Observational analysis of the compositional variation in solar filaments
Solar filaments have long been associated with coronal mass ejections and Space Weather phenomena. Filaments are dynamcal, and changes in their overall mass or its distribution could trigger an eruption. However, a comprehensive study of the elemental composition, abundance, and dynamics in a …

Observational analysis of twentieth century summer climate over North America
How did the climate of the central United States change over the course of the twentieth century? In this study, multiple complementary statistical analyses were carried out on weather and agricultural production data in order to determine the spatiotemporal nature of changes. Variables considered …

Observational Analysis of Injury in Youth Ice Hockey: Putting Injury into Context
This study examines injury in competitive bodychecking and non-body checking youth ice hockey in male and female leagues in Ontario and Quebec. This study consisted of three parts: (1) quantifying the amount of injuries; (2) document situational factors in which hockey injuries occur; (3) observe …

Soil Moisture Dynamics and Thresholds for Surface Energy Balance Regime Transitions: An Observational Analysis at a U.S. Grassland Site
Understanding how soil moisture declines following rainfall—when the soil progressively dries due to evaporation and plant uptake—is critical for assessing plant water stress, surface energy partitioning, and land–atmosphere interactions. These periods of moisture loss, commonly referred to as soil …

Observational analysis study on the influence of the physical hospital environment on aggressive behaviour and the management thereof in an adult acute psychiatric admission unit
Aggression is a complex phenomenon that is influenced by a range of factors including individual patient factors, social-interactive factors and envirnmental factors. Many studies have tried and failed to demonstrate that changes such as physical environmental change, intensive case management, …

Effect of three coaching techniques on the shot put release point and distance of throw for male athletes with intellectual disabilities
… phases was used (Homer, et al., 2005). Observational analysis was used to report level, trend, and latency of change. A two-way (release point and distance thrown x baseline and maintenance) repeated measure ANOVA (p ≤ .05) addressed pre/post data. Following three sessions baseline …

Glacier-ocean interactions in shallow-silled fjords
… using a combination of numerical simulations and observational analysis. ☐ Idealized simulations, employing a coupled plume-ocean model, reveal distinct circulation regimes depending on the ratios of sill depth, fjord depth, and meltwater plume depth. The presence of a shallow sill reduces …

The Role of Preexisting Airmass Boundaries in the Maintenance and Rotation of Deep Convection in a High -Cape, Low -Shear Environment
… to examine the open issues that emerged from the observational analysis. Simulations were conducted using an idealized cloud model with a horizontally heterogeneous initialization that included the dominant preexisting airmass boundaries of the 27 May 1997 event. With a localized initialization …

Three Papers on Public Schools and Political Participation Among Americans of Color
… childhood experiences in schools. Using observational analysis of longitudinal datasets, I examine the relationship between public schools and political participation among students of color. My research highlights the important fact that public schools can influence both the resources …

Eustressed or Distressed? Combining Physiology with Observation in Stress Studies
… via the combination of a physiological and an observational information channel. The method enables the quantification of aroused emotional states and their disambiguation into positive or negative instances. The physiological channel targets sympathetic responses and is materialized as a …

Diagnostics of indoor environmental quality exposures and climate-infrastructure vulnerability in South African schools
… indoor environmental quality (IEQ) measurements. Observational analysis of this dataset quantifies the thermal and ventilation performance of each infrastructure type in relation to international standards. This provides the first quantitative evidence of worse thermal environments, characterised …

Understanding the adoption of additive manufacturing
… First I conducted semi-structured interviews and observational analysis; then, I analyzed technological developments, patent activity and firm entry. This study uncovers that 3d-printing something without observing technical requirements is quite easy. But 3d-printing a product that complies with …
