MODELING HUDDLING PENGUINS.

Modeling huddling penguins.

We present a systematic and quantitative model of huddling penguins.In this mathematical model, each individual penguin in the huddle seeks only to reduce its own heat loss.Consequently, penguins on the boundary of the huddle that are most exposed to the wind move downwind to more sheltered locations along the TV Power Cord boundary.In contrast, pe

Stratification of populations with skewed distribution

The problem of efficient stratification in the case of skewed population is considered.Four stratification methods are examined.A new adjusted Rainbow Suncatcher geometric stratification method is introduced.This method is compared by simulation with the Dalenius-Hodges cumulative root frequency method, the geometric method proposed by Gunning and
