Integrated approaches to climate-crop modelling: needs and challenges.
This paper discusses the need for a more integrated approach to modelling changes in climate and crops, and some of the challenges posed by this. While changes in atmospheric composition are expected to exert an increasing radiative forcing of climate change leading to further warming of global mean temperatures and shifts in precipitation patterns, these are not the only climatic processes whi...
متن کاملMultiscale modelling: approaches and challenges.
Multiscale systems that are characterized by a great range of spatial–temporal scales arise widely in many scientific domains. These range from the study of protein conformational dynamics to multiphase processes in, for example, granular media or haemodynamics, and from nuclear reactor physics to astrophysics. Despite the diversity in subject areas and terminology, there are many common challe...
متن کاملPromise and peril in nanomedicine: the challenges and needs for integrated systems biology approaches to define health risk
In the 1966s visionary film 'Fantastic Voyage' a submarine crew was shrunk to 100 nm in size and injected into the body of an injured scientist to repair his damaged brain. The movie (written by Harry Kleiner; directed by Richard Fleischer; novel by Isaac Asimov) drew attention to the potential power of engineered nanoscale structures and devices to construct, monitor, control, treat, and repai...
متن کاملAntifungal drug development: challenges, unmet clinical needs, and new approaches.
Invasive, life-threatening fungal infections are an important cause of morbidity and mortality, particularly for patients with compromised immune function. The number of therapeutic options for the treatment of invasive fungal infections is quite limited when compared with those available to treat bacterial infections. Indeed, only three classes of molecules are currently used in clinical pract...
متن کاملBayesian Challenges in Integrated Catchment Modelling
Bayesian Networks (BNs) are increasingly being used as decision support tools to aid the management of the complex and uncertain domains of natural systems. They are particularly useful for addressing problems of natural resource management by complex data analysis and incorporation of expert knowledge. BNs are useful for clearly articulating both the assumptions and evidence behind the underst...
