Seismic risk assessment for the residential buildings of the major three cities in Colombia: Bogotá, Medellín, and Cali
(EARTHQUAKE ENGINEERING RESEARCH INST, 2020-01-01)
This study presents a seismic risk assessment and a set of earthquake scenarios for the residential building stock of the three largest metropolitan centers of Colombia: Bogotá, Medellín and Cali (with 8.0, 2.5, and 2.4 ...
Engineering Design under Imprecise Probabilities: Computational Complexity
(Universidad de La Frontera. Departamento de Matemática y EstadísticaUniversidade Federal de Pernambuco. Departamento de Matemática, 2011)
Quantification of uncertainties associated with space-time estimates of short-term soil CO2 emissions in a sugar cane area
(2013-03-01)
The characterization of soil CO2 emissions (FCO2) is important for the study of the global carbon cycle. This phenomenon presents great variability in space and time, a characteristic that makes attempts at modeling and ...
Joint Probabilistic Analysis of Risk for Aquatic Species and Exceedence Frequency for the Agricultural Use of Chlorpyrifos in the Pampean Region, Argentina
(Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 2019-04-15)
The Pampa Húmeda region in Argentina is characterized by soybean, wheat, andmaize production, with intensive application of agrochemicals such as herbicides and insecticides. We used a joint probabilistic approach to analyze ...
Application of a non-homogeneous Markov chain with seasonal transition probabilities to ozone data
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2019-01-01)
In this work, we assume that the sequence recording whether or not an ozone exceedance of an environmental threshold has occurred in a given day is ruled by a non-homogeneous Markov chain of order one. In order to account ...
Temporal and Spatial Uncertainty of Erosion Soil Loss from an Argisol Under Sugarcane Management Scenarios
(Soc Brasileira De Ciencia Do Solo, 2018-01-01)
The identification of erosion-susceptible areas is fundamental for the adoption of soil conservation practices. Thus, the best way to estimate the spatial pattern of soil erosion must be identified, in which the process ...

The characterization of soil CO2 emissions (FCO2) is important for the study of the global carbon cycle. This phenomenon presents great variability in space and time, a characteristic that makes attempts at modeling and ...
Using non-homogeneous Poisson models with multiple change-points to estimate the number of ozone exceedances in Mexico City
(JOHN WILEY & SONS LTDLONDON, 2011)
In this paper, we consider some non-homogeneous Poisson models to estimate the probability that an air quality standard is exceeded a given number of times in a time interval of interest. We assume that the number of ...
Statistical Relationship between Atmospheric Circulation and Extreme Precipitation in La Plata Basin
(Wiley, 2013-07)
Empirical conditional probabilities of extreme monthly precipitation averaged over three regions of the southern part of the La Plata basin were calculated as a function of three atmospheric indices: two of them represent ...
Incorporating environmental heterogeneity and observation effort to predict host distribution and viral spillover from a bat reservoir
(Royal Society Publishing, 2023)
Predicting the spatial occurrence of wildlife is a major challenge for ecology and management. In Latin America, limited knowledge of the number and locations of vampire bat roosts precludes informed allocation of measures ...
