[HTML][HTML] The role of vector trait variation in vector-borne disease dynamics

LJ Cator, LR Johnson, EA Mordecai… - Frontiers in ecology …, 2020 - frontiersin.org
Many important endemic and emerging diseases are transmitted by vectors that are biting
arthropods. The functional traits of vectors can affect pathogen transmission rates directly …

The fluid mechanics of pyroclastic density currents

J Dufek - Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics, 2016 - annualreviews.org
Pyroclastic density currents are generated in explosive volcanic eruptions when gas and

Robust Gaussian stochastic process emulation

M Gu, X Wang, JO Berger - The Annals of Statistics, 2018 - JSTOR
We consider estimation of the parameters of a Gaussian Stochastic Process (GaSP), in the
context of emulation (approximation) of computer models for which the outcomes are real …

Parallel partial Gaussian process emulation for computer models with massive output

M Gu, JO Berger - The Annals of Applied Statistics, 2016 - JSTOR
We consider the problem of emulating (approximating) computer models (simulators) that
produce massive output. The specific simulator we study is a computer model of volcanic …
