Community Structure and Crime: Testing Social-Disorganization Theory

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Sociology, 1989
Shaw and McKay's influential theory of community social disorganization has never been directly tested. To address this, a community-level theory that builds on Shaw and McKay's original model is formulated and tested.

Community Structure in Time-Dependent, Multiscale, and Multiplex Networks [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2009
Network Notation Networks are often characterized by clusters of constituents that interact more closely with each other and have more connections to one another than they do with the rest of the components of the network.

Structural Communication

open access: yes, 2002
The communication of structure in musical expression has been studied scientifically by analyzing variations in timing and dynamics in expert performances, and by analysis by synthesis. The underlying principles have been extracted, and models of the relationship between expression and musical structure formulated.

Food Waste Composting and Microbial Community Structure Profiling

open access: yes, 2020
Over the last decade, food waste has been one of the major issues globally as it brings a negative impact on the environment and health. Rotting discharges methane, causing greenhouse effect and adverse health effects due to pathogenic microorganisms or ...

Agricultural management and plant selection interactively affect rhizosphere microbial community structure and nitrogen cycling

open access: yesMicrobiome, 2019
Rhizosphere microbial communities are key regulators of plant performance, yet few studies have assessed the impact of different management approaches on the rhizosphere microbiomes of major crops.

The Community Structure of the Global Corporate Network [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We investigate the community structure of the global ownership network of transnational corporations. We find a pronounced organization in communities that cannot be explained by randomness.

Estimating carnivore community structures [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
AbstractObtaining reliable estimates of the structure of carnivore communities is of paramount importance because of their ecological roles, ecosystem services and impact on biodiversity conservation, but they are still scarce. This information is key for carnivore management: to build support for and acceptance of management decisions and policies it ...

Coral bacterial community structure responds to environmental change in a host-specific manner

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
The global decline of coral reefs heightens the need to understand how corals respond to changing environmental conditions. Corals are metaorganisms, so-called holobionts, and restructuring of the associated bacterial community has been suggested as a ...

Immunization of networks with non-overlapping community structure [PDF]

open access: yesSocial Network Analysis and Mining, 2018
Although community structure is ubiquitous in complex networks, few works exploit this topological property to control epidemics. In this work, devoted to networks with non-overlapping community structure (i.e., a node belongs to a single community), we ...

Ordered community structure in networks

open access: yes, 2012
Community structure in networks is often a consequence of homophily, or assortative mixing, based on some attribute of the vertices. For example, researchers may be grouped into communities corresponding to their research topic.
