Understanding and assessing uncertainty of observational climate datasets for model evaluation using ensembles
In climate science, observational gridded climate datasets that are based on in situ measurements serve as evidence for scientific claims and they are used to both calibrate and evaluate models. However, datasets only represent selected aspects of the real world, so when they are used for a specific purpose they can be a source of uncertainty. Here, we present a framework for understanding this uncertainty of observational datasets which distingu…
Alternative paths to long-term care
This paper examines certain quality of life outcomes, as well as comparative costs of care, for selected types of persons entering three very distinct types of alternative service programs that address the long-term care needs of vulnerable elderly persons: nursing homes (NH), geriatric day hospitals (GDH), and senior center (SC) programs. For selected outcomes, based on secondary analysis of the data gathered in another study, it was possible to…
The Pennsylvania domiciliary care experiment
This paper reports findings concerning the impact on quality of life of a case management focused program of small board and care facilities serving aging, mental health, and mental retardation adult target populations--the Pennsylvania Domiciliary Care Program. Program participants from the counties in which the Domiciliary Care Program was initiated were matched with persons residing in similar counties without the program who were comparable o…
