Projecting the future of extreme weather events and their impact on human life, the environment and vulnerable ecosystems locally and across the globe remains a complex task in climate research -- and one in which statisticians are increasingly playing key roles, particularly through the development of new models. The December issue of   CHANCE examines complexities of intense, massive data collection and statistical analysis techniques in climate research and features new proposed statistical methodology that could be a "game changer" in understanding our climate system and in the attribution of extreme climatic events. Changes in events related to atmospheric circulation, such as storms, cannot be characterized robustly due to their underlying chaotic nature. In contrast, changes in thermodynamic state variables, such as global temperature, can be relatively well characterized. "Rather than trying to assess the probability of an extreme event occurring, a group of ...

  Do you understand these important concepts? Nanoparticles  refer to particles having a particle size between 1 and 100 nm, also known as ultrafine particles. They are in an over-extension between macroscopic objects and between micro-systems and macro-systems. They are a group of a small number of atoms or molecules, so they are neither a typical microscopic system nor an atypical macroscopic system. The basic meaning of nanoscience and technology  is to manipulate and arrange atomic and molecular innovations directly or indirectly in the nanometer category for making new substances. Nanomedicine  is an emerging edge interdisciplinary subject based on nanoscience or medicine. Its basic meaning refers to the use of nanotechnology theories and methods to carry out a new discipline of medical research and clinical treatment, which is mainly related to medicine in two aspects. Combination: First, the detection technology of disease; second, the treatment te...

Abstract : The separation and purification of nucleic acids is a basic technology in biochemistry and molecular biology. As molecular biology techniques are widely used in biology, medicine, and related fields, nucleic acid separation and purification technologies have been further developed. The emergence of various new methods and improved traditional classical methods and commercial reagent methods has greatly promoted the development of molecular biology. Traditional nucleic acid separation requires ethanol precipitation, phenol/chloroform extraction, centrifugation, and column chromatography. The operation is cumbersome, time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it is difficult to achieve automatic separation and purification. Glass powder or glass beads have proven to be an effective nucleic acid adsorbent. In high salt solutions, nucleic acids can be adsorbed onto a glass substrate to facilitate separation of nucleic acids. In addition, surface functionalized polymeric magnetic ...
