Effects of large herbivores on grassland arthropod diversity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Both arthropods and large grazing herbivores are important components and drivers of biodiversity in grassland ecosystems, but a synthesis of how arthropod diversity is affected by large herbivores has been largely missing. To fill this gap, we conducted

Relationships between Plant Diversity and Grasshopper Diversity and Abundance in the Little Missouri National Grassland

open access: yesPsyche: A Journal of Entomology, 2011
A continuing challenge in orthopteran ecology is to understand what determines grasshopper species diversity at a given site. In this study, the objective was to determine if variation in grasshopper abundance and diversity between 23 sites in western ...

Using Generic Summarization to Improve Music Information Retrieval Tasks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In order to satisfy processing time constraints, many MIR tasks process only a segment of the whole music signal. This practice may lead to decreasing performance, since the most important information for the tasks may not be in those processed segments.
