Future increases in Arctic lightning and fire risk for permafrost carbon
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2021-04-05)Lightning is an indicator and a driver of climate change. Here using satellite observations of lightning flash rate and ERA5 reanalysis, we find that the spatial pattern of summer lightning over northern circumpolar regions ... -
A Future of Abundant Sparsity: Novel Use and Analysis of Sparse Coding in Machine Learning Applications
(2015-06-26)We present novel applications and analysis of the use of sparse coding within the con- text of machine learning. We first present Sparse Coding Trees (SC-trees), a sparse coding-based framework for resolving classification ... -
Future of Avian Genetic Resources Collections: Archives of Evolutionary and Environmental History
(American Ornithologists' Union, 2005) -
The future of central bank cooperation
(Bank for International Settlements, 2006)Central bank cooperation depends on a few crucial parameters: the extent to which central bankers agree on theory (end means relationships); the extent to which they can agree on goals (social purpose); the capacity ... -

The Future of Memory: Remembering, Imagining, and the Brain
(Elsevier, 2012)During the past few years, there has been a dramatic increase in research examining the role of memory in imagination and future thinking. This work has revealed striking similarities between remembering the past and ... -
The Future of Partisan Symmetry as a Judicial Test for Partisan Gerrymandering after LULAC v. Perry
(Mary Ann Liebert, 2007)While the Supreme Court in Bandemer v. Davis found partisan gerrymandering to be justiciable, no challenged redistricting plan in the subsequent 20 years has been held unconstitutional on partisan grounds. Then, in Vieth ... -
The future of primordial features with large-scale structure surveys
(IOP Publishing, 2016)Primordial features are one of the most important extensions of the Standard Model of cosmology, providing a wealth of information on the primordial Universe, ranging from discrimination between inflation and alternative ... -
The Future of Replication

The Future of Rwanda’s Past: Transitional Justice, Archival Practice, and the Remaking of History After Genocide
(2016-09-14)“The Future of Rwanda’s Past” examines the politics of historical revisionism in contemporary Rwanda, arguing that the global fight against genocide has had a profound impact on historical research and production, and on ... -
Future planning: default network activity couples with frontoparietal control network and reward-processing regions during process and outcome simulations
(Oxford University Press, 2014)We spend much of our daily lives imagining how we can reach future goals and what will happen when we attain them. Despite the prevalence of such goal-directed simulations, neuroimaging studies on planning have mainly ... -
Future Probes of Cosmology and the High-Redshift Universe
(2013-10-08)This thesis is a study in theoretical cosmology with an emphasis on the high-redshift universe and promising directions for future observations. In Chapters 2 and 3, we propose intensity mapping of spectral line emission ... -
Futures Markets and the Fluctuations in Inflation, Monetary Growth, and Asset Returns
(University of Chicago Press, 1986)Inflation and nominal interest rates have been volatile in recent years. Futures contracts in price indices would help in this environment by enhancing information about prices and by providing a convenient means for ... -
The G-protein–gated K+ channel, IKACh, is required for regulation of pacemaker activity and recovery of resting heart rate after sympathetic stimulation
(The Rockefeller University Press, 2013)Parasympathetic regulation of sinoatrial node (SAN) pacemaker activity modulates multiple ion channels to temper heart rate. The functional role of the G-protein–activated K+ current (IKACh) in the control of SAN pacemaking ... -
G-Squared Statistic for Detecting Dependence, Additive Modeling, and Calibration Concordance for Astrophysical Data
(2017-08-31)We present three topics in this thesis, G-squared statistic for independence testing as well as additive modeling, and calibration concordance by multiplicative shrinkage. Detecting dependence is a fundamental problem. ... -
G11.92-061-MM2: A bonafide massive prestellar core?
(IOP Publishing, 2014)Core accretion models of massive star formation require the existence of stable massive starless cores, but robust observational examples of such objects have proven elusive. We report subarcsecond-resolution Submillimeter ... -
