Abstract. The process of model evaluation is not only an integral part of model development and calibration but also of paramount importance when communicating modelling results to the scientific community and stakeholders. The modelling community has a large and well-tested toolbox of metrics to evaluate temporal model performance. In contrast, spatial performance evaluation does not correspond to the grand availability of spatial observations readily available and to the sophisticate model codes simulating the spatial variability of complex hydrological processes.

Abstract:
The present study characterized the spatial patterns of forest fires in 10 fire-dominated ecozones of Canada by using a database of mapped fires ≥200 ha from 1980 to 1999 (n = 5533 fires). Spatial metrics were used individually to compare measures of fire size, shape (eccentricity and complexity), clustering, and geographic orientation among ecozones and were used concurrently in a multivariate analysis. In addition, a set of factors that influence the fire regime at the ecozone level – topography, climate, fuels, and anthropogenic factors – was compared with the metric outputs. We found signi

Localized energy gradients and velocity shelters created by boulders, bars, and channel banks are often essential components of aquatic habitat. Two-dimensional hydraulic models have the potential to predict the amounts and locations of such spatially varying flow patterns. However, little effort has been devoted to reproducing these flow features and developing spatial habitat metrics to describe and differentiate between various types of flow patterns. Two-dimensional numerical simulations, based on actual channel geometry, are used here to model a variety of flow patterns encountered in nat

Abstract Spatial image quality metrics designed for camera systems generally employ the Modulation Transfer Function (MTF), the Noise Power Spectrum (NPS) and a visual contrast detection model. Prior art indicates that scene-dependent characteristics of non-linear, content-aware image processing are unaccounted for by MTFs and NPSs measured by traditional methods. The authors present two novel metrics: the log Noise Equivalent Quanta (log NEQ) and Visual log NEQ.

Moreover, the correspondence of the disparity spatial pattern between the different metrics is unclear. This research examines how three typical accessibility met

Abstract A common problem with modern numerical oceanographic models is spatial displacement, including misplacement and misshapenness of ocean circulation features. Traditional error metrics, such as least squares methods, are ineffective in many such cases; for example, only small errors in the location of a frontal pattern are translated to large differences in least squares of intensities. Such problems are common in meteorological forecast verification as well, so the application of spatial error metrics have been a recently popular topic there.

Abstract:
Abstract Tidal flood is one of the threats found in the coastal areas of Cirebon Regency, especially in Pangenan, Gebang and Losari Districts. The changing coastal conditions and the changing land use have worsened the tidal flood. The purpose of this research is to analyse the spatial pattern of land use change in the tidal flood area. This study uses spatial analysis and temporal and spatial metrics. Temporal, spatial analysis is used to see changes in land use in tidal flood areas in 2002, 2009, and 2019, while spatial metrics are used to see these patterns, especially aggregation and diver

Abstract:
BackgroundTumor associated macrophages (TAM) stimulate tumor proliferation and facilitate immune escape via production of immunosuppressive cytokines. We hypothesize that non-random spatial clustering of TAMs within the tumor are associated with poor survival in ccRCC patients.MethodsTumor specimens were obtained from 41 patients with metastatic ccRCC who received immunotherapy (IT). Sections from the tumor core underwent multiplex immunofluorescence staining for CD68, CD163, and CD206. Digital pathologic analysis was used to convert the digital images to spatial point pattern plots (PPP). Rip

Abstract:
Vegetation phenology and productivity play a crucial role in surface energy balance, plant and animal distribution, and animal movement and habitat use and can be measured with remote sensing metrics including start of season (SOS), peak instantaneous rate of green-up date (PIRGd), peak of season (POS), end of season (EOS), and integrated vegetation indices. However, for most metrics, we do not yet understand the agreement of remotely sensed data products with near-surface observations. We also need summaries of changes over time, spatial distribution, variability, and consistency in remote se

Abstract. Satellite-based earth observations offer great opportunities to improve spatial model predictions by means of spatial-pattern-oriented model evaluations. In this study, observed spatial patterns of actual evapotranspiration (AET) are utilised for spatial model calibration tailored to target the pattern performance of the model. The proposed calibration framework combines temporally aggregated observed spatial patterns with a new spatial performance metric and a flexible spatial parameterisation scheme. The mesoscale hydrologic model (mHM) is used to simulate streamflow and AET and ha

Abstract Cordue, P. L. 2012. Fishing intensity metrics for use in overfishing determination. – ICES Journal of Marine Science, 69: 615–623. The issue of constructing a technically correct fishing intensity metric from the output of a stock assessment model is considered. Four metrics of annual overall “fishing intensity” are defined. The metrics are applicable to age- or length-structured stock assessment models, which may, or may not, include complex spatial and temporal structure in the population and the fisheries. Two of the metrics are termed “direct” as they are calculated from the model

Abstract:
Long-standing results demonstrate that, if policy choices are defined in spaces with more than one dimension, majority-rule equilibrium fails to exist for a general class of smooth preference profiles. This article shows that if agents perceive political similarity and difference in ‘city block’ terms, then the dimension-by-dimension median can be a majority-rule equilibrium even in spaces with an arbitrarily large number of dimensions and it provides necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of such an equilibrium. This is important because city block preferences accord more close

Abstract Climate change has become an environmental issue that has received the most attention because it affects all aspects of life. One of the factors causing climate change is deforestation which continues to occur, especially in tropical countries like Indonesia. Indonesia is a country that has a high rate of deforestation that occurs in large islands including the island of Sulawesi as the Wallacea Region. Central Sulawesi Province has had the largest area of deforestation among other provinces on Sulawesi Island in the last three decades (1990-2020). Analysis of the rate of deforestatio
