The evolution of doctrinal religions: Using semantic network analysis and computational models to examine the evolutionary dynamics of large religions by Lane, J

“…The divergent modes of religiosity (DMR) theory suggests that imagistic religions rely on rare and emotionally intense rituals to foster fusion by means of reflection (e.g. tribal initiations in small tribal religions), while doctrinal religions achieve cohesion, in the form of social identification, through the performance of frequent low arousal rituals (e.g. daily or weekly rituals in Judeo-Christian religions). …”

Two years of satellite-based carbon dioxide emission quantification at the world's largest coal-fired power plants by D. H. Cusworth, D. H. Cusworth, A. K. Thorpe, C. E. Miller, A. K. Ayasse, R. Jiorle, R. M. Duren, R. M. Duren, R. M. Duren, R. Nassar, J.-P. Mastrogiacomo, R. R. Nelson

“…CO<span class="inline-formula">₂</span> plumes were detected in 50 % of the acquired PRISMA scenes, which is consistent with the combined influence of viewing parameters on detection (solar illumination and surface reflectance) and unknown factors (e.g., daily operational status). We compare satellite-derived emission rates to in situ stack emission observations and find average agreement to within 27 % for PRISMA and 30 % for OCO-3, although more observations are needed to robustly characterize the error. …”

Quantifying uncertainty in coastal salinity regime for biological application using quantile regression by Simeon Yurek, Micheal Allen, Mitchell J. Eaton, David Chagaris, Nathan Reaver, Julien Martin, Peter Frederick, Mark Dehaven

“…Characterizing coastal salinity regime for ecological studies therefore requires representing extremes of salinity ranges at time scales relevant to ecology (e.g., daily, monthly, and seasonally). Here, we propose a framework for modeling coastal salinity with these overall goals: (1) quantify uncertainty in salinity associated with important terrestrial and oceanographic drivers, (2) examine time scales of salinity response to river streamflow events, and (3) predict salinity continuously over space at key time scales. …”

A Random Forest Approach to Estimate Daily Particulate Matter, Nitrogen Dioxide, and Ozone at Fine Spatial Resolution in Sweden by Massimo Stafoggia, Christer Johansson, Paul Glantz, Matteo Renzi, Alexandra Shtein, Kees de Hoogh, Itai Kloog, Marina Davoli, Paola Michelozzi, Tom Bellander

“…An accurate assessment of its spatial and temporal distribution is mandatory to conduct epidemiological studies able to estimate long-term (e.g., annual) and short-term (e.g., daily) health effects. While spatiotemporal models for particulate matter (PM) have been developed in several countries, estimates of daily nitrogen dioxide (NO₂) and ozone (O₃) concentrations at high spatial resolution are lacking, and no such models have been developed in Sweden. …”
