Neotectonics, flooding patterns and landscape evolution in southern Amazonia [PDF]
, 2014 The paper examines the role of neotectonic activity in the evolution of the landscape in southern Amazonia during the Holocene. It uses both new and published data based on the analysis of remote sensing imagery and extensive field work in the Llanos de ...

Modelling stem cell differentiation related processes—A practical overview for biologists
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Stem cell differentiation is complex and difficult to control experimentally. This review introduces suitable computational modelling approaches that can support stem cell research, from mechanistic ODE and abstract models to multiscale and deep learning methods.

Quantitative Modeling of Landscape Evolution [PDF]
, 2013 This chapter reviews quantitative modeling of landscape evolution – which means that not just model studies but also modeling concepts are discussed. Quantitative modeling is contrasted with conceptual or physical modeling, and four categories of model ...

Three‐Dimensional Modeling of the Coevolution of Landscape and Soil Organic Carbon
Water Resources Research, 2019 Soil organic carbon (SOC) is going through rapid reorganization due to anthropogenic influences. Understanding how biogeochemical transformation and erosion‐induced SOC redistribution influence SOC profiles and stocks is critical to our food security and

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...

Landscape genetics of highly disturbed arable systems : insights gained from investigating a small mammal species [PDF]
, 2015 A large proportion of the earth’s surface is dedicated to food production, and agriculture is widely acknowledged to influence local biodiversity via habitat loss and degradation.

MOLECULAR EVOLUTION OVER THE MUTATIONAL LANDSCAPE [PDF]
Evolution, 1984 A common observation in phylogenetic comparisons of the amino acid sequences of a particular protein is that the rate of evolution of the protein is nearly constant over extended periods of time. This constancy was first noticed by Zuckerkandl and Pauling (1965) and prompted them to call the amino acid substitution process a "molecular evolutionary ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Cancer progression is regulated by the dynamic matrix code of the tumor microenvironment, which influences cellular behavior and disease development. Importantly, matrix remodeling in three‐dimensional cancer models more accurately reflects in vivo conditions compared to conventional two‐dimensional systems.
