  1. 1. Monotonic and Semiparametric Regression for the Detection of Trends in Environmental Quality Data

    Author : Mohamed Hussian; Anders Grimvall; Ali Hadi; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Normalisation; Monotonic; Semiparametric; Temporal trends; fluctuations; global; local; Matematisk statistik; Icke-parametriska metoder; Statistics; Statistik;

    Abstract : Natural fluctuations in the state of the environment can long conceal or distort important trends in the human impact on our ecosystems. Accordingly, there is increasing interest in statistical normalisation techniques that can clarify the anthropogenic effects by removing meteorologically driven fluctuations and other natural variation in time series of environmental quality data.

    Abstract : The whole-body content of radiocaesium was measured in a South-Swedish urban group of people residing in the city of Lund (55.7°N, 13.2°E) between 1960 and 1994. READ MORE

  3. 3. Statistical modelling and analyses of DNA sequence data with applications to metagenomics

    Author : Mariana Buongermino Pereira; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; generalised hidden Markov models; gene abundance data; metagenomics; statistical modelling; bioinformatics; normalisation; DNA sequence data; bioinformatics;

    Abstract : Microorganisms are organised in complex communities and are ubiquitous in all ecosystems, including natural environments and inside the human gut. Metagenomics, which is the direct sequencing of DNA from a sample, enables studying the collective genomes of the organisms that are there present. READ MORE

  4. 4. Just Environments : Politicising Sustainable Urban Development
