Extinction of the human species: What could cause it and how likely is it to occur?
Cambridge Prisms: ExtinctionThe possibility of human extinction has received growing academic attention over the last several decades. Research has analysed possible pathways to human extinction, as well as ethical considerations relating to human survival.

Modeling the within-host dynamics of cholera: bacterial–viral interaction
Journal of Biological Dynamics, 2017 Novel deterministic and stochastic models are proposed in this paper for the within-host dynamics of cholera, with a focus on the bacterial–viral interaction.

RE-IGNITION OF MULTI-SPECIES SOOT CLOUDS IN BUILDING FIRES [PDF]
, 2007 The re-ignition potential of multi-species soot clouds in building fires were investigated based on their extinction characteristics. The investigation was carried out theoretically using an adaptation of Semenov’s thermal explosion theory.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The Upper Cretaceous São José do Rio Preto Formation (Bauru Group, southeastern Brazil) has yielded a fragmentary but taxonomically diverse record of titanosaur sauropods, although elements from cervical series remain scarce. Here, we describe a nearly complete sauropod axis from the Vila Ventura Paleontological Area, representing an uncommon ...

Quasi-probability Approach for Modelling Local Extinction and Counter-gradient in Turbulent Premixed Combustion [PDF]
, 2018 In opposition to standard probability distributions, quasi-probability distributions can have negative values which highlight nonclassical properties of the corresponding system.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The Late Triassic–Early Jurassic fissures of the Bristol Channel area (southwest England and south Wales) are renowned for their diverse vertebrate faunas. These assemblages have yielded an array of predominantly small‐bodied forms that are crucial to our understanding of the early evolution of several major tetrapod clades.

The probability of extinction of a dynamic epidemic model
, 2012 We consider the spread of an epidemic through a population divided into n sub-populations, in which individuals move between populations according to a Markov transition matrix Σ and infectives can only make infectious contacts with members of their ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Phylogenetic comparative methods have been used in recent literature to work with laws and test for regularities (evolutionary associations of quantitative features) and evolutionary singularities (features that evolved in a single taxon). We analyzed these uses epistemologically, taking the evolution of red‐blood‐cell mean corpuscular volume (

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Prozostrodon brasiliensis, a probainognathian cynodont of the clade Prozostrodontia, is recognized as a key taxon for understanding the origin of Mammaliaformes and mammals. Despite detailed investigations of its cranial anatomy, the postcranial skeleton has received comparatively less attention.
