Hypergeometric functions, continued fractions for products of gamma functions, and q-analogues
… identities are those involving ratios of Gamma functions in Chapter 12 of his second notebook. This thesis develops a method for deriving such identities, using hypergeometric functions as the main tool. We begin by deriving a continued fraction identity, use it to prove Ramanujan's Entry …

Analysis Of A Parallel Stratiform Mesoscale Convective System During The Midlatitude Continental Convective Clouds Experiment
… created the parallel stratiform characteristics. Gamma functions were fit to ten-second averaged two-dimensional cloud probe spectra. Comparisons of N0, μ, and λ with values from McFarquhar et al. (2007) show the microphysical processes in the parallel stratiform region are similar to those in …

Modeling the impact of gypsy moth defoliation in individual tree mortality and basal area growth of northern hardwoods of central Pennsylvania
… years of defoliation measures. A beta and gamma function were used to model individual· tree basal area growth for the same 15 species. The models were fit using nonlinear least squares. Variables used include the relative basal area index, stand basal area, site index and a defoliation …

Regulation of oligodendrocyte lineage cell function by the RXR$\gamma$ nuclear receptor
… is compromised. The nuclear receptor RXR$\gamma$ is an important positive regulator of OPC differentiation and an accelerator of endogenous remyelination in aged rats. RXR$\gamma$ functions as a ligand-induced transcription factor and is able to regulate gene transcription. It does so by …

The use of gamma distributions to quantify the dependence of cloud particle size distributions in hurricanes on cloud and environmental conditions
… hydrometeors combined. These SDs are then fit to gamma functions to determine how the intercept (No), shape (μ), and slope (λ) parameters vary with cloud and environmental conditions such as the ice water content (IWC), vertical velocity (w), temperature (T), and TC stage of development. The No, …
