Statistical estimation and nonlinear filtering in environmental pollution

open access: yesStatistical Inference for Stochastic Processes, 2023
This paper studies a nonlinear filtering problem over an infinite time interval. The signal to be estimated is driven by a stochastic partial differential equation involves unknown parameters. Based on discrete observation, strongly consistent estimators of the parameters are derived at first.

Does Environment Filtering or Seed Limitation Determine Post-fire Forest Recovery Patterns in Boreal Larch Forests?

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Wildfire is a primary natural disturbance in boreal forests, and post-fire vegetation recovery rate influences carbon, water, and energy exchange between the land and atmosphere in the region.

Trait‐based and multi‐scale approach provides insight on responses of freshwater mussels to environmental heterogeneity

open access: yesEcosphere, 2023
Our understanding of the factors driving the distribution of metacommunities at different scales can be obscured by high variation in species composition between sites and a lack of fine‐scale distribution data. Trait‐based approaches have long been used

A Comparison of LiDAR Filtering Algorithms in Vegetated Mountain Areas

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Remote Sensing, 2018
Filtering of airborne light detection and ranging (LiDAR) data is a challenging task in vegetated mountain areas. Environmental features and LiDAR data characteristics have significant impacts on the performance of filtering algorithms.

Gut Microbiota in Tibetan Herdsmen Reflects the Degree of Urbanization

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Urbanization is associated with shifts in human lifestyles, thus possibly influencing the diversity, interaction and assembly of gut microbiota. However, the question regarding how human gut microbiota adapts to varying lifestyles remains elusive.

Restoring the fire–grazing interaction promotes tree–grass coexistence by controlling woody encroachment

open access: yesEcosphere, 2020
Woody encroachment can convert grasslands and savannas to shrublands and woodlands, so understanding the processes which regulate woody encroachment is necessary to conserve or restore these ecosystems.

Local and landscape environmental heterogeneity drive ant community structure in temperate seminatural upland grasslands

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2023
Environmental heterogeneity is an important driver of ecological communities. Here, we assessed the effects of local and landscape spatial environmental heterogeneity on ant community structure in temperate seminatural upland grasslands of Central ...

Improving Speaker Recognition in Environmental Noise With Adaptive Filter

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2022
Speaker recognition is challenging in real-world environments. Typically, studies approach noises only in an additive manner. However, real environments commonly present reverberating conditions that worsen speech processing. When not considering reverberation in the system modeling, the system may not be robust when applied to real-world conditions ...

Role of ion track filters in environmental surveillance

open access: yesEnvironment International, 2001
Ion track filters (ITFs) are produced by physiochemical treatments to thin films of polymers and mica irradiated by heavy ions. These ITFs have many applications in the fields of science and technology. In the present investigation, the developed ITFs from polycarbonate films have been used to filter bacteria of various types in water.

Phylogenetic clustering of fungal communities in human‐disturbed streams

open access: yesEcosphere, 2016
Phylogenetic community structure is increasingly used to examine community assembly, but the influence of anthropogenic disturbance on phylogenetic community structure remains little explored.
