Bayesian QTL mapping using skewed Student-tdistributions
(2002-01-15)In most QTL mapping studies, phenotypes are assumed to follow normal distributions. Deviations from this assumption may lead to detection of false positive QTL. To improve the robustness of Bayesian QTL mapping methods, ... -
A Model to Predict the Impact of Specification Changes on Chloride-Induced Corrosion Service Life of Virginia Bridge Decks
(Virginia Center for Transportation Innovation and Research, 2002-10)A model to determine the time to first repair and subsequent rehabilitation of concrete bridge decks exposed to chloride deicer salts that recognizes and incorporates the statistical nature of factors affecting the corrosion ... -

Die-off of E. coli and enterococci in dairy cowpats
(American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers, 2008)E. coli and enterococci re-growth and decay patterns in cowpats applied to pasturelands were monitored during the spring, summer fall, and winter First-order approximations were used to determine die-off rate coefficients ... -

Biosurveillance: Detecting, Tracking, and Mitigating the Effects of Natural Disease and Bioterrorism
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2008)Biosurveillance is the regular collection, analysis, and interpretation of health and health-related data for indicators of diseases and other outbreaks by public health organizations. Motivated by the threat of bioterrorism, ... -
Comparing syndromic surveillance detection methods: EARS' versus a CUSUM-based methodology.
(2008-07-30)This paper compares the performance of three detection methods, entitled C1, C2, and C3, that are implemented in the early aberration reporting system (EARS) and other syndromic surveillance systems versus the CUSUM applied ... -
Assessing the Effects of Individual Augmentation (IA) on Active Component Navy Enlisted and Officer Retention
(Naval Postgraduate School, 2008-08)This report summarizes the results of an analysis of whether individual augmentation (IA) deployment affects retention rates for Navy enlisted personnel and junior officers. The analysis compared retention rates between ... -
Multiple regime shifts in a subtropical peatland: community-specific thresholds to eutrophication
(Ecological Society of America, 2008-11)Ecosystems have a natural resilience to perturbations, where resilience is the magnitude of a disturbance that an ecosystem can resist before changes in structure, function, and services result in a regime shift. The ...
