Modeling longitudinal change in biomarkers using data from a complex survey sampling design: An application to the Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2023 at "Statistics in Medicine"
DOI: 10.1002/sim.9635
Abstract: In observational cohort studies, there is frequently interest in modeling longitudinal change in a biomarker (ie, physiological measure indicative of metabolic dysregulation or disease; eg, blood pressure) in the absence of treatment (ie, medication), and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/sim.9743
Abstract: Cluster randomized designs (CRD) provide a rigorous development for randomization principles for studies where treatments are allocated to cluster units rather than the individual subjects within clusters. It is known that CRDs are less efficient… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/vzj2.20060
Abstract: The “4 per 1,000” initiative calls for land management practices that increase soil organic C (SOC). Despite an imperative for accurate SOC measurement, several methodological issues may complicate the verification of C sequestration. The aim… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s13131-020-1607-z
Abstract: In the survey of fishery resources, the sampling design will directly impact the accuracy of the estimation of the abundance. Therefore, it is necessary to optimize the sampling design to increase the quality of fishery… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/s1002-0160(19)60801-5
Abstract: Abstract Sampling plays an important role in acquiring precise soil information required in modern agricultural production worldwide, which determines both the cost and quality of final soil mapping products. For sampling design, it has been… read more here.

DOI: 10.1088/1361-6501/adde7a
Abstract: Colouration maps offer a look-up table solution to inverse reconstruction problems in optical imaging. The initial generation of these maps is, however, expensive due to combinatorial explosion or exposed to large errors if the number… read more here.

Assessment of fish communities using environmental DNA: Effect of spatial sampling design in lentic systems of different sizes
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Molecular Ecology Resources"
DOI: 10.1111/1755-0998.13105
Abstract: Freshwater fish biodiversity is quickly decreasing and requires effective monitoring and conservation. Environmental DNA (eDNA)‐based methods have been shown to be highly sensitive and cost‐efficient for aquatic biodiversity surveys, but few studies have systematically investigated… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/ecog.04568
Abstract: We investigated 1) the role of area per se in explaining anuran species richness on reservoir forest islands, after controlling for several confounding factors. We also assessed 2) how sampling design affects the inferential power… read more here.
