, synchronization and seasonality in the theoretical models. In this work, spatial heterogeneity is introduced via coupled map lattices … (CML) and partial differential equations. Stability and persistence of some realistic CML are discussed. Chaos control …, synchronization and persistence are studied for some CML. Some applications in population biology and ecology are given. A simple …

Applying research on vulnerability to seasonal data, we assess seasonal vulnerability to poverty using panel data from the Hadejia-Nguru Wetlands in Nigeria involving 260. We find that both observed poverty and vulnerability to poverty vary seasonally and that these variations are related to...

We explore a periodic analysis in the context of unobserved components time series models that decompose time series into components of interest such as trend and seasonal. Periodic time series models allow dynamic characteristics to depend on the period of the year, month, week or day. In the...

Nonparametric unit-root tests are a useful addendum to the tool-box of time-series analysis. They tend to trade off power for enhanced robustness features. We consider combinations of the RURS (seasonal range unit roots) test statistic and a variant of the level-crossings count. This combination...
