Global distribution and bioclimatic characterization of alpine biomes
Ecography, 2020 Although there is a general consensus on the distribution and ecological features of terrestrial biomes, the allocation of alpine ecosystems in the global biogeographic system is still unclear.

Journal of Threatened Taxa, 2017 The Himalayan Marmot Marmota himalayana is one of the largest rodents of cold desert habitats, found mainly between 3,500–5,200 m above the timberline. It is regarded as an ecosystem engineer and constitutes part of the diet of some globally endangered ...

Analysis of the SORAS domain decomposition preconditioner for non-self-adjoint or indefinite problems [PDF]
Journal of Scientific Computing, 89, 19, 2021, 2020 We analyze the convergence of the one-level overlapping domain decomposition preconditioner SORAS (Symmetrized Optimized Restricted Additive Schwarz) applied to a generic linear system whose matrix is not necessarily symmetric/self-adjoint nor positive definite. By generalizing the theory for the Helmholtz equation developed in [I.G.

Ecological Stoichiometry of the Mountain Cryosphere
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2019 Roughly 10% of the Earth's surface is permanently covered by glaciers and ice sheets and in mountain ecosystems, this proportion of ice cover is often even higher.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 Ongoing climate change involves increasing snow scarcity, which results in more frequent freeze-thaw cycles (FTCs) in polar and alpine soils. Although repeated FTCs have been shown to alter the structure and functions of soil microbial communities, a ...

Biology, 2022 Climate change alters organismal performance via shifts in temperature. However, we know little about the relative fitness impacts of climate variability and how cold-adapted ectotherms mediate these effects.

Tibial Plateau Fractures among Alpine Skiers: A Retrospective Case Series
Osteology, 2023 The purpose of this retrospective case series was to review the demographics of alpine skiers who sustain tibial plateau fractures, evaluate the inter-observer reliability of the Schatzker classification for fractures sustained while alpine skiing, and ...

A Directional Equispaced interpolation-based Fast Multipole Method for oscillatory kernels [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Fast Multipole Methods (FMMs) based on the oscillatory Helmholtz kernel can reduce the cost of solving N-body problems arising from Boundary Integral Equations (BIEs) in acoustic or electromagnetics. However, their cost strongly increases in the high-frequency regime.

A new look at the infrared properties of z $\sim$ 5 galaxies [PDF]
, 2022 Recent ALMA large surveys unveiled the presence of significant dust continuum emission in star-forming galaxies at $z>4$. Unfortunately, such large programs -- i.e. ALPINE ($z\sim 5$) and REBELS ($z \sim 7$) -- only provide us with a single Far-Infrared (FIR) continuum data point for their individual targets.
