Measuring the impact of observations on the predictability of the Kuroshio Extension in a shallow-water model [PDF]

, 2012
In this paper sequential importance sampling is used to assess the impact of observations on a ensemble prediction for the decadal path transitions of the Kuroshio Extension (KE). This particle filtering approach gives access to the probability density of

Survey Methods for Hard-to-Reach Populations: Introduction to the Special Issue

Methodological Innovations, 2010
Surveys of hard to reach populations (rare, no known sampling frames) have been, for some years, the object of methodological reflection. Various methods aiming at the production of an ‘extrapolable’ sample of these populations have been proposed: time ...

Validation of Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) Devices on Sheep to Detect Grazing Movement Leaders and Social Networks in Merino Ewes

Sensors, 2021
Understanding social behaviour in livestock groups requires accurate geo-spatial localisation data over time which is difficult to obtain in the field. Automated on-animal devices may provide a solution.

Optimizing sampling design to deal with mist-net avoidance in Amazonian birds and bats. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Mist netting is a widely used technique to sample bird and bat assemblages. However, captures often decline with time because animals learn and avoid the locations of nets. This avoidance or net shyness can substantially decrease sampling efficiency.

A Novel Pix2Pix Enabled Traveling Wave-Based Fault Location Method

Sensors, 2021
This paper proposes a new Image-to-Image Translation (Pix2Pix) enabled deep learning method for traveling wave-based fault location. Unlike the previous methods that require a high sampling frequency of the PMU, the proposed method can translate the ...

The Direction of Arrival Location Deception Model Counter Duel Baseline Phase Interferometer Based on Frequency Diverse Array

Frontiers in Physics, 2021
With the emergence and development of the passive localization, the radiation source is more visible for the location system which endangers their survival. Therefore, there is an urgent demand for the radio frequency (RF) stealth technology.

Why and When Are Evidence‐Based Interventions Adopted in Paediatric Supportive Care? A Qualitative Exploration of the Determinants of Photobiomodulation Implementation

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Oral mucositis is a common and debilitating side effect of childhood cancer and stem cell transplant treatments. It affects the quality of life of children and young people (CYP) and places a strain on services. Photobiomodulation is recommended for oral mucositis prevention in international guidance but is poorly implemented in UK ...

Personalized Selumetinib Dosing in Pediatric Neurofibromatosis Type 1: Insights From a Pilot Therapeutic Drug Monitoring Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate selumetinib exposure using therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) in pediatric patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) and plexiform neurofibromas (PN), assess interpatient pharmacokinetic variability, and explore the relationship between drug exposure, clinical response, and adverse effects.
