Numerical computations of facetted pattern formation in snow crystal growth [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Facetted growth of snow crystals leads to a rich diversity of forms, and exhibits a remarkable sixfold symmetry. Snow crystal structures result from diffusion limited crystal growth in the presence of anisotropic surface energy and anisotropic attachment

Green Is the New Gold: Redefining Opulent Lifestyle Through Organic Food Purchases

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Prior studies based on the Theory of Planned Behavior mostly examined the effects of health and environmental concerns on organic food consumption; however, few addressed the paradoxical relationships in the context of opulent or symbolic decorum.

Invasive Wild pigs as primary nest predators for Wild turkeys [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Depredation of wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) nests is a leading cause of reduced recruitment for the recovering and iconic game species. invasive wild pigs (Sus scrofa) are known to depredate nests, and have been expanding throughout the distributed ...

Application of the SP theory of intelligence to the understanding of natural vision and the development of computer vision [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The SP theory of intelligence aims to simplify and integrate concepts in computing and cognition, with information compression as a unifying theme. This article discusses how it may be applied to the understanding of natural vision and the development of

Warming summers limit reindeer grazing, weakening herbivory pressure in the mountain tundra

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Climate change is predicted to alter species interactions by exposing ecosystems to increasingly frequent and intense warm spells. In the mountain tundra, grazing by large herbivores, particularly reindeer, can limit shrub expansion and preserve Arctic plant diversity.

Self‐Supervised Coherence‐Based Denoising of Cryoseismological Distributed Acoustic Sensing Data

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation
A major challenge in cryoseismology is that signals of interest are often buried within the high noise level emitted by a variety of environmental processes. Particular Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) data often suffers from low signal‐to‐noise ratios
