A systematic investigation was made of the distribution of short wave radiation within the crown of an open-grown Douglas-fir tree. The study tree was 23 years old, 14 meters tall and had a maximum crown diameter of about ten meters. Global radiation was measured every 15 cm along eight different...
Tbc expanding complexity of database application worlds, and the accelerating pace of change of these worlds mandate data models which support some of the tasks of data interpretation which formerly were borne by the applications programs. Chief among these are the support for virtual data, definition of transactions, and enforcement...
Benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) is a common environmental pollutant produced from the incomplete combustion of organic matter, such as fossil fuel emissions. In vertebrates, B[a]P exposure is associated with hyperactivity, though the underlying mechanisms driving this effect are undescribed. Mounting evidence indicates that the gut microbiome, which is the diverse community of...
We describe spatio-temporal random processes using linear mixed models and discuss estimation, inference, and prediction under this formulation. We show how many commonly used covariances are special cases of this more general framework and pay special attention to the separable and product-sum covariances. The linear mixed model formulation facilitates straightforward...
