The Mg/Ca–temperature relationship in brachiopod shells: Calibrating a potential palaeoseasonality proxy
Abstract Brachiopods are long-lived, long-ranging, extant organisms, of which some groups precipitate a relatively diagenetically stable low magnesium calcite shell. Previous work has suggested that the incorporation of Mg into brachiopod calcite...

Changes in the variance of a soil property along a transect, a comparison of a non-stationary linear mixed model and a wavelet transform
Abstract The wavelet transform and the linear mixed model with spectral tempering are two methods which have been used to analyse soil data without assumptions of stationarity in the variance. In this paper both methods are compared on a single data ...

Evaluation of surface water quality and heavy metal indices of Ismailia Canal, Nile River, Egypt
Abstract Ismailia Canal is one of the most important branches of the Nile River in Egypt. It is the main source of drinking and irrigation water for many cities. Weighted arithmetic method of water quality index (WQI) was used to evaluate the water...

Impact of precipitation forecast uncertainties and initial soil moisture conditions on a probabilistic flood forecasting chain
Summary One of the main difficulties that flood forecasters are faced with is evaluating how errors and uncertainties in forecasted precipitation propagate into streamflow forecast. These errors, must be combined with the effects of different...
