Global sensitivity analysis of an end-to-end marine ecosystem model of the North Sea : factors affecting the biomass of fish and benthos [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
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

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
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]

open access: yes, 2011
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.

Field Deployable Fiber Bragg Grating Strain Patch for Long-Term Stable Health Monitoring Applications

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2013
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]

open access: yes, 2015
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.

Non-growing/growing season non-uniform-warming increases precipitation use efficiency but reduces its temporal stability in an alpine meadow

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
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]

open access: yes, 2009
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

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2020
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]

open access: yes, 2008
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

open access: yesCzech Journal of Genetics and Plant Breeding, 2005
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.
