Large ecosystems in transition: bifurcations and mass extinction [PDF]
Ecological Complexity, 2017, 2014 We propose a model of multispecies populations surviving on distributed resources. System dynamics are investigated under changes in abiotic factors such as the climate, as parameterized through environmental temperature. In particular, we introduce a feedback between species abundances and resources via abiotic factors.

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Nature‐inspired, photolithography‐free, flexible, pixelated perovskite photosensitive films serve not only as a high‐resolution pixelation platform but also as a stress‐relief mechanism for otherwise brittle perovskite films, enabling enhanced mechanical flexibility. This synergetic approach yields pixelated perovskite layers with ≈1.5 µm pixel sizes, ≈

A model-based approach to assist variety evaluation in sunflower crop [PDF]
Casadebaig, P.; Mestries, E. & Debaeke, P. (2016), 'A model-based
approach to assist variety assessment in sunflower crop', European Journal of
Agronomy 81, 92--105, 2017 Assessing the performance and the characteristics (e.g. yield, quality, disease resistance, abiotic stress tolerance) of new varieties is a key component of crop performance improvement. However, the variety testing process is presently exclusively based on experimental field approaches which inherently reduces the number and the diversity of ...

P3HT‐Based Electroactive Films for In Vitro Neuronal Cell Interfacing
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Reducing the mechanical mismatch between bioelectronic devices and tissue is crucial for enhancing the characteristics of biointerfaces that better mimic the biological tissues. This work investigates the physico‐chemical properties of tunable nanostructured surfaces obtained from a blend of P3HT and MWCNT electroactive polymer.

Usefulness of interpretability methods to explain deep learning based plant stress phenotyping [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Deep learning techniques have been successfully deployed for automating plant stress identification and quantification. In recent years, there is a growing push towards training models that are interpretable -i.e. that justify their classification decisions by visually highlighting image features that were crucial for classification decisions.

A Complex Systems Approach to Exoplanet Atmospheric Chemistry: New Prospects for Ruling Out the Possibility of Alien Life-As-We-Know-It [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 The near-term capability to characterize terrestrial exoplanet atmospheres may bring us closer to discovering alien life through atmospheric data. However, remotely detectable candidate biosignature gases are subject to false positive signals because they can also be produced abiotically, raising a critical need to develop methods to determine whether ...
