Advances in Spatio-Temporal Modeling and Prediction for Environmental Risk Assessment

چکیده
Meteorological readings, hydrological parameters and many measures of air, soil and water pollution are often collected for a certain span, regularly in time, and at different survey stations of a monitoring network. Then, these observations can be viewed as realizations of a random function with a spatio-temporal variability. In this context, the arrangement of valid models for spatio-temporal prediction and environmental risk assessment is strongly required. Spatio-temporal models might be used for different goals: optimization of sampling design network, prediction at unsampled spatial locations or unsampled time points and computation of maps of predicted values, assessing the uncertainty of predicted values starting from the experimental measurements, trend detection in space and time, particularly important to cope with risks coming from concentrations of hazardous pollutants. Hence, more and more attention is given to spatio-temporal analysis in order to sort out these issues.

Assessment of Neonate's Congenital Hypothyroidism Pattern Using Poisson Spatio-temporal Model in Disease Mapping under the Bayesian Paradigm during 2011-18 in Guilan, Iran
Background: Congenital Hypothyroidism (CH) is one of the reasons for mental retardation and defective growth in neonates. It can be treated if it is diagnosed early. The congenital hypothyroidism can be diagnosed using newborn screening in the first days after birth. Disease mapping helps to identify high-risk areas of the disease. This study aimed to evaluate the pattern of CH using the Poisso...
