The permutation entropy concept of Bandt and Pompe (2002 Phys. Rev. Lett. 88 174102) is
used to analyze the fluctuations in ion saturation current that spontaneously arise in a basic …

Geophysical data sets derived from satellite sensors, ground/airborne instrumentation, and
computational models are often compared against each other. A common example is the …

The presence of scaling statistical properties in temporal rainfall has been well established
in many empirical investigations during the latest decade. These properties have more and …

In the present work we introduce a stochastic cellular automata model in order to simulate
the dynamics of the stock market. A direct percolation method is used to create a hierarchy of …

A detailed knowledge of the spatial variability and temporal evolution of soil water content
(SWC) is a key element for maximizing the irrigation efficiency. This paper presents a novel …

The wavelet transform modulus maxima (WTMM) method is generalized to multifractal
image analysis, providing a statistical characterization of the fluctuating roughness of fractal …

Vegetation indices time series analysis is increasingly improved for characterizing
agricultural land processes. However, this is challenging because of the multeity of factors …

Abstract The Detrended Fluctuation Analysis statistical method is applied to microwave
radiometer and infrared thermometer radiance data in order to examine stratus cloud …

Plasma edge fluctuations show a degree of intermittency similar to fluid turbulence. Using
fluctuation measurements obtained with Langmuir probe data from two confinement devices …

Existing fractal studies dealing with subsurface heterogeneity treat the logarithm of the
permeability K as the variable of concern. We treat K as a multifractal and investigate its …
