Constructing two-level nonlinear mixed-effects crown width models for Moso bamboo in China

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Bamboo crown width (CW) is a reliable index for evaluating growth, yield, health and vitality of bamboo, and light capture ability and carbon fixation efficiency of bamboo forests. Based on statistical results produced from fitting the eight basic growth

Logarithmic Variance for the Height Function of Square-Ice

open access: yesCommunications in Mathematical Physics, 2022
In this article, we prove that the height function associated with the square-ice model (i.e.~the six-vertex model with $a=b=c=1$ on the square lattice), or, equivalently, of the uniform random homomorphisms from $\mathbb Z^2$ to $\mathbb Z$, has logarithmic variance. This establishes a strong form of roughness of this height function.

Population and species neighbor identity impact trait–trait relationships and plant performance

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
We evaluated how populations and species identity influence plant performance and trait outcomes in mixtures, and assessed trait variation among populations of two forb species native to the western United States (Dieteria canescens and Heterotheca villosa) following three interaction treatments (single‐population monoculture, two‐population mixture ...

Analytical Bounds for Mixture Models in Cauchy–Stieltjes Kernel Families

open access: yesMathematics
Mixture models are widely used in mathematical statistics and theoretical probability. However, the mixture probability distribution is rarely explicit in its formula.

Effects of chronic browsing on life‐history traits of an irruptive large herbivore population

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
This study aimed to determine the relationship between diet quality, body mass, and size (hind foot length), and female reproduction and sought to identify the mechanism by which high density under severe food limitations is maintained. Our results demonstrated that sika deer introduced to Nakanoshima Island have maintained high densities through high ...

Combining transient dynamics and logistic‐asymptotic growth to study the recovery of two seabird populations after rat eradication

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
This study examines the demographic dynamics of two seabird populations on Tromelin Island, 15 years after the eradication of brown rats. The results indicate that these populations are in good health and are expected to continue growing until breeding sites are saturated in about a century.

Generalised variance functions for longitudinal survey data

open access: yesStatistical Theory and Related Fields, 2019
In this research, we propose longitudinal generalised variance functions (LGVFs) to produce convenient estimates of variances by incorporating time effect into modelling.

The Relationship Between the SST of the Surface Mediterranean and the Temperature/Precipitation of Middle East Using Empirical Orthogonal Function For the Period (1980-2009)

open access: yesAl-Mustansiriyah Journal of Science, 2017
The aim of this study is to identify the variations of Sea Surface Temperature (SST) of the Mediterranean Sea and the variations of air surface temperature and to total precipitation over the Middle East. In order to find the possible correlation between

On Decompositions of Decision Function Quality Measure

open access: yesИзвестия Иркутского государственного университета: Серия "Математика", 2020
A comparative analysis of two approaches to the decomposition of quality criterion of decision functions is carried out. The first approach is the bias-variance decomposition.
