Observations of the thermodynamic and kinematic state of the atmospheric boundary layer over the San Luis Valley, CO, using the CopterSonde 2 remotely piloted aircraft system in support of the LAPSE-RATE field campaign [PDF]
In July 2018, the University of Oklahoma deployed three CopterSonde remotely piloted aircraft systems (RPASs) to take measurements of the evolving thermodynamic and kinematic state of the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) over complex terrain in the San ...

A dual-tube sampling technique for snowpack studies
The validity of any glaciological paleo proxy used to interpret climate records is based on the level of understanding of their transfer from the atmosphere into the ice sheet and their recording in the snowpack. Large spatial noise in snow properties is

Small Sample Studies: Unique Contributions for Large Sample Outcome Studies [PDF]
There are many important issues relevant to the course of illness and outcome of chronic psychiatric disorders that are not readily amenable to investigation with existing large sample, quantitative methodology. For example, complex interactive phenomena that change over time, such as the longitudinal impact of changes in social and work function on ...

Obtaining self-samples to diagnose curable sexually transmitted infections: a systematic review of patients' experiences [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Routine screening is key to sexually transmitted infection (STI) prevention and control. Previous studies suggest that clinic-based screening programmes capture only a small proportion of people with STIs.

A theoretical framework for estimation of AUCs in complete and incomplete sampling designs. [PDF]
Nonclinical in vivo animal studies have to be completed before starting clinical studies of the pharmacokinetic behavior of a drug in humans. The drug exposure in animal studies is often measured by the area under the concentration versus time curve (AUC)

A web-based tool to design and analyze single- and double-stage acceptance sampling plans [PDF]
Acceptance sampling plans are used to determine whether production lots can be accepted or rejected. Existing tools only provide a limited functionality for the two-point design and the risk analysis of such plans.
