Thermodynamics and Time–averages
For a dynamical system far from equilibrium, one has to deal with empirical probabilities defined through time–averages, and the main problem is then how to formulate an appropriate statistical thermodynamics. The common answer is that the standard functional expression of Boltzmann-Gibbs for the entropy should be used, the empirical probabilities being substituted for the Gibbs measure. Other ...
متن کاملLong-Range Predictability in the Tropics. Part I: Monthly Averages
The sensitivity to initial and boundary conditions of monthly mean tropical long-range forecasts (1–14 weeks) during Northern Hemisphere winter is studied with a numerical model. Five predictability experiments with different combinations of initial conditions and prescribed ocean boundary conditions are conducted in order to investigate the temporal and spatial characteristics of the perfect m...
متن کاملEstimating Customer and Time Averages
In this paper we establish a joint central limit theorem for customer and time averages by applying a martingale central limit theorem in a Markov framework. The limiting values of the two averages appear in the translation terms. This central limit theorem helps to construct confidence intervals for estimators and perform statistical tests. It thus helps determine which finite average is a mor...
متن کاملForensic entomology and climatic change.
Forensic entomology establishes the postmortem interval (PMI) by studying cadaveric fauna. The PMI today is still largely based on tables of insect succession on human cadavers compiled in the late 19th- or mid-20th centuries. In the last few years, however, the gradual warming of the climate has been changing faunal communities by favouring the presence of thermophilous species. To demonstrate...
متن کاملIran's Climatic Change in the Holocene
Introduction Paleoclimatics studies can respond the many uncertainties about past climate change; an issue that is being studied seriously in the world but less attention has been paid in Iran. The Late Quaternary can be considered as Holocene. Holocene, which spans over 11,000 years ago; In general, it is considered as a period with relatively warm and stable climatic conditions. However, rec...
