The Thar Desert receives very scarce and scanty rainfall; hence, water is given the top priority and importance in daily life. During the past decades, there has been a variation in the trend of the rainfall, climate, and other atmospheric conditions

The time series rainfall data of 70 years (1940 – 2010) of Sinjar District used to identify the trend and slope magnitude of this series. To analyze the trend, the non-parametric test (Mann-Kendall test) and Sen’s slope estimator were used.

Testing for linearity in scalar-on-function regression with responses missing at random [PDF]
A goodness-of-fit test for the Functional Linear Model with Scalar Response (FLMSR) with responses Missing at Random (MAR) is proposed in this paper. The test statistic relies on a marked empirical process indexed by the projected functional covariate and its distribution under the null hypothesis is calibrated using a wild bootstrap procedure.

Drought is one of the most severe natural disasters worldwide, but with a particular emphasis in sub-humid and semi-arid climates. Several indices have been created to appropriately identify drought’s characteristics and variability.

This study investigates the trend in monthly and annual rainfall, minimum and maximum temperature (Tmin and Tmax) using the Mann–Kendall (MK) test and Sen’s slope (SS) method and evaluates the significance of their variability for maize, sorghum and ...

Low-rank Panel Quantile Regression: Estimation and Inference [PDF]
In this paper, we propose a class of low-rank panel quantile regression models which allow for unobserved slope heterogeneity over both individuals and time. We estimate the heterogeneous intercept and slope matrices via nuclear norm regularization followed by sample splitting, row- and column-wise quantile regressions and debiasing.

Land use/land cover change and climate change have diverse impacts on the water resources of river basins. This study investigated the trends of climate change and land use/land cover change in the Nile River Basin. The climate trends were analyzed using
