Abstract:
Spatial thunderstorm rainfall properties that are generally regarded as important in runoff production were studied over a range of basin scales within the USDA-ARS Walnut Gulch Experimental Watershed. Various storm geometric measures were computed from a fine 100 x 100 m grid via interpolation. Multiquadric and kriging interpolation methods were compared yielding similar results. The multiquadric method was selected for further interpolation due to its ease of application. Regression techniques were then employed to relate storm measures to watershed runoff.

Abstract:
The spatial response function (SRF) of the backscatter measurements for a radar scatterometer is often used in reconstruction. It has been found that in many cases the SRF can be approximated as a binary function that is 1 inside the - 6 dB contour of the SRF and 0 outside. This improves the computation speed of reconstruction. Computing the SRF contour can still be a lengthy computation, which can be simplified by precomputing and tabulating key SRF contours. The tabular parameterization for many spinning scatterometers, i.e., QuikSCAT, is straight-forward. For RapidSCAT, this estimation is m

Abstract:
RapidScat is a pencil-beam wind scatterometer which operated from September 2014 to August 2016. Mounted aboard the International Space Station (ISS), RapidScat experiences significant altitude and attitude variations over its dataset. These variations need to be properly accounted for to ensure accurate calibration and to produce high resolution scatterometer images. Both the antenna pose and the one-way antenna pattern need to be validated. The spatial response function (SRF) is the two-way antenna pattern for a scatterometer combined with the processing and filtering done in the radar syste

Covert shifts of attention are usually reflected in RT differences between responses to valid and invalid cues in the Posner spatial attention task.

Reaction time was generally faster on trials without microsaccades in the cue-target interval. If microsaccades occurred, the target-location congruency of t

Significant work has been done modeling cancerous tumor growth and response to therapy under certain simplifying assumptions, specifically, the assumption of spatial homogeneity. We have chosen a spatially heterogenous model for cancer cell growth using a hybrid Lattice-Gas Cellular Automata method.

The model implementation is verified qualitatively and is modified to execute on a parallel computer.

These programs typically rely on the assumption that environmental conditions are the sole drivers of biological communities occupying a site and, thus, these local communities would correctly inform about environmental conditions.
