A nonparametric wet/dry spell model for resampling daily precipitation
A nonparametric wet/dry spell model is developed for resampling daily precipitation at a site. The model considers alternating sequences of wet and dry days in a given season of the year. All marginal, joint, and conditional probability densities of interest (e.g., dry spell length, wet spell length, precipitation amount, and wet spell length given prior to dry spell length) are estimated nonpa...

extinguished by the transfer. But the extent of the transformation is not yet clear. “It’s possible that what we are doing is turning everything into an oocyte,” says Gurdon. But he believes that oct4 expression is a good sign that the cells are at least headed toward becoming stem cells. Stem cell characteristics may develop only through sequential inductive events. But the optimists are hopin...
متن کاملCONCEPT Surviving Mass Extinctions Through Biomineralized DNA
Even in the worst of conditions, such as those which occurred during mass extinction events, life on Earth never totally stopped. Aggressive chemical and physical attacks able to sterilize or poison living organisms occurred repeatedly. Surprisingly, DNA was not degraded, denatured or modified to the point of losing the capability of transferring the genetic information to the next generations....
متن کاملSurviving a Dry Future: Abscisic Acid (ABA)-Mediated Plant Mechanisms for Conserving Water under Low Humidity
Angiosperms are able to respond rapidly to the first sign of dry conditions, a decrease in air humidity, more accurately described as an increase in the vapor pressure deficit between the leaf and the atmosphere (VPD), by abscisic acid (ABA)-mediated stomatal closure. The genes underlying this response offer valuable candidates for targeted selection of crop varieties with improved drought tole...
متن کاملA Novel Binary Spell Checker
In this paper we propose a simple, flexible and efficient hybrid spell checking methodology based upon phonetic matching, supervised learning and associative matching in the AURA neural system. We evaluate our approach against several benchmark spell-checking algorithms for recall accuracy. Our proposed hybrid methodology has the joint highest top 10 recall rate of the techniques evaluated. The...
