Shifting Global Invasive Potential of European Plants with Climate Change
(Public Library of Science, 2008-06-18)Global climate change and invasions by nonnative species rank among the top concerns for agents of biological loss in coming decades. Although each of these themes has seen considerable attention in the modeling and ... -
Shifting suitability for malaria vectors across Africa with warming climates
(BioMed Central Ltd, 2009-05-10)Background Climates are changing rapidly, producing warm climate conditions globally not previously observed in modern history. Malaria is of great concern as a cause of human mortality and morbidity, particularly across ... -
THE IMPACT OF WORK UNIT AND ORGANIZATION SUPPORT ON HOSPITAL PATIENT SAFETY
(University of Kansas, 2009-01-27)Based on the construct of a culture of safety, the study purpose was to discern the relationships between Organization Support (OS) and Work Unit Support (WS) on Hospital Patient Safety. OS and WS were operationalized ... -
The evolution of shallow seismic exploration methods
(Environmental and Engineering Geophysical Society, 1995-07)Near-surface seismic methods have developed considerably and have been applied much more widely since the 1970s. Improvements in instrumentation, along with cheaper computer power, have greatly affected the capabilities ... -
Use of Radio Frequency Identification for Targeted Advertising: A Collaborative Filtering Approach Using Bayesian Networks
(Springer-Verlag, Berlin, 2007-07)This article discusses a potential application of radio frequency identification (RFID) and collaborative filtering for targeted advertising in grocery stores. Every day hundreds of items in grocery stores are marked down ... -
Decision Making with Hybrid Influence Diagrams Using Mixtures of Truncated Exponentials
(Elsevier, 2008-04-01)Mixtures of truncated exponentials (MTE) potentials are an alternative to discretization for representing continuous chance variables in influence diagrams. Also, MTE potentials can be used to approximate utility functions. ... -
Arc Reversals in Hybrid Bayesian Networks with Deterministic Variables
(Elsevier, 2009-05)This article discusses arc reversals in hybrid Bayesian networks with deterministic variables. Hybrid Bayesian networks contain a mix of discrete and continuous chance variables. In a Bayesian network representation, a ... -

Geographic variation in size and coloration in the Turdus poliocephalus complex: A first review of species limits
(Natural History Museum, The University of Kansas, 2007-09-12)Among the most dramatically variable of bird species under the traditional polytypic ‘biological' species concept is Turdus poliocephalus Latham 1801, which is distributed across parts of Southeast Asia and Oceania. This ... -
Near-surface seismic reflection applications
(ICEEG, 2004)Nonintrusive methods of gaining knowledge about the Earth’s subsurface comprise several of the procedures used routinely in near-surface seismology, including reflection, refraction, and surface-wave analysis. During the ... -
