Landscape Structure, Landscape Metrics and Biodiversity [PDF]
Living Reviews in Landscape Research, 2011 This paper deals with the question of the role landscape metrics can play in the investigation, evaluation and monitoring of landscape structure, and which linkages between landscape structure and biodiversity are known. In the first part, the scientific state of the art is presented; in the second part, the meaning of landscape metrics for nature ...

Structure and Power: an Emerging Landscape
Fundamenta Informaticae, 2022 In this paper, we give an overview of some recent work on applying tools from category theory in finite model theory, descriptive complexity, constraint satisfaction, and combinatorics. The motivations for this work come from Computer Science, but there may also be something of interest for model theorists and other logicians.

Field dynamics and tunneling in a flux landscape [PDF]
, 2008 We investigate field dynamics and tunneling between metastable minima in a landscape of Type IIB flux compactifications, utilizing monodromies of the complex structure moduli space to continuously connect flux vacua. After describing the generic features

Observing the Structure of the Landscape with the CMB Experiments [PDF]
, 2010 Assuming that inflation happened through a series of tunneling in the string theory landscape, it is argued that one can determine the structure of vacua using precise measurements of the scalar spectral index and tensor perturbations at large scales. It

Assessing the drivers shaping global patterns of urban vegetation landscape structure.
Science of the Total Environment, 2017 Vegetation is one of the main resources involve in ecosystem functioning and providing ecosystem services in urban areas. Little is known on the landscape structure patterns of vegetation existing in urban areas at the global scale and the drivers of ...
