It has been the purpose of the present paper to investigate and explore the conditions under which the linear relation between Delta/C(D) (0) and Delta in the Hanna-Ashbaugh-Foster-Fyfe equation for the evaluation of equilibrium constants holds, (C(D) (0) is initial concentration of a donor and Delta is the observed chemical shift relative to the chemical shift of the acceptor) to obtain the eq...

Chlorites from (1) hydrothermal veins composed of quartz and/or carbonate that cross-cut unmetamorphosed to epizonally metamorphosed Variscan flysch sequences in the Nízký Jeseník Upland, (2) Alpine-type veins in amphibolites and gneisses of the Sobotín region, and (3) pegmatites of the Žulová massif and Strzegom-Sobótka massif were studied by chemical methods to elucidate the conditions of the...

[1] The impacts of stratospheric ozone depletion on the extremes of daily precipitation in the austral summer are explored using two global climate models. Both models indicate that stratospheric ozone losses since the late 1970s may have increased the frequency and intensity of very heavy precipitation in austral summer over southern high and subtropical latitudes, and may have decreased the f...

[1] I show that the latest series of climate models reproduce the observed mid-depth Southern Ocean warming since the 1950s if they include time-varying changes in anthropogenic greenhouse gases, sulphate aerosols and volcanic aerosols in the Earth’s atmosphere. The remarkable agreement between observations and state-of-the art climate models suggests significant human influence on Southern Oce...

An extension of the infomax algorithm of Bell & Sejnowski (1995) is presented that is able to separate the mixed suband super-Gaussian source distributions. The same learning rule has been derived by Giiolami & Fyfe (1997) from the negentropy perspective for projection pursuit. Using a Laplacian prior we also propose a learning rule that is especially convenient to realize in hardware. The natu...

We consider several stochastic process methods for performing canonical correlation analysis (CCA). The first uses a Gaussian Process formulation of regression in which we use the current projection of one data set as the target for the other and then repeat in the opposite direction. The second uses a method which relies on probabilistically sphering the data, concatenating the two streams and...
