Ecotype differentiation in the face of gene flow within the diving beetle Agabus bipustulatus (Linnaeus, 1767) in northern Scandinavia.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
The repeated occurrence of habitat-specific polyphyletic evolved ecotypes throughout the ranges of widely distributed species implies that multiple, independent and parallel selection events have taken place.

Asian dust storm events of spring 2001 and associated pollutants observed in New England by the Atmospheric Investigation, Regional Modeling, Analysis and Prediction (AIRMAP) monitoring network [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Between 18 April and 13 May 2001, three statistically extreme dust aerosol events were observed across the entire northeastern United States. High levels of bulk aerosol water-soluble Ca2+ (range = 42–482 pptv) and PM2.5 elemental Ca (range = 19–156 pptv)

Real‐Time and Rapid Dynamic Missile Identification Utilizing a TiOx Memristor Array

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Real‐time missile target identification is demonstrated using an artificial intelligence model based on step‐weighted long–short‐term memory networks and a TiOx memristor array. The approach classifies five projectile types with enhanced early‐stage prediction through data augmentation and custom training strategies. Achieving 94.4% accuracy, the model

Degeneracy Sensing Light Detection and Ranging‐Inertial Simultaneous Localization and Mapping with Dual‐Layer Resistant Odometry and Scan‐Context Loop‐Closure Detection Backend in Diverse Environments

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This paper presents a degeneracy‐aware light detection and ranging (LiDAR)‐inertial framework that enhances LiDAR simultaneous localization and mapping performance in challenging environments. The proposed system integrates a dual‐layer robust odometry frontend with a Scan‐Context‐based loop‐closure detection backend.

The Relative Influences of Climate and Competition on Tree Growth along Montane Ecotones in the Rocky Mountains

open access: yes, 2016
Distribution shifts of tree species are likely to be highly dependent upon population performance at distribution edges. Understanding the drivers of aspects of performance, such as growth, at distribution edges is thus crucial to accurately predicting ...

Selection by Pollinators on Floral Traits in Generalized Trollius ranunculoides (Ranunculaceae) along Altitudinal Gradients

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Abundance and visitation of pollinator assemblages tend to decrease with altitude, leading to an increase in pollen limitation. Thus increased competition for pollinators may generate stronger selection on attractive traits of flowers at high elevations ...

Multimodal Locomotion of Soft Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This review comprehensively surveys recent advances in multimodal locomotion within soft robotics. Typical locomotion modes are summarized and categorized. Furthermore, the underlying mechanisms enabling multimodal locomotion are discussed and classified into three primary categories: active control‐based, reconfiguration‐based, and environment ...

Manual of tropical bryology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Bryophytes belong to the oldest land plants. They existed already in the Palaeozoic 300 mio years ago in forms which were hardly different from the extant species. They remained relatively unchanged with relatively low evolution rates (and are thus often
