      Nagaraja, CH (Taylor and Francis, 2024)
      Last year, the scientific world lost one of its preeminent statisticians, Calyampudi Radhakrishna Rao. Much has already been written about his more famous results, the Cramér-Rao lower bound, the Rao-Blackwell Theorem, ...
    • Emulating complex dynamical simulators with random Fourier features 

      Mohammadi, H; Challenor, P; Goodfellow, M (Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics, 2024)
      A Gaussian process (GP)-based methodology is proposed to emulate complex dynamical computer models (or simulators). The method relies on emulating the numerical flow map of the system over an initial (short) time step, ...
    • Quantifying causal teleconnections to drought and fire risks in Indonesian Borneo 

      Lam, T; Catto, JL; Barciela, R; et al. (Wiley / Royal Meteorological Society, 28 March 2024)
      Fires occurring over the peatlands in Indonesian Borneo accompanied by droughts have posed devastating impacts on human health, livelihoods, economy and the natural environment, and their prevention requires comprehensive ...
    • Process-based classification of Mediterranean cyclones using potential vorticity 

      Givon, Y; Hess, O; Flaounas, E; et al. (Copernicus Publications, 2 February 2024)
      Mediterranean cyclones (MCs) govern extreme weather events across the Euro-African Basin, affecting the lives of hundreds of millions. Despite many studies addressing MCs in the last few decades, their correct simulation ...
    • The 2021 western North America heat wave among the most extreme events ever recorded globally 

      Thompson, V; Kennedy-Asser, AT; Vosper, E; et al. (American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), 4 May 2022)
      In June 2021, western North America experienced a record-breaking heat wave outside the distribution of previously observed temperatures. While it is clear that the event was extreme, it is not obvious whether other areas ...
