Climatic and oceanic associations with daily rainfall extremes over southern Africa [PDF]
Changes in climate variability and, in particular, changes in extreme climate events are likely to be of far more significance for environmentally vulnerable regions than changes in the mean state.

Increased Spatial Variability and Intensification of Extreme Monsoon Rainfall due to Urbanization
While satellite data provides a strong robust signature of urban feedback on extreme precipitation; urbanization signal is often not so prominent with station level data.

Sky Variability in the y Band at the LSST Site [PDF]
We have measured spatial and temporal variability in the y band sky brightness over the course of four nights above Cerro Tololo near Cerro Pachon, Chile, the planned site for the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST).

Spatial variability assessment of soil available phosphorus using geostatistical approach
Soil available phosphorus (P), a major plant nutrient, exhibits a high degree of spatial variability. Spatial variability assessment of P is necessary for its precise management using geostatistics.

A hierarchical model to estimate the abundance and biomass of salmonids by using removal sampling and biometric data from multiple locations [PDF]
We present a Bayesian hierarchical model to estimate the abundance and the biomass of brown trout (Salmo trutta fario) by using removal sampling and biometric data collected at several stream sections.

Water stress, which affects yield and wine quality, is often evaluated using the midday stem water potential (Ψstem). However, this measurement is acquired on a per plant basis and does not account for the assessment of vine water status spatial ...

Spatial variability of apparent electrical conductivity and soil properties in a coffee production field [PDF]
Precision agriculture based on the physical and chemical properties of soil requires dense sampling to determine the spatial variability of these properties. This dense sampling is often expensive and time-consuming.

Isotopic niche variability in macroconsumers of the East Scotia Ridge (Southern Ocean) hydrothermal vents: What more can we learn from an ellipse? [PDF]
Aspects of between-individual trophic niche width can be explored through the isotopic niche concept. In many cases isotopic variability can be influenced by the scale of sampling and biological characteristics including body size or sex.

Spatial variability in soil pH and land use as the main influential factor in the red beds of the Nanxiong Basin, China [PDF]
Soil pH is the main factor affecting soil nutrient availability and chemical substances in soil. It is of great significance to study the spatial variability of soil pH for the management of soil nutrients and the prediction of soil pollution.
