Harnessing the power of machine and deep learning for transferring joint species distribution models considering the structure of biotic interactions

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
The transferability of single or joint species distribution models ((j)SDMs) depends on their ability to predict beyond the observed environmental range and to remain consistent despite shifts in biotic interactions. Transfer accuracy may be improved by recent advances in the application of deep learning that provide greater flexibility and potentially

Malignant Transformation of Oral Epithelial Dysplasia in Southern Finland

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Oral epithelial dysplasia (OED) often precedes oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). The aim was to elucidate the risk and time of malignant transformation (MT) of OED. Methods Patients diagnosed with OED between 2001 and 2011 in Helsinki and Uusimaa, Finland were included.

Binuclear Copper‐Dependent Oxidative Enzymes Involved in Fungal Natural Product Modifications

open access: yesJournal of the Chinese Chemical Society, EarlyView.
This article summarizes recent biochemical characterizations of a new enzyme family named by the authors as binuclear copper‐dependent oxidative enzymes (BiNCOs). Found in fungal natural product biosynthesis, BiNCOs catalyze diverse CH functionalization reactions, including C(sp3)H halogenation, C(sp3)H hydroxylation, C(sp3)O macrocyclization, and ...

The lichen flora of the Chagos Archipelago : including a comparison with other island and coastal tropical floras [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The 1996 Chagos Expedition provided the first opportunity to study the archipelago’s lichen flora. Seventeen of the 55 islands were ecologically investigated, some in more detail than others, and lists and representative collections of lichens have been ...

Ultrasonography Sliding Sign as a Predictor for Intraabdominal Adhesions in Repeated Cesarean Deliveries: Retrospective Cross Sectional Study

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
This retrospective cohort study included 350 individuals who underwent cesarean section. Data from 198 participants who met the inclusion criteria were analyzed. The region below ROC curves for the sliding sign was 0.717 (95% CI: 0.645–0.789). The sensitivity was 58.9%, specificity was 84.6%, positive predictive value (PPV) was 81.7%, negative ...

Lichen cover mapping for caribou ranges in interior Alaska and Yukon

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2020
Previous research indicates that the effects of climate warming, including shrub expansion and increased fire frequency may lead to declining lichen abundance in arctic tundra and northern alpine areas. Lichens are important forage for caribou ( Rangifer

Biocrust effects on soil infiltrability in the Mu Us Desert: Soil hydraulic properties analysis and modeling

open access: yesJournal of Hydrology and Hydromechanics, 2021
The presence of biocrusts changes water infiltration in the Mu Us Desert. Knowledge of the hydraulic properties of biocrusts and parameterization of soil hydraulic properties are important to improve simulation of infiltration and soil water dynamics in ...
