Density dependence and habitat selection affect overwintering abundance of monarch butterflies at regional and site scales in California

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
We analyzed annual overwintering counts in California to understand monarch population fluctuations. Climate and density‐dependent factors explain 64% of annual variability across groves, with density dependence being the primary driver. Within groves, tree characteristics and microclimate significantly influence monarch habitat selection, with ...

Optimal three-dimensional biped walking pattern generation based on geodesics

open access: yesInternational Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2017
The innovative three-dimensional humanoid biped gait planning method using geodesics is introduced in this article. In order to control three-dimensional walking, the three-dimensional linear inverted pendulum model is studied in our energy-optimal gait ...

Demonstration of an instream flow model to accommodate a threatened tiger beetle in riverine dune habitat

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Burrows of the threatened Gibson's Big Sand Tiger Beetle in riverine dune habitats are susceptible to flooding through managed flows. HEC‐RAS modelling identified the flow thresholds above which flooding would occur for burrows and affect the beetle larvae. These findings provide instream flow guidelines for conserving this threatened species and guide

Geometry of Hamiltonian Dynamics with Conformal Eisenhart Metric

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2011
We characterize the geometry of the Hamiltonian dynamics with a conformal metric. After investigating the Eisenhart metric, we study the corresponding conformal metric and obtain the geometric structure of the classical Hamiltonian dynamics. Furthermore,

Establishment and validation of a hair fall atlas for Chinese men based on trichoscopy

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
A new hair fall atlas with 7 scales is established and validated and ready to publish as a new methodology. We observed good consistency between the dermatologists' grading (PCC >0.8), and a strong correlation shown between clinical scores and hair fall attributes based on image analysis (|p| > 0.8).

Rethinking network embeddedness in international business: A review and view in space and time

open access: yesInternational Journal of Management Reviews, EarlyView.
Abstract Conceptual and empirical contributions to network embeddedness have flourished in the last decades within the field of international business (IB). Scholars have used the concept to explain IB phenomena through the lens of business actors’ network relationships and positions in their networks.

Equivalência entre o princípio variacional de Maupertuis, a segunda lei de Newton e a geometria conforme

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Ensino de Física
As aplicações da geometria diferencial na física não estão restritas somente à teoria da relatividade geral. Esse artigo é dedicado a mostrar uma das diversas aplicações dos métodos geométricos a um conceito físico elementar e ao mesmo tempo profundo: a ...

A Non‐Parametric Framework for Correlation Functions on Product Metric Spaces

open access: yesInternational Statistical Review, EarlyView.
Summary We propose a non‐parametric framework for analysing data defined over products of metric spaces, a versatile class encountered in various fields. This framework accommodates non‐stationarity and seasonality and is applicable to both local and global domains, such as the Earth's surface, as well as domains evolving over linear time or time ...
