In electrical power systems with strong hydro generation, the use of adequate techniques to generate synthetic hydrological scenarios is extremely important for the evaluation of the ways the system behaves in order to meet the forecast energy demand. This paper proposes a new model to generate...

Based on simple time series plots and periodic sample autocorrelations, we document that monthly river flow data display long memory, in addition to pronounced seasonality. In fact, it appears that the long memory characteristics vary with the season. To describe these two properties jointly, we...

Non-autonomous single-species growth chemostat models with general response functions are considered. In the models, the dilution rate and removal rate are allowed to be different from each other. A series of new criteria on the boundedness, permanence, persistence, average persistence and...
