To do so, it is critically important to understand the spatiotemporal dynamics of their prey. Here, the prey we study are zooplankton and we build a novel space-time hierarchical fusion model to describe the distribution and abundance of zooplankton species in Cape Cod Bay (CCB), MA, USA. The data were collected irregularly in space and time at sites within the first half of the year over a 17 year period, using two different sampling methods. We focus on <i>sea surface</i> zooplankton abundance and incorporate sea surface temperature as a primary driver, also collected with two different sampling methods. So, with two sources for each, we observe true abundance or true sea surface temperature with measurement error. To account for such error, we apply calibrations to align the data sources and use the fusion model to develop a prediction of daily spatial zooplankton abundance surfaces throughout CCB. To infer average abundance on a given day within a given year in CCB, we present a marginalization of the zooplankton abundance surface. We extend the inference to consider abundance averaged to a bi-weekly or annual scale as well as to make an annual comparison of abundance.</p>","PeriodicalId":50519,"journal":{"name":"Environmental and Ecological Statistics","volume":"27 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2023-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138542023","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, we introduce the wrapped XLindley distribution, a novel circular distribution with a single parameter. We derive expressions for the distribution’s characteristic function, trigonometric moments, and other associated descriptive measures. The unknown distributional parameter is estimated using the maximum likelihood, least squares, and weighted least squares approach, and the accuracy of these estimates is tested using a simulation study. Finally, to clarify the suggested distribution’s modeling potential, we fit the proposed model to two circular real-world data sets and evaluate the goodness of fit of this distribution in comparison to the wrapped Lindley, wrapped modified Lindley, Von Mises, Jones–Pewsey, and Kato–Jones distributions.","PeriodicalId":50519,"journal":{"name":"Environmental and Ecological Statistics","volume":"3 3","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135872624","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) distribution is assumed to model annual maxima values of river discharge registered at multiple gauging stations belonging to the same river basin. The specific features of the data from the Upper Danube basin drive the definition of the proposed statistical model. Firstly, Bayesian P-splines are considered to account for the non-linear effects of station-specific covariates on the GEV parameters. Secondly, the problem of functional and variable selection is addressed by imposing a grouped horseshoe prior to the coefficients to encourage the shrinkage of non-relevant components to zero. A cross-validation study is organized to compare the proposed modeling solution to other models, showing its potential to reduce the uncertainty of the ungauged predictions without affecting their calibration.","PeriodicalId":50519,"journal":{"name":"Environmental and Ecological Statistics","volume":"18 12","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136234435","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
