Effects of landscape structure and patch characteristics on the density of central populations of the eastern green lizard Lacerta viridis [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2023 A better understanding of the impact of habitat loss on population density can be achieved by evaluating effects of both parameters within remnant habitat patches and parameters of the landscape surrounding those patches. The integration of predictors at

Determining the Relationship Between Landscape Structure and Mental Components on Thermal Assessment [PDF]
Journal of Advances in Environmental Health Research, 2021 Background: The urban open spaces and their effects on the physical and mental health highlights the attention on the quality of such spaces. Thermal comfort is an environmental component affecting the reactionary behavior of people in these spaces.

Energy Landscapes for Electronic Structure [PDF]
Journal of Chemical Theory and Computation, 2020 Orbital-optimized multiple self-consistent-field (SCF) solutions are increasingly being interpreted as mean-field approximations of diabatic or excited electronic states. However, surprisingly little is known about the topology of the electronic energy landscape from which these multiple solutions emerge.

Disentangling direct and indirect effects of landscape structure on urban bird richness and functional diversity. [PDF]
Ecol Appl, 2022 As fragmented landscapes become increasingly common around the world, managing the spatial arrangement of landscape elements (i.e., landscape configuration) may help to promote the conservation of biodiversity.

Examining the Influence of Landscape Patch Shapes on River Water Quality
Land, 2023 River water quality can be affected by a range of factors, including both point and non-point sources of pollution. Of these factors, changes in land use and land cover are particularly significant, as they can alter the structure of the landscape and ...

Modelling the Structure of Terrestrial Landscapes in Urban Areas
Quaestiones Geographicae, 2021 The study of internal and external factors in the formation of an urban geosystem is determined by its complex structure and multiple connections. Based on geoinformation modelling, an analysis of the landscape structure of the city territory is carried ...

Structural Landscapes in Geometrically Frustrated Smectics [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2021 A phenomenological free energy model is proposed to describe the behavior of smectic liquid crystals, an intermediate phase that exhibits orientational order and layering at the molecular scale. Advantageous properties render the functional amenable to numerical simulation.
