Cross-biome comparison of microbial association networks
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015 Clinical and environmental meta-omics studies are accumulating an ever-growing amount of microbial abundance data over a wide range of ecosystems. With a sufficiently large sample number, these microbial communities can be explored by constructing and ...

Effect of forest structure changes on permutation and diversity of corticolous lichens (case study: Kheiroud forest, Nowshahr) [PDF]
تحقیقات جنگل و صنوبر ایران, 2013 Although quite a few studies have been done in respect to forest structure and development in Iran, there is no study dealing with the evolution of lichens at different stages of forest development.

Niche partitioning and the storage effect facilitate coexistence in an amphibian community
Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Virtually all natural community assemblages are dominated by a handful of common species. Dominant species can exert negative impacts on biodiversity through competitive exclusion, and thus there is a strong incentive to understand imbalances in ...

Species Diversity Induces Idiosyncratic Effects on Litter Decomposition in a Degraded Meadow Steppe
Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2021 Litter decomposition is a fundamental path for nutrient cycling in a natural ecosystem. However, it remains unclear how species diversity, including richness and evenness, affects the decomposition dynamics in the context of grassland degradation.

Nonnegative Matrix Factorization With Data-Guided Constraints For Hyperspectral Unmixing
Remote Sensing, 2017 Hyperspectral unmixing aims to estimate a set of endmembers and corresponding abundances in pixels. Nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) and its extensions with various constraints have been widely applied to hyperspectral unmixing.
