A Modified Location-Weighted Landscape Index to Evaluate Nutrient Retention in Agricultural Wetlands: A Case Study of the Honghe Hani Rice Terraces World Heritage Site

open access: yesAgriculture, 2022
Understanding the influence of landscape patterns on the water quality of agricultural wetlands is critically important for their management and related decision-making. However, the question of how to quantify this objectively remains a challenge in the

Machine learning landscapes and predictions for patient outcomes [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2017
The theory and computational tools developed to interpret and explore energy landscapes in molecular science are applied to the landscapes defined by local minima for neural networks. These machine learning landscapes correspond to fits of training data,

Visual scanning patterns and executive function in relation to facial emotion recognition in aging [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
OBJECTIVE: The ability to perceive facial emotion varies with age. Relative to younger adults (YA), older adults (OA) are less accurate at identifying fear, anger, and sadness, and more accurate at identifying disgust.

Dynamic energy landscapes of riboswitches help interpret conformational rearrangements and function. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2012
Riboswitches are RNAs that modulate gene expression by ligand-induced conformational changes. However, the way in which sequence dictates alternative folding pathways of gene regulation remains unclear.

The effect of landscape complexity and microclimate on the thermal tolerance of a pest insect [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Landscape changes are known to exacerbate the impacts of climate change. As such, understanding the combined effect of climate and landscape on agroecosystems is vital if we are to maintain the function of agroecosystems.

Avian functional responses to landscape recovery [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2019
Restoring native vegetation in agricultural landscapes can reverse biodiversity declines via species gains. Depending on whether the traits of colonizers are complementary or redundant to the assemblage, species gains can increase the efficiency or stability of ecological functions, yet detecting these processes is not straightforward. We propose a new

Habitat selection in natural and human-modified landscapes by capybaras (Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris), an important host for Amblyomma sculptum ticks.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Human activities are changing landscape structure and function globally, affecting wildlife space use, and ultimately increasing human-wildlife conflicts and zoonotic disease spread.
