Profile extrema for visualizing and quantifying uncertainties on excursion regions. Application to coastal flooding

open access: yes, 2018
We consider the problem of describing excursion sets of a real-valued function $f$, i.e. the set of inputs where $f$ is above a fixed threshold. Such regions are hard to visualize if the input space dimension, $d$, is higher than 2.

Sparse polynomial chaos expansion for universal stochastic kriging

open access: yesJournal of Computational and Applied Mathematics
Surrogate modelling techniques have opened up new possibilities to overcome the limitations of computationally intensive numerical models in various areas of engineering and science. However, while fundamental in many engineering applications and decision-making, the incorporation of uncertainty quantification into meta-models remains a challenging ...

A Step Toward Rainfall Erosivity Mapping Over Türkiye Using Kriging With External Drift

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 3, March 2026.
This study maps rainfall erosivity (R factor) across Türkiye by integrating station‐based observations with satellite‐based precipitation data. The Modified Fournier Index (MFI) derived from CHIRPS was first validated against ground measurements and subsequently incorporated as auxiliary information within a kriging with external drift (KED) framework.

Reliability-based design optimization using kriging surrogates and subset simulation

open access: yes, 2011
The aim of the present paper is to develop a strategy for solving reliability-based design optimization (RBDO) problems that remains applicable when the performance models are expensive to evaluate.

Cyclone‐induced mixing and stratification shape autumnal hypoxia in a temperate estuary

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 2, March 2026.
Abstract Autumnal hypoxia in temperate estuaries is often overlooked due to its smaller extent, weaker intensity, and sparse observations compared to summer. However, climate variability may alter its seasonality. Using 40 yr (1984–2023) of hypoxic volume data from the Chesapeake Bay, combined with numerical simulations, we examined interannual drivers

Investigation of relationship between particulate matter (PM2.5) and meteorological parameters in Isfahan, Iran

open access: yesJournal of Air Pollution and Health, 2020
Introduction: Estimating air pollution levels in areas with no measurements is a major concern in health-related studies. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the amount of exposure to particulate matter below 2.5 µ (PM2.5) in the ...

Evaluating Satellite and Reanalysis Rainfall Estimates for Climate Services in Agriculture: A Comprehensive Methodology

open access: yesMeteorological Applications, Volume 33, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
This paper presents a comprehensive methodology for evaluating the ability of satellite and reanalysis rainfall data to provide localised, historical rainfall information for agricultural applications. This meets a major need for location‐specific rainfall information to improve climate information services for millions of small‐holder farming ...

Irrigation Monitoring With Cosmic‐Ray Neutron Sensors: Unraveling Field Experiments With Neutron Transport Simulations

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Irrigation is essential for stabilizing yields and sustaining food production, yet it faces increasing challenges, especially in water‐scarce regions. Cosmic‐ray neutron sensors (CRNS) are a promising tool in irrigation management as they can continuously monitor soil water content (SWC) over large areas.

Geostatistical Reconstruction of Atmospheric Refractivity Fields Using Universal Kriging

open access: yesGeomatics
Atmospheric refractivity governs the propagation behavior of electromagnetic waves in the lower troposphere. Accurate spatial characterization of this parameter is essential for optimizing communication, radar, and navigation systems. This study presents

Comparison of Some Geostatistical and Deterministic Interpolation Methods for Estimating Depth to the Water Table (Case study: The Iranshahr- Bampour Plain) [PDF]

open access: yesمهندسی منابع آب, 2017
In this study, some interpolation methods were evaluated for estimating groundwater depth in the Iranshahr- Bampour Plain during 2003, 2007 and 2012 in the months of May and October.
