Reintroduction of an Endangered Butterfly, the Mottled Duskywing (Erynnis martialis)

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
We reintroduced Mottled Duskywing (Erynnis martialis), an endangered skipper butterfly, at different life‐stages to restored oak savanna habitat in Ontario, Canada and then performed intensive post‐release monitoring. Our results show that, at one of three sites, a population was established within two years of initiating releases and that pupae and ...

Effects of soil physical properties on dung beetle assemblages in pasture landscapes of the Brazilian Cerrado

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
We assessed the effect of the type of soil texture (loamy sand and sandy loam) and its physical properties on dung beetle species assemblages in a pastureland region of the Brazilian Cerrado. We found a reduction in the total and paracoprid beetle abundances in loamy sand soil. Furthermore, the increase of soil compaction negatively affected the entire

Coherent Orthogonal Polynomials

, 2012
We discuss as a fundamental characteristic of orthogonal polynomials like the existence of a Lie algebra behind them, can be added to their other relevant aspects.

Residual permutation tests for feature importance in machine learning

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Psychological research has traditionally relied on linear models to test scientific hypotheses. However, the emergence of machine learning (ML) algorithms has opened new opportunities for exploring variable relationships beyond linear constraints.

Investigating the Properties and Dynamic Applications of Δ_h Legendre–Appell Polynomials

Mathematics
This research aims to introduce and examine a new type of polynomial called the Δh Legendre–Appell polynomials. We use the monomiality principle and operational rules to define the Δh Legendre–Appell polynomials and explore their properties.

Representation of obligate groundwater‐dwelling copepod diversity in European protected areas

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Groundwaters sustain diverse surface ecosystems and are populated by metazoan species, mostly invertebrates, that provide fundamental ecological functions and are often of prominent conservation value due to narrow endemism and high phylogenetic rarity.

Orthogonalizing q-Bernoulli polynomials

Demonstratio Mathematica
In this study, we utilize the Gram-Schmidt orthogonalization method to construct a new set of orthogonal polynomials called OBn(x,q){{\rm{OB}}}_{n}(x,q) from the q-Bernoulli polynomials.

The telephone polynomials: An Appell-type orthogonal polynomials connecting Hermite–Laguerre polynomials

Nuclear Physics B
This article investigates a new Appell-type sequence, the telephone polynomials, which extend the classical telephone (involution) numbers. We present their fundamental algebraic properties, structural characterizations, and diverse interconnections with

Mapping bee diversity with landscape‐level models to inform conservation

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Native bee conservation is complicated by limited distribution data and life history knowledge. However, recent state‐wide pollinator surveys, combined with species distribution models that account for biased datasets and capture regional habitat associations, present a strong foundation for informing essential conservation action.
