.

Fuzzy reasoning based interactive diagnosis of a grid network of rain gauge sensors

open access: yesIFAC Proceedings Volumes, 2010
This paper deals with the design of a diagnosis tool for a network of rain gauge sensors in the context of human-machine cooperation. The model of the whole system is di cult to be completely established before the diagnosis analysis. A part of the expert's knowledge is tacit and it'll be exploited during the diagnostic process e.g. expert analyzes the

Food Prices and Inflation Expectations in New Zealand

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Food prices are conspicuous, and spending on food constitutes a considerable share of household expenditure. In this study, we use partially identified Bayesian structural vector autoregression models to analyze the effects of food price shocks on core inflation and 1‐ and 5‐year inflation expectations in New Zealand.

Optimal extension of the rain gauge monitoring network of the Apulian Regional Consortium for Crop Protection

open access: yesEnvironmental Monitoring and Assessment, 2007
The goal of this paper is to provide a methodology for assessing the optimal localization of new monitoring stations within an existing rain gauge monitoring network. The methodology presented, which uses geostatistics and probabilistic techniques (simulated annealing) combined with GIS instruments, could be extremely useful in any area where an ...

When the River Runs Low: Heterogeneous Impacts of Transportation Disruptions on Local Grain Basis

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A substantial share of U.S. soybean and corn exports from the Midwest moves by barge along the Mississippi River system to export terminals in the Louisiana Gulf. Transportation costs between Midwestern grain elevators and export terminals create a wedge between prices at these locations, and shocks to these costs are partially passed on to ...

Water‐Mediated Phosphoryl Wires Stabilize Pathological Tau Fibrils

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Extended 1D phosphoryl “wires” stabilize in‐register amyloid tau fibrils, as demonstrated by multiple‐quantum spin‐counting NMR, TEM, and MD simulations, using fibrils of tau peptide jR2R3‐P301L (tau295–313) with phosphorylation at S305 or Y310. ABSTRACT Hyperphosphorylation of tau is a hallmark of tauopathies, with specific phosphorylation sites ...

Reconfiguring Fresh Produce Supply Chains in Response to Drought Risk: Evidence From the U.S. Broccoli Market

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drought is among the most severe and persistent threats to food supply chains, and relocating production to less drought‐prone regions offers a strategy to reduce this risk. This is particularly relevant for fresh vegetables, which are highly water‐intensive, yet drought‐driven reconfiguration strategies remain understudied.

Smart Bioinspired Material‐Based Actuators: Current Challenges and Prospects

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.
This work gathers, in a review style, an extensive and comprehensive literature overview on the development of autonomous actuators based on synthetic materials, bringing together valuable knowledge from several studies. Furthermore, the article identifies the fundamental principles of actuation mechanisms and defines key parameters to address the size

Shapley Additive Explanation for Local Class Differentiation: Local Explainability for Class Differentiation in Classification Models

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
An instance‐level, model‐agnostic explanation of class differentiation is introduced through SHAP‐LCD, linking probability shifts to feature‐wise Shapley contributions. The method operates on tabular and image data and is released in a fully reproducible implementation, offering a transparent way to examine, at each instance, why predictive models ...

Evaluating the potential of radar-based rainfall estimates for streamflow and flood simulations in the Philippines

open access: yesGeomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2016
This case study evaluates the suitability of radar-based quantitative precipitation estimates (QPEs) for the simulation of streamflow in the Marikina River Basin (MRB), the Philippines.
