Stress testing pension funds—researchers present technique based on hidden Markov regime switching model
"We wanted to investigate how second pillar pension funds react to financial crises and how to protect them from the crises," says Kaunas University of Technology (KTU) professor Dr. Audrius Kabašinskas, who, together with his team, discovered a way.....»»
Leading-edge model predicts impact of river plants on flood level
River plants provide ecological and environmental benefits, but they raise flood risk by blocking the flow during heavy rain. Removing woody riparian vegetation patches is a primary flood prevention method, but it threatens stream's biodiversity. The.....»»
El Niño forecasts extended to 18 months with physics-based model
Across Asia, the Pacific Ocean, and the Americas, El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) brings variations in winds, weather, and ocean temperature that can cause droughts, floods, crop failures, and food shortages. Recently, the world has experienced.....»»
New model uses fewer measurements to determine level of pharmaceutical residues in wastewater
It is becoming increasingly obvious that pharmaceutical residues in wastewater are damaging to the environment, making it imperative that wastewater is tested for such residues. However, wastewater measurements are expensive and time-consuming......»»
Researchers develop highly accurate carbohydrate binding site prediction algorithm, DeepGlycanSite
