Asynchrony in coral community structure contributes to reef-scale community stability
Many aspects of global ecosystem degradation are well known, but the ecological implications of variation in these effects over scales of kilometers and years have not been widely considered.

Scaling of load in communications networks [PDF]
We show that the load at each node in a preferential attachment network scales as a power of the degree of the node. For a network whose degree distribution is p(k) ~ k^(-gamma), we show that the load is l(k) ~ k^eta with eta = gamma - 1, implying that the probability distribution for the load is p(l) ~ 1/l^2 independent of gamma.

Self-similarity and scaling in forest communities [PDF]
Ecological communities exhibit pervasive patterns and interrelationships between size, abundance, and the availability of resources. We use scaling ideas to develop a unified, model-independent framework for understanding the distribution of tree sizes, their energy use, and spatial distribution in tropical forests.

Spatial Scaling in Model Plant Communities [PDF]
We present an analytically tractable variant of the voter model that provides a quantitatively accurate description of beta-diversity (two-point correlation function) in two tropical forests. The model exhibits novel scaling behavior that leads to links between ecological measures such as relative species abundance and the species area relationship.

Large Communities in a Scale-Free Network [PDF]
We prove the existence of a large complete subgraph w.h.p. in a preferential attachment random graph process with an edge-step. That is, we prove that the random graph $G_{t}$ produced by the so-called GLP model at time $t$ contains a complete subgraph of order $t^α$, where $α= (1-\varepsilon)\frac{1-p}{2-p}$, $\varepsilon$ is any number such that ...

Large-scale enterprises, social capital and the post-disaster development of community tourism: The case of Taoping, China [PDF]
This study explores how large-scale enterprises build and mobilise social capital with intra- and inter-community actors to stimulate the post-disaster development of community tourism.

Community detection in large scale congested urban road networks.
Traffic congestion in large urban networks may take different shapes and propagates non-uniformly variations from day to day. Given the fact that congestion on a road segment is spatially correlated to adjacent roads and propagates spatiotemporally with ...
