Then, based on the occurrence areas of dce blast in Enshi District during 1995 -2004, the new model and unbiased GM (1, 1 ) model are applied to predict the occurrence areas of rice blast during 2005 -2010. Predicting outcomes show that the prediction accuracy of five-point unbiased sliding optimized GM (1, 1 ) model is higher than the unbiased GM (1,1) model. Finally, combined with the prediction results, the author provides some suggestion for Enshi District in the prevention and control of rice blast in 2010.展开更多

The model is calibrated by simulating point measurements of mass bal- ance, mass balance profiles, and mean specific mass balance during 1987/1988-1996/1997. The opti- mized parameters are obtained by using a least square method to make the model fit the measured mass balance through the model calibration. The model validation (1997/1998-2007/2008) indicates that the modeled results are in good agreement with the observations. The static mass balance sensitiv- ity of Urumqi Glacier No. 1 is analyzed by computing the mass balance of the glacier for a temperature increase of 1℃, with and without a 5% precipitation increase, and the values for the east branch are -0.80 and -0.87 m w.e. a-1℃-1, respectively, and for the west branch, the values are -0.68 and -0.74 m w.e. a-1℃-1, respectively. Moreover, the analysis of the parameter stability indicates that the parame- ters in the model determined from the current climate condition can be applied in the prediction of the future mass balance changes for the glacier and provide a reference for extending the model to other small glaciers in western China.展开更多

The present study investigated the relationship between dopaminergic neuronal damage, iron content changes, and divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT1) in the midbrain SN of PD rats to explore the relationship between time of iron deposition and DMT1 expression. Frozen midbrain SN sections from model rats were stained with Perls' iron. Results showed massive loss of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH)-positive cells in the SN and increased DMT1 expression in model group rats. No obvious iron deposition was observed in the SN during early stages after damage, but significant iron deposition was detected at 8 weeks post-injury. Results demonstrate that the loss of TH-positive cells in the SN appeared simultaneously with increased DMT1 expression. Extensive iron deposition occurred at 8 weeks post injury, which could be regarded as an early time window of iron deposition.展开更多

As this particular nutrient is not included in the activated sludge model no. 1 (ASM1), this study extended this model in order to determine the fate of phosphorus during the biodegradation processes. When some of the kinetics parameters are modified using observed data from the restoration project of the Xuxi River in Wuxi City, China, from August 25 to 31 in 2009, the extended model shows excellent results. In order to obtain optimum values of coefficients of nitrogen and phosphorus, the mass fraction method was used to ensure that the final results were reasonable and practically relevant. The temporal distribution of the data calculated with the extended ASM1 approximates that of the observed data.展开更多

It is effective for monotone series, and its simulating effect is good and error is small. However, If the series dosen’ t havea property of monotone, the simulating effect of GM(1,1) is not fine, and its error gets bigger. In this paper, we use GM(2,1) to handle the oxcillation series, which uses the Method of Minimum Squares in determining the uncertain parameters.展开更多

In particular, we examine the performance for finite samples of three different estimators of simple Tobit model: the least squares (LS) estimator, the Heckman (H) estimator and the maximum likelihood (ML) estimator. These three estimators are consistent and asymptotically normal in the case where the density error is specified. However, these properties are sensitive to the situation where the error distribution is not specified. The purpose of this article is to determine properties of the three estimators, namely bias and convergence, by using Monte Carlo simulations.展开更多

It is assumed that the crystal field is either turned on with probability p or turned off with probability 1 p on the sites of a square lattice. Phase diagrams are then calculated on the reduced temperature crystal field planes for given values of γ=Ω/J and p at zero h. Thus, the effect of changing γ and p are illustrated on the phase diagrams in great detail and interesting results are observed.展开更多
