Abstract:
Forest fragmentation is a continuing global concern. Human development destroys forest habitat, which separates and isolates forest fragments, decreases animal movement between fragments, reduces animal abundance and alters community composition. Forests are also becoming increasingly fragmented by linear forest clearings, such as roads, which are widespread throughout forests in tropical, temperate and boreal forest biomes. The ecological effects of roads have been well documented, but forests also contain extensive networks of non-road linear forest clearings (linear clearings hereafter). Fo

Abstract:
Various criteria are discussed and as algorithms for obtaining optimal designs for use in linear regression. Linear regression is used widely and effectively in forestry but the method of quantifying the linear relationship in terms of selecting observations or designing an experiment to obtain observations is often inefficient. The experiment or study objectives must be identified to develop a criterion for comparing designs. Then a method of obtaining observations can be found which performs well under this criterion. Biometricians in forestry have been slow to take advantage of one of the

Under relatively mild assumptions on the structure of the random variables present in the problem, the value function at every time stage is shown to be jointly convex in the history of the process, namely the random variables observed so far as well as the decisions taken up to that point. Convexity enables the construction of both upper and lower bounds on the value of the entire problem by suitable discretization of the random variables. These bounds are developed in Chapte

Historically, these have often been various cell-surface proteins, which are fairly easy to assay biochemically but are not necessarily causative of the cell type, in the sense of being master t

Abstract:
In Sweden, it is Eurocode 2 which forms the basis for performing a design of concrete structures, in which methods can be found treating the subject of restrained concrete members and cracking in the serviceability limit state. In the code, both detailed hand calculations procedures as well as simplified methods are described. Several proposal of how to treat base restrained structures can be found in other codes and reports. Some state that the procedure given in Eurocode 2 is on the unsafe side as the method relies on stabilized cracking, while some say that the method is over conservative a

Abstract:
A comparative study of two different approaches in wind energy simulations has been made where the aim was to investigate the performance of two commercially available tools. The study includes the linear model by WAsP and the computational fluid dynamic model of WindSim (also featuring an additional forest module). The case studied is a small wind farm located in the inland of Sweden featuring a fairly complex and forested terrain. The results showed similar estimations from both tools and in some cases an advantage for WindSim. The site terrain is however deemed not complex enough to manifes

Abstract:
O setor agrícola é, historicamente, um dos pilares da economia brasileira, e apesar de ter sua importância diminuída com o desenvolvimento do setor industrial e de serviços ainda é responsável por dar dinamismo econômico ao país, bem como garantir a segurança alimentar, auxiliar no controle da inflação e na formação de reservas monetárias. Neste contexto as safras agrícolas exercem grande influência no comportamento do setor e equilíbrio no mercado agrícola. Foram desenvolvidas diversas metodologias de previsão de safra, sendo em sua maioria modelos de simulação de crescimento. Entretanto, rec

Mestrado em Econometria Aplicada e Previsão<br>Este trabalho analisa empiricamente o desempenho de vários modelos lineares na média condicional (ou seja, de um regime) por comparação com modelos que assumem alterações de regime, do tipo Markov de ordem um. Em termos de variância condicional acomodam-se várias hipóteses, como a dependência do nível da taxa de juro, de efeitos GARCH ou dos dois factores em simultâneo. A variável em estudo é a taxa de juro nominal a 10 anos da Alemanha. A evidência encontrada foi no sentido de que quer a presença de efeitos GARCH, quer a possibilidade de alteraçã
