Global sensitivity analysis of an end-to-end marine ecosystem model of the North Sea : factors affecting the biomass of fish and benthos [PDF]
Comprehensive analysis of parameter and driver sensitivity is key to establishing the credibility of models of complex systems. This is especially so for models of natural systems where experimental manipulation of the real-world to provide controlled ...

An investigation on humans’ sensitivity to environmental temperature
Abstract While earlier investigations into thermal perception focused on measuring the detection of temperature changes across distinct bodily regions, the complex nature of thermal perception throughout the entire body remains a subject of ongoing exploration.

The magnitudes and timescales of global mean surface temperature feedbacks in climate models [PDF]
Because of the fundamental role feedbacks play in determining the response of surface temperature to perturbations in radiative forcing, it is important we understand the dynamic characteristics of these feedbacks.

A fiber Bragg grating (FBG) strain patch specially adapted for long-term and high-strain applications has been developed and characterized. The design concept for the patch is based on a glass-fiber reinforced plastic (gfrp) carrier material.

Parameterization of temperature sensitivity of spring phenology and its application in explaining diverse phenological responses to temperature change [PDF]
Existing evidence of plant phenological change to temperature increase demonstrates that the phenological responsiveness is greater at warmer locations and in early-season plant species. Explanations of these findings are scarce and not settled.

There are still uncertainties on the impacts of season-non-uniform-warming on plant precipitation use efficiency (PUE) and its temporal stability (PUEstability) in alpine areas.

Does physical protection of soil organic matter attenuate temperature sensitivity? [PDF]
Global climate change may induce accelerated soil organic matter (SOM) decomposition through increased soil temperature, and thus impact the C balance in soils.

Soil indigenous nutrients increase the resilience of maize yield to climatic warming in China
Climate warming leads to crop yield loss. Although investigations have shown the region-specific effect of climate warming on maize yield in China, the determinants of this region-specific effect are poorly known.

Modelling the Temperature Time-dependent Speed of Mean Reversion in the Context of Weather Derivatives Pricing [PDF]
In this paper, in the context of an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck temperature process, we use neural networks to examine the time dependence of the speed of the mean reversion parameter α of the process.

Two Mutants Affecting Adaptative Responses to Abiotic Stresses in Barley Seedlings
Two novel mutants which affect the adaptative responses of barley seedlings to different abiotic stresses are described. They allow us to explore some aspects of adaptative phenomena that are little known in higher plants.
