Extensive past Distributions Floral Elements: Macrofossil
The past geographical positions and climates of the high latitude Southern Hemisphere land masses (New Zealand and the southern parts of South America and Australia) arc crucial to an understanding of plant evolulion migrali.on the region. A review of the macrofossil record reveals nmny exanlpies of taxa which arc present as fossils on one ur of the!;e land masses but now occur elsewhere in the...
متن کاملBayesian optimization for computationally extensive probability distributions
An efficient method for finding a better maximizer of computationally extensive probability distributions is proposed on the basis of a Bayesian optimization technique. A key idea of the proposed method is to use extreme values of acquisition functions by Gaussian processes for the next training phase, which should be located near a local maximum or a global maximum of the probability distribut...
متن کاملGeneralized Non-extensive Statistical Distributions
We find the value of constants related to constraints in characterization of some known statistical distributions and then we proceed to use the idea behind maximum entropy principle to derive generalized version of this distributions using the Tsallis’ and Renyi information measures instead of the well-known Bolztmann-Gibbs-Shannon. These generalized distributions will depend on q ∈ R and in t...
متن کاملMacrofossil evidence for a rapid and severe Cretaceous–Paleogene mass extinction in Antarctica
Debate continues about the nature of the Cretaceous-Paleogene (K-Pg) mass extinction event. An abrupt crisis triggered by a bolide impact contrasts with ideas of a more gradual extinction involving flood volcanism or climatic changes. Evidence from high latitudes has also been used to suggest that the severity of the extinction decreased from low latitudes towards the poles. Here we present a r...
متن کاملPlant macrofossil evidence for an early onset of the Holocene summer thermal maximum in northernmost Europe
Holocene summer temperature reconstructions from northern Europe based on sedimentary pollen records suggest an onset of peak summer warmth around 9,000 years ago. However, pollen-based temperature reconstructions are largely driven by changes in the proportions of tree taxa, and thus the early-Holocene warming signal may be delayed due to the geographical disequilibrium between climate and tre...
