Pointwise Error Estimates for a Streamline Diffusion Finite Element Scheme.
Fitting exponentials to data by the least squares method is discussed. It is shown how the polynomials associated with this problem can be factored. The closure of the set of this type of functions defined on a finite domain is characterized and an existence theorem derived.
We propose a matrix population modelling approach in order to describe the dynamics of a grayling (Thymallus thymallus, L. 1758) population living in the Ain river (France). We built a Leslie like model, which integrates the climate changes in terms of temperature and discharge. First, we show how temperature and discharge can be related to life history traits like survival and reproduction. Second, we show how to use the population model to precisely examine the life cycle of grayling : estimated...
