Association of influenza epidemics with global climate variability
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 2004-11)
The reasons for the seasonality and annual changes in the impact of influenza epidemics remain poorly understood. We investigated the covariations between a major component of climate, namely the El Niño Southern Oscillation ...
Comments on rarity and chaos, Thomas D. Rogers, math. biosci. 72:13-18 (1984)
(Elsevier, 1985-03)
Data subset selection by Boolean calculation
(Elsevier, 1984-11)
In this journal in 1969 the authors described an unconventional method, based on concepts from systematic biology, for storing and retrieving data, whose salient features are: (1) data are stored in such a manner that the ...
An idealized concept of the true cladistic character
(Elsevier, 1975-04)
Estimating evolutionary relationships is basic to the objectives of systematics. Comparative data, structured as taxonomic characters, are usually the essential considerations on which such estimates are founded. Some ...
A mathematical foundation for the analysis of cladistic character compatibility
(Elsevier, 1976)
Using formal algebraic definitions of "cladistic character" and "character compatibility", the concept of "binary factors of a cladistic character" is formalized and used to describe and justify an algorithm for checking ...
