Accelerating Effect of Vegetation on the Instability of Rainfall-Induced Shallow Landslides

Remote Sensing, 2022
Rainfall-induced shallow landslides are widespread throughout the world, and vegetation is frequently utilized to control them. However, in recent years, shallow landslides have continued to frequently occur during the rainy season on the vegetated ...

Carrying Capacity for Pinctada maxima (Jameson 1901) Farming in Sathean Bay, Southeast Maluku Based on Nitrogen and Phosphate Balance [PDF]

, 2017
Sathean Bay is a small, semi-enclosed waters which have been utilized as an area for pearl oyster farming using floating long line method. The growth of pearl oysters are affected by the availability of food (phytoplankton) in the waters.

Carrying capacity models should not use fixed prey density thresholds: a plea for using more tools of behavioural ecology [PDF]

, 2004
Earlier studies have developed models of carrying capacity to predict the number of animals a certain area can support. These models assume that resources are not renewed after consumption (‘standing stock’ models), and that the initial number of prey ...

On the emergence of random initial conditions in fluid limits [PDF]

, 2016
The paper presents a phenomenon occurring in population processes that start near zero and have large carrying capacity. By the classical result of Kurtz~(1970), such processes, normalized by the carrying capacity, converge on finite intervals to the ...

Geochemistry of a paleo-oxbow lake sediments and its implications for the late Holocene extreme overbank flooding history of the Yellow River within the Zoige Basin, NE Tibetan Plateau

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023
Paleo-oxbow lake sediments can provide archives to reconstruct paleo-channel evolution and flooding history of the river. Multi-proxy approaches including detailed sediment stratigraphy, sedimentology and geochemistry have been implemented in a high ...

Hierarchical population model with a carrying capacity distribution [PDF]

, 2002
A time- and space-discrete model for the growth of a rapidly saturating local biological population $N(x,t)$ is derived from a hierarchical random deposition process previously studied in statistical physics.
