ON RIGOROUS DROUGHT ASSESSMENT USING DAILY TIME SCALE: NON-STATIONARY FREQUENCY ANALYSES, REVISITED CONCEPTS, AND A NEW METHOD TO YIELD NON-PARAMETRIC INDICES

Some of the problems in drought assessments are that: analyses tend to focus on coarse temporal scales, many of the methods yield skewed indices, a few terminologies are ambiguously used, and analyses comprise an implicit assumption that the observations come from a stationary process.To solve these problems, this paper introduces non-stationary fr

Pod shatter is a trait of agricultural relevance that ensures plants dehisce seeds in their native environment and has been subjected to domestication and selection for non-shattering types in several broadacre crops.However, pod shattering causes a significant yield reduction in canola (Brassica napus L.) crops.An interspecific breeding line BC950

To counter HIV latency, it is important to develop a better understanding of the full range of host factors promoting latency.Their identification could suggest new strategies to reactivate latent proviruses and subsequently kill the host cells ("shock and kill"), or to dragon ball lg disney permanently silence these latent proviruses ("block and l
