How robust are the estimated effects of air pollution on health? Accounting for model uncertainty using Bayesian model averaging
Abstract The long-term impact of air pollution on human health can be estimated from small-area ecological studies in which the health outcome is regressed against air pollution concentrations and other covariates, such as socio-economic...

3D palaeogeographic reconstructions of the Phanerozoic versus sea-level and Sr-ratio variations
Abstract A full global geodynamical model over 600 million years (Ma) has been developed at the University of Lausanne during the past 20 years. We show herein how the 2D maps were converted into 3D (i.e., full hypsometry and bathymetry), using a...
