It covers (1) robust index development for effective drought monitoring; (2) risk analysis framework development and early warning systems; (3) impact investigations on hydrological and agricultural sectors; (4) environmental change impact analyses. The articles in the Special Issue cover a wide geographic range, across China, Taiwan, Korea, and the Indo-China peninsula, which covers many contrasting climate conditions. Hence, the results have global implications: the data, analysis/modeling, methodologies, and conclusions lay a solid foundation for enhancing our scientific knowledge of drought mechanisms and relationships to various environmental conditions.History of engineering and technologybicsscARIMA modelartificial neural networkassessmentatmospheric teleconnection patternsbivariate frequency analysisChinaclimate changeclimate variabilitycomprehensive drought monitoringdroughtdrought forecastingdrought predictiondrought return perioddrought riskextreme droughtextreme spring droughtforecastingGAMLSSglobal warmingHubei Provincehuman activitieshydrologic riskIndian Ocean DipoleIndochina Peninsulaintentionally biased bootstrap methodmaize yieldmeteorological droughtmultisource datamultivariatenonstationarityquantitative attributionreference periodreference precipitationseasonal droughtSongliao Plain maize beltsouthern TaiwanSPIstandardized precipitation evapotranspiration indexstochastic modelHistory of engineering and technologyKim Tae-Woongedt1329481Kim Tae-WoongothBOOK9910557738803321The Drought Risk Analysis, Forecasting, and Assessment under Climate Change3039498UNINA04723nam 22005535 450 991096200570332120250731082256.01-4612-0683-910.1007/978-1-4612-0683-5(CKB)3400000000089225(SSID)ssj0000805378(PQKBManifestationID)11425188(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000805378(PQKBWorkID)10835479(PQKB)10769617(DE-He213)978-1-4612-0683-5(MiAaPQ)EBC3074443(PPN)238007316(EXLCZ)99340000000008922520121227d1998 u| 0engurnn#008mamaatxtccrBusiness Analysis Using Regression A Casebook /by Robert A.

It typically has the reputation ofbeing aboring, complicated, and confusing mix of mathematical formulas and computers. Our goal in writing this casebook and the companion volume (Basic Business Statistics) was to change that impression by showing how statistics gives insights and answers interesting business questions. Rather than dwell on underlying formulas, we show how to use statistics to answer questions. Each case study begins with a business question and concludes with an answer. Formulas appear only as needed to address the questions, and we focus on the insights into the problem provided by the mathematics. The mathematics serves a purpose. The material is organized into 12 "classes" of related case studies that develop a single, key idea of statistics. The analysis of data using statistics is seldom very straightforward, and each analysis has many nuances. Part ofthe appeal ofstatistics is this richness, this blending of substantive theories and mathematics. For a newcomer, however, this blend is too rich and they are easily overwhelmed and unable to sort out the important ideas from nuances. Although later cases in these notes suggest this complexity, we do not begin that way. Each class has one main idea, something big like standard error. We begin a class by discussing an application chosen to motivate this key concept, and introduce the necessary terminology.StatisticsStatisticsStatistics.Statistics.300/.1/519536Stine Robert A.authttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut117587Foster Dean P.authttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autWaterman Richard P.authttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910962005703321Business Analysis Using Regression4411768UNINA
