Functional divergence drives the prevalence of low‐abundance species in bat assemblages

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Ecological communities are structured by a few common species, while most occur at low abundance. Understanding the drivers of this widespread pattern raises fundamental questions about community assembly rules and is important for applied ecology for identifying ...

The electromagnetic transient simulation acceleration algorithm based on delay mitigation of dynamic critical paths

Energy Informatics
The task scheduling problem based on directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) has been proven to be NP-complete in general cases or under certain restrictions.

Season and human footprint weaken the negative effect of temperature on the intraspecific metabolic scaling exponent of wild brown trout populations

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
We apply a new parameterized model through linking metabolic scaling and the maximum entropy theory of ecology to quantify the intraspecific metabolic scaling exponent of brown trout populations and assess the main drivers shaping the exponent. Abstract Metabolic scaling fundamentally sets the pace of life in almost all organisms.

Complete Graphical Characterization and Construction of Adjustment Sets in Markov Equivalence Classes of Ancestral Graphs

, 2018
We present a graphical criterion for covariate adjustment that is sound and complete for four different classes of causal graphical models: directed acyclic graphs (DAGs), maximum ancestral graphs (MAGs), completed partially directed acyclic graphs ...

Estimating Causal Effects With Observational Data: Guidelines for Agricultural and Applied Economists

Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Most research questions in agricultural and applied economics are causal in nature: they study how changes in one or more variables (such as policies, prices or weather) affect one or more other variables (e.g., income, crop yields or pollution).

Trait coevolution and causal inference using generalized dynamic phylogenetic models

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Phylogenetic comparative methods are widely used to study trait coevolution across biological and cultural domains. The most common methods are phylogenetic generalized linear (mixed) models, phylogenetic path analysis, Pagel's ‘discrete’ method and Ornstein–Uhlenbeck models. While some frameworks like generalized linear mixed models are quite

Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor Treatment in Adolescence and Subsequent Risk of Nonaffective Psychosis: A Quasi‐Experimental Study

Acta Psychiatrica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Psychotic disorders are frequently preceded by common mental disorders (CMDs), like depression and anxiety. It remains unclear whether treating CMDs in adolescence can reduce subsequent psychosis risk. We applied quasi‐experimental methods to national register data to assess whether a causal relationship exists between selective ...
