ESTUARINE HURRICANE WIND CAN INTENSIFY SURGE-DOMINATED EXTREME WATER LEVEL IN SHALLOW AND CONVERGING COASTAL SYSTEMS

Estuarine hurricane wind can intensify surge-dominated extreme water level in shallow and converging coastal systems

Based on the projected increase in hurricane landfall frequency on the middle to lower US east coast, we examined the crucial role of the estuarine wind field in exacerbating coastal flooding.A regionally refined atmospheric and two high-resolution hydrology viqua-f4 and ocean models are integrated to provide plausible and physically consistent ens

Quality and resource efficiency in hospital service provision: A geoadditive stochastic frontier analysis of stroke quality of care in Germany.

We specify a Bayesian, geoadditive Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA) model to assess 2000 corvette radiator hospital performance along the dimensions of resources and quality of stroke care in German hospitals.With 1,100 annual observations and data from 2006 to 2013 and risk-adjusted patient volume as output, we introduce a production function th
