Shifting baselines increase the risk of misinterpreting biodiversity trends

Ecography, EarlyView.
Ecological studies quantifying the impact of land‐use change on biodiversity may be sensitive to the choice of reference points – or baselines – particularly when sampling across human land‐use gradients and other space‐for‐time comparisons. Much depends on whether the chosen baseline has already undergone shifts in species composition because of ...

Long‐lasting remodeling of astrocytes in an Scna1+/− mouse model of Dravet syndrome

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Dravet syndrome (DS) is a prototypical developmental and epileptic encephalopathy caused by mutations in the SCN1A gene, leading to loss of function of the voltage‐gated sodium channel Naᵥ1.1. The latter causes early onset drug‐resistant seizures and enduring cognitive and behavioral deficits.

Planar Convex Hulls

, 2005
An attempt is made to understand some of the planar convex hull algorithms leading up to and including Chan's 1995 planar convex hull algorithm. The algorithms include: i) Graham's 1972 algorithm, ii) Jarvis' 1973 algorithm, and iii) Chan's 1995 algorithm.

Multifactorial Screening for Fine‐Scale Selection of CCS Industrial Clusters and Hubs in Brazil

Greenhouse Gases: Science and Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As Brazil moves toward implementing its decarbonization commitments, carbon capture and storage (CCS) hubs are emerging as a key pathway for large‐scale CO2 abatement in hard‐to‐abate sectors. This paper presents a multifactorial, data‐driven framework to screen and prioritize potential CCS industrial clusters and hubs across Brazilian regions,

How (not) to Cage an Electron: The Perfluoro Cage Effect as an Extrinsic Molecular Property

Helvetica Chimica Acta, EarlyView.
A rigorous definition within Kohn–Sham density functional theory is presented for the notion of an caged electron inside perfluorinated fullerenes as radical anions. ABSTRACT The notion of a (molecular) electron cage was coined for the unique hosting capacity of perfluorocubane, suggesting the “encapsulation of an electron” within the highly symmetric ...

The Black‐Box of ESG Scores From Rating Agencies: Do They Genuinely Reflect Sustainability Practices, or Are They Disproportionately Shaped by Financial Performance?

International Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the environmental, social and governance (ESG) scoring methodologies used by Bloomberg and S&P Global through the lens of Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). It addresses a notable gap in the literature by identifying the underlying factors that shape ESG scores and providing practical insights for companies seeking to ...

Data‐Based Detection of Antagonistic Agents in a Robot Swarm Solving a Dynamic Coverage Task

International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Robot swarms can be deployed as moving surveillance systems, for instance, as mobile anti‐poaching systems for monitoring wildlife and detecting poaching activities. Since poachers have an interest in evading detection, robots are at risk of being hijacked and manipulated to behave antagonistically, for example, to prevent the correct ...

Solving for Blameless and Optimal Control Under Prioritized Safety Constraints

Optimal Control Applications and Methods, EarlyView.
Summary of the proposed method for solving for blameless and optimal control sequences. ABSTRACT In many safety‐critical optimal control problems, users may request multiple safety constraints that are jointly infeasible due to external factors such as subsystem failures, unexpected disturbances, or fuel limitations.

ROLLING BEARING FAULT DIAGNOSIS BASED ON ADAPTIVE FEATURE SELECTION k-SUB CONVEX HULL

Jixie qiangdu
Feature selection and classifier design are often studied separately in rolling bearing fault diagnosis, so it is difficult to obtain satisfactory classification accuracy.

The relative roles of in situ diversification and lineage dispersal underlying diversity patterns at the assemblage level

Oikos, EarlyView.
Speciation, extinction, and dispersal are the historical processes influencing the spatial distribution of lineages and strongly influence diversity patterns. Here, we apply a recently developed methodological approach to quantify the relative legacies in situ diversification history (i.e.
