On the diversity of asynchronous communication [PDF]

open access: yesFormal Aspects of Computing, 2016
Abstract Asynchronous communication is often viewed as a single entity, the counterpart of synchronous communication. Although the basic concept of asynchronous communication is the decoupling of send and receive events, there is actually room for a variety of additional specification of the communication, for instance in terms ...

Community Resilience Through Diversity

open access: yesProceedings of the Association for Information Science and Technology, 2021
AbstractThe COVID‐19 pandemic has brought about a pivot in people's practice of their daily life and work, in particular a pivot towards virtual living and working. Sponsored by the ASIS&T European Chapter, this panel discusses the diverse ways in which this has affected different communities within Europe, bearing in mind the varying languages ...

Communicating with diversities

open access: yesCommunicare: Journal for Communication Studies in Africa, 2022
The South African government set mining companies the target to have women represent 10% oftheir workforce by 2009. Although the mining companies support the legislation, the target seemsalmost unreachable and the process riddled with obstacles. This article aims to investigate - withinthe context within which diversity relating to gender is managed ...

Diversity of online community activities [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the nineteenth ACM conference on Hypertext and hypermedia, 2008
Web sites where users create and rate content as well as form networks with other users display long-tailed distributions in many aspects of behavior. Using behavior on one such community site, Essembly, we propose and evaluate plausible mechanisms to explain these behaviors.

Phytoplankton Community Response to Environmental Factors along a Salinity Gradient in a Seagoing River, Tianjin, China

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2022
A river-estuary ecosystem usually features a distinct salinity gradient and a complex water environment, so it is enormously valuable to study the response mechanism of living organisms to multiple abiotic factors under salinity stress. Phytoplankton, as

Characteristic Changes of Bioaerosols in Beijing and Tsogt-Ovoo During Dust Events

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
Dust events moving at high altitudes by westerly wind can transport aerosols from Asian deserts to eastern Asia deposition areas such as China. Aerosols do not include only mineral particles but also microbial particles, which are called bioaerosols, and

Short-Term Vegetation Restoration Enhances the Complexity of Soil Fungal Network and Decreased the Complexity of Bacterial Network

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2022
Different vegetation restoration methods may affect the soil’s physicochemical properties and microbial communities. However, it is not known how the microbial network’s complexity of the bacterial and fungal communities respond to short-term vegetation ...

Aphids Influence Soil Fungal Communities in Conventional Agricultural Systems

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) form symbioses with the roots of most plant species, including cereals. AMF can increase the uptake of nutrients including nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P), and of silicon (Si) as well as increase host resistance to ...

Identification of Shared Spatial Dynamics in Temperature, Salinity, and Ichthyoplankton Community Diversity in the California Current System With Empirical Dynamic Modeling

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2020
Identifying spatially shared dynamics is a key component of community ecology studies as they provide evidence of common responses to environmental factors.
