The coverage of a sample of individuals from a biological community is deยฎned as the total relative abundance of the species represented in the sample. A simple estimator of coverage is based on the number of species represented in the sample by a single individual. This estimator works well when th

Parameter estimation algorithms assume implicitly that the system input and output are sampled simultaneously. But the multichannel data acquisition systems currently available employ time division multiplexing to sample the various channels. Thus, in practice, asynchronous sampling results. This st
The present study evaluates the precision of outlying percentile estimates, with age-and sex-associated variations and facilitates decisions needed to revise the current NCHS 1977 Growth Charts with regard to 1) the inclusion of 3 rd and 97 th percentiles and 2) the selection of survey data for the
By comparing the real reductions in fishing capacity of the European Union (EU) and the effects of technological efficiency, this paper presents the first comprehensive analysis since the creation of the Common Fisheries Policy (CFP). Using a standard methodology and a conservative value of 7 4.4% f
