Comparison between Air Temperature and Land Surface Temperature for the City of São Paulo, Brazil
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)This study aims to identify the relationship between changes in temperature regarding urbanization processes and seasonality in the city of São Paulo, located in the Tropic of Capricorn. The land surface temperature (LST) ... -
Comparison between instrumental variable and mediation-based methods for reconstructing causal gene networks in yeast
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Causal gene networks model the flow of information within a cell. Reconstructing causal networks from omics data is challenging because correlation does not imply causation. When genomics and transcriptomics data from a ... -
Comparison between precipitation estimates of ground-based weather radar composites and GPM’s DPR rainfall product over Germany
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)We compare more than three years (between 2014 and 2018) of precipitation estimates over Germany from the Dual-frequency Precipitation Radar (DPR) operating on the core satellite of the Global Precipitation Mission (GPM) ... -
A comparison of abundance, distribution and behavior of Northeast Atlantic mackerel (Scomber scombrus L.) during curved and straight forward trawling.
(Master thesis, 2016-06-01)Northeast Atlantic Mackerel (Scomber scombrus) is one of the largest and economically most valuable fish stocks in the world. However, due to a large area of distribution, low acoustic backscatter and highly dynamic and ... -
Comparison of anadromous and landlocked Atlantic salmon genomes reveals signatures of parallel and relaxed selection across the Northern Hemisphere
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Most Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) populations follow an anadromous life cycle, spending early life in freshwater, migrating to the sea for feeding, and returning to rivers to spawn. At the end of the last ice age ~10,000 ... -
A comparison of analytical approaches to investigate associations for accelerometry-derived physical activity spectra with health and developmental outcomes in children
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)The use of high-resolution physical activity intensity spectra obtained from accelerometry can improve knowledge of associations with health and development beyond the use of traditional summary measures of intensity. The ... -
A comparison of ancient deltaic shoreline progradation with modern deltaic progradation rates: Unravelling the temporal structure of the shallow-marine Blackhawk Formation, Upper Cretaceous Western Interior Seaway, USA
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Understanding how sedimentary rocks represent time is one of the significant challenges in sedimentology. Sedimentation rates retrieved from vertical sections are strongly timescale dependent, which means that we cannot ... -
A Comparison of Anthropometric Measures for Assessing the Association between Body Size and Risk of Chronic Low Back Pain: TheHUNT Study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-10-27)Background: Previous work indicates that overweight and obese individuals carry an increased risk of experiencing chronic low back pain (LBP). It is not known, however, how the association with body size depends on the ... -
Comparison of burning velocity differences in a numerical explosion simulator
(Master thesis, 2014-06-02)A verification study of the two flame models in the numerical explosion simulation tool FLACS has been conducted. The beta flame model, and the SIF flame model has been tested in a 1D-channel at different time step sizes. ... -
Comparison of calibration models for rapid prediction of lignin content in lignocellulosic biomass based on infrared and near-infrared spectroscopy
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Lignocellulosic biomass has great potential as a renewable energy source due to abundance both as vegetation and in residues from agriculture and forestry. It can be utilized for biofuels and for value-added chemicals and ... -
Comparison of diet composition, feeding, growth and health of lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus L.) fed either feed blocks or pelleted commercial feed
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Two duplicate groups of individually tagged lumpfish (mean initial weight: 21.5 ± 3.2 g) were fed either a commercially available lumpfish feed or feed blocks for a period of 123 days. The aim was to evaluate and compare ... -

Comparison of direct covariance flux measurements from an offshore tower and a buoy
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-05)Direct covariance flux (DCF) measurements taken from floating platforms are contaminated by wave-induced platform motions that need to be removed before computation of the turbulent fluxes. Several correction algorithms ... -
Comparison of Discrete and Continuous Models for the Pooling Problem
(Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2011)The pooling problem is an important global optimization problem which is encountered in many industrial settings. It is traditionally modeled as a bilinear, nonconvex optimization problem, and solved by branch-and-bound ... -
Comparison of distance measures in Multimodal registration of medical images
(Master thesis, 2011-06-14)In this thesis I have worked with medical image registration, in particular registration of multimodal images. I have tested the image registration software package FAIR developed by Jan Modersitzki, with particular focus ... -
Comparison of fragmentation functions for jets dominated by light quarks and gluons from pp and Pb+Pb collisions in ATLAS
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Charged-particle fragmentation functions for jets azimuthally balanced by a high-transverse-momentum, prompt, isolated photon are measured in 25 pb − 1 of p p and 0.49 nb − 1 of Pb + Pb collision data at 5.02 TeV per nucleon ... -
Comparison of Iterative Solvers for Non-Symmetric Linear Systems in Porous Media Problems
(Master thesis, 2014-09-02)We investigate the performance of the IDR(s)-algorithms when solving nonsymmetric systems in porous media problems. We derive a mathematical model for the flow in porous media, and discretized this with the method known ... -
