… It is clear from the results of Mu and Wang (2001) that for predictability study, we should
first find out all local fastest growing perturbations, then investigate their effects on the …

ENSO is the strongest interannual signal in the global climate system with worldwide
climatic, ecological and societal impacts. Over the past decades, the research about ENSO …

… motion, MU[3] proposed the concept of nonlinear singular vector (NSV) and nonlinear
singular value (NSVA). The two-dimensional quasi-geostrophic model has been used by Mu and …

The approach of conditional nonlinear optimal perturbation (CNOP) was previously proposed
to find the optimal initial perturbation (CNOP-I) in a given constraint. In this paper, we …

Most state‐of‐the‐art climate models have difficulty in the prediction of El Niño‐Southern
Oscillation (ENSO) starting from preboreal spring seasons. The causes of this spring …

Seasonal dependence of initial error growth for El Niño‐Southern Oscillation (ENSO) in
Zebiak‐Cane model is investigated by using a new approach, ie conditional nonlinear optimal …

Video streaming is an increasingly popular way to consume media content. Adaptive video
streaming is an emerging delivery technology which aims to increase user QoE and …

Targeted observation is an observation strategy by which the concerned phenomenon is
observed. In geoscience, targeted observation is mainly related to the forecasts of weather …

A novel concept of nonlinear singular vector and nonlinear singular value is introduced, which
is a natural generalization of the classical linear singular vector and linear singular value …

Technetium-99m is the most commonly used radionuclide in routine nuclear medicine
imaging procedures. Development of 99m Tc-labeled receptor-specific imaging agents for …
