Empirical Modeling and Its Applications. Chapter 2: The Empirical Models to Correct Water Column Effects for Optically Shallow Water
(INTECH Open Access Publisher, 2016)Seagrass as one of the blue carbon sinks plays an important role in environment, and it can be tracked remotely in the optically shallow water. Usually the signals of seagrass are weak which can be confused with the water ... -
Empirical Modeling and Its Applications. Chapter 3: Least Squares Method and Empirical Modeling: A Case Study in a Mexican Manufacturing Firm
(INTECH Open Access Publisher, 2016)Empirical modeling (EM) has been a useful approach for the analysis of different problems across a number of areas/fields of knowledge. As is known, this type of modeling is particularly helpful when parametric models due ... -
Empirical Modeling and Its Applications. Chapter 4: Applied Hydrological Modeling with the Use of Geoinformatics: Theory and Practice
(INTECH Open Access Publisher, 2016)Water resource management and catchment analysis are crucial aspects of the twenty-first century in hydrological and environmental sciences. Linked directly with studies and research about climate change effects in global ... -
Empirical Modeling and Its Applications. Chapter 5: Critical Loss Analyses in Korean Liquor Mergers
(INTECH Open Access Publisher, 2016)The SSNIP(Small but Significant Nontransitory Increase in Price) test is a well-known conceptual framework of market definition for competition policies in most countries. Critical loss analysis is a practical method that ... -
Empirical Modeling and Its Applications. Chapter 6: A Comparison between the Presence and Absence of Regulation in the Spanish Electricity Market
(INTECH Open Access Publisher, 2016)There is an important gap in the literature on the promotion of competition in electricity markets in what pertains to the analysis of two different streams: the absence and presence of regulation. Accordingly, the main ... -
Enabling quaternion derivatives
(The Royal Society, 2015)Quaternion derivatives exist only for a very restricted class of analytic (regular) functions however, in many applications, functions of interest are real-valued and hence not analytic, a typical case being the standard ... -
Endocranial and masticatory muscle volumes in myostatin-deficient mice
(The Royal Society, 2014)Structural and functional trade-offs are integral to the evolution of the mammalian skull and its development. This paper examines the potential for enlargement of the masticatory musculature to limit the size of the ... -
Engineering: An Introduction for High School
(CK-12 Foundation, 2014)Much of our modern society depends on engineered artifacts to function, but many members of modern society are not aware of the engineering techniques and practices that have developed the technology and infrastructure on ... -

Environmental offsets, resilience and cost effective conservation
(2015)Conservation management agencies are faced with acute trade-offs when dealing with disturbance from human activities. We show how agencies can respond to permanent ecosystem disruption by managing for Pimm resilience within ... -
Error and bias in size estimates of whale sharks: implications for understanding demography
(2016)Body size and age at maturity are indicative of the vulnerability of a species to extinction. However, they are both difficult to estimate for large animals that cannot be restrained for measurement. For very large species ... -
Escaping the tragedy of the commons through targeted punishment
(The Royal Society, 2015)Failures of cooperation cause many of society’s gravest problems. It is well known that cooperation among many players faced with a social dilemma can be maintained thanks to the possibility of punishment, but achieving ... -

Estimating cranial musculoskeletal constraints in theropod dinosaurs
(2015)Many inferences on the biology, behaviour and ecology of extinct vertebrates are based on the reconstruction of the musculature and rely considerably on its accuracy. Although the advent of digital reconstruction techniques ... -
Estimating uncertainty and reliability of social network data using Bayesian inference
(2015)Social network analysis provides a useful lens through which to view the structure of animal societies, and as a result its use is increasingly widespread. One challenge that many studies of animal social networks face is ... -
Estimation of self motion duration and distance in rodents
