Solvable non-Markovian dynamic network [PDF]

, 2015
Non-Markovian processes are widespread in natural and human-made systems, yet explicit modeling and analysis of such systems is underdeveloped. We consider a non-Markovian dynamic network with random link activation and deletion (RLAD) and heavy-tailed ...

Boat to bowl: resilience through network rewiring of a community-supported fishery amid the COVID-19 pandemic

Environmental Research Letters, 2021
Fisheries are coupled human–natural systems locally, regionally, and globally. However, human–nature interactions within and between adjacent and distant systems (metacouplings) are rarely studied in fisheries despite their prevalence and policy ...

Addressing Complex Challenges in Coupled Natural and Human Systems Through Principled Pragmatism: A Case Study From Bangladesh

Frontiers in Water, 2021
Some of the most persistent challenges facing society and the environment arise from an intricate coupling of natural and human systems (CNHS). These challenges resist traditional expert-driven problem-solving approaches and require a careful synthesis ...

FABilT – finding answers in a billion triples [PDF]

, 2008
This submission presents the application of two coupled systems to the Billion Triples Challenge. The first system (Watson) provides the infrastructure which allows the second one (PowerAqua) to pose natural language queries to the billion triple ...

Who let the dog out? Dog owner attitudes and economics regulate the potential negative impact of domestic dogs on wildlife in a reserve network

Conservation Science and Practice
Many domestic animals have a profound impact on endangered species through complex interactions and spillover effects in and between coupled human and natural systems.

Practical Points for the Software Development of an Agent-Based Model of a Coupled Human-Natural System

IEEE Access, 2016
Modeling complex natural and human systems to support policy or management decision making is becoming increasingly common. The resulting models are often designed and implemented by researchers or domain experts with limited software engineering ...

Sustaining Economic Exploitation of Complex Ecosystems in Computational Models of Coupled Human-Natural Networks [PDF]

, 2012
Understanding ecological complexity has stymied scientists for decades. Recent elucidation of the famously coined "devious strategies for stability in enduring natural systems" has opened up a new field of computational analyses of complex ecological ...

Modelling and simulating change in reforesting mountain landscapes using a social-ecological framework [PDF]

, 2010
Natural reforestation of European mountain landscapes raises major environmental and societal issues. With local stakeholders in the Pyrenees National Park area (France), we studied agricultural landscape colonisation by ash (Fraxinus excelsior) to ...
