Comparison of surface and planimetric landscape metrics for mountainous land cover pattern quantification in Lancang Watershed, China [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Landscape pattern structure can be quantified by landscape pattern indices (LPIs). One major drawback of the commonly used LPIs is that the landscape is represented by a planar map, which depicts the projection of a nonflat surface into a 2-dimensional ...

Visualizing energy landscapes with metric disconnectivity graphs [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Computational Chemistry, 2014
The visualization of multidimensional energy landscapes is important, providing insight into the kinetics and thermodynamics of a system, as well the range of structures a system can adopt. It is, however, highly nontrivial, with the number of dimensions required for a faithful reproduction of the landscape far higher than can be represented in two or ...
