Solving for Blameless and Optimal Control Under Prioritized Safety Constraints

open access: yesOptimal Control Applications and Methods, EarlyView.
Summary of the proposed method for solving for blameless and optimal control sequences. ABSTRACT In many safety‐critical optimal control problems, users may request multiple safety constraints that are jointly infeasible due to external factors such as subsystem failures, unexpected disturbances, or fuel limitations.

The relative roles of in situ diversification and lineage dispersal underlying diversity patterns at the assemblage level

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Speciation, extinction, and dispersal are the historical processes influencing the spatial distribution of lineages and strongly influence diversity patterns. Here, we apply a recently developed methodological approach to quantify the relative legacies in situ diversification history (i.e.

Functional diversity in agricultural landscapes: evidence of long‐term clustering and multi‐scale effects of land use on avian communities

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Functional diversity (FD) is an essential community property connecting biodiversity, ecosystem functioning, and conservation objectives. In agricultural landscapes, avian communities, which play key functional roles, are facing large‐scale biodiversity erosion, largely due to land‐use changes.

Fish loss in tropical coastal ecosystems can jeopardise nutrient supply to traditional fishing communities: A case study from Northeast Brazil

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Fisheries constitute one of the major benefits that oceans provide for people. Yet anthropogenic pressures and global changes are disrupting coastal systems, eroding marine biodiversity and threatening the food security of traditional populations.

Technological Properties of Biocomposites Produced With Agro‐Industrial Castor Waste Applicable in the Thermal Insulation of Buildings

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Biocomposites produced with agro‐industrial waste from castor hulls and pinewood bonded with urea‐formaldehyde adhesive, intended for application as thermal insulation in buildings. ABSTRACT The production of composite particleboards with agricultural waste has been the focus of many studies that aim to address environmental problems due to waste ...
