Improving the quality of satellite imagery based on ground-truth data from rain gauge stations
Multitemporal imagery is by and large geometrically and radiometrically accurate, but the residual noise arising from removal clouds and other atmospheric and electronic effects can produce outliers that must be mitigated ... -
Induction of radiata pine somatic embryogenesis at high temperatures provokes a long-term decrease in DNA methylation/hydroxymethylation and differential expression of stress-related genes
Based on the hypothesis that embryo development is a crucial stage for the formation of stable epigenetic marks that could modulate the behaviour of the resulting plants, in this study, radiata pine somatic embryogenesis ... -
Interpolation of the mean anomalies for cloud filling in land surface temperature and normalized difference vegetation index
When monitoring time series of remote sensing data, it is advisable to fill gaps, i.e., missing or distorted data, caused by atmospheric effects or technical failures. In this paper, a new method for filling these gaps ... -
An introduction to the spatio-temporal analysis of satellite remote sensing data for geostatisticians
Satellite remote sensing data have become available in meteorology, agriculture, forestry, geology, regional planning, hydrology or natural environment sciences since several decades ago, because satellites provide routinely ... -
Locally adaptive change-point detection (LACPD) with applications to environmental changes
We propose an adaptive-sliding-window approach (LACPD) for the problem of change-point detection in a set of time-ordered observations. The proposed method is combined with sub-sampling techniques to compensate for the ... -
Multivariate Bayesian spatio-temporal P-spline models to analyze crimes against women
Univariate spatio-temporal models for areal count data have received great attention in recent years for estimating risks. However, models for studying multivariate responses are less commonly used mainly due to the ... -
On the performances of trend and change-point detection methods for remote sensing data
Detecting change-points and trends are common tasks in the analysis of remote sensing data. Over the years, many different methods have been proposed for those purposes, including (modified) Mann-Kendall and Cox-Stuart ... -
Online relative risks/rates estimation in spatial and spatio-temporal disease mapping
Background and objective: Spatial and spatio-temporal analyses of count data are crucial in epidemiology and other fields to unveil spatial and spatio-temporal patterns of incidence and/or mortality risks. However, fitting ... -
Pinus spp. somatic embryo conversion under high temperature: effect on the morphological and physiological characteristics of plantlets
Climatic variations in the current environmental scenario require plants with tolerance to sudden changes in temperature and a decrease in water availability. Accordingly, this tolerance will enable successful plantations ... -
Predicting cancer incidence in regions without population-based cancer registries using mortality
Cancer incidence numbers are routinely recorded by national or regional population-based cancer registries (PBCRs). However, in most southern European countries, the local PBCRs cover only a fraction of the country. ... -
Small area estimation of gender-based violence: rape incidence risks in Uttar Pradesh, India
Violence against women is considered an endemic problem in communities and countries around the world, and it has been declared an issue of epidemic proportions by the World Health Organization (WHO). In India, where the ... -
Small area variations in non-affective first-episode psychosis: the role of socioeconomic and environmental factors
(Springer, 2023) Artículo / ArtikuluaBackground: There is strong evidence supporting the association between environmental factors and increased risk of non-affective psychotic disorders. However, the use of sound statistical methods to account for spatial ... -
Software tools and statistical methods for downloading, processing, and analysing satellite images
El principal objetivo de esta tesis es la introducción y desarrollo de métodos estadísticos en imágenes satelitales para mejorar el procesamiento, suavizado, predicción, e inferencia de los datos de teledetección. Este ... -
Space-time analysis of ovarian cancer mortality rates by age groups in Spanish provinces (1989-2015)
Background: Ovarian cancer is a silent and largely asymptomatic cancer, leading to late diagnosis and worse prognosis. The late-stage detection and low survival rates, makes the study of the space-time evolution of ovarian ... -
Space-time interactions in bayesian disease mapping with recent tools: making things easier for practitioners
Spatio-temporal disease mapping studies the distribution of mortality or incidence risks in space and its evolution in time, and it usually relies on fitting hierarchical Poisson mixed models. These models are complex for ... -
Spatial gender-age-period-cohort analysis of pancreatic cancer mortality in Spain (1990-2013)
Recently, the interest in studying pancreatic cancer mortality has increased due to its high lethality. In this work a detailed analysis of pancreatic cancer mortality in Spanish provinces was performed using recent data. ... -
Steering the synthesis of Fe3O4 nanoparticles under sonication by using a fractional factorial design
Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (MNPs) have the potential to act as heat sources in magnetic hyperthermia. The key parameter for this application is the specific absorption rate (SAR), which must be as large as ... -
Stochastic spatio-temporal models for analysing NDVI distribution of GIMMS NDVI3g images
The normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) is an important indicator for evaluating vegetation change, monitoring land surface fluxes or predicting crop models. Due to the great availability of images provided by ... -
Tailoring the structural and magnetic properties of Co-Zn nanosized ferrites for hyperthermia applications
A comparative study of the magnetic properties (magnetic moment, magnetocrystalline anisotropy) and hyperthermia response in Co-Zn spinel nanoparticles is presented. The CoxZn1-xFe2O4 nanoparticles (x = 1, 0.5, 0.4, 0.3, ... -
Temperature and water availability during maturation affect the cytokinins and auxins profile of radiata pine somatic embryos
Somatic embryogenesis (SE) provides us a potent biotechnological tool to manipulate the physical and chemical conditions (water availability) along the process and to study their effect in the final success in terms of ...
