Local costs of conservation exceed those borne by the global majority [PDF]
Cost data are crucial in conservation planning to identify more efficient and equitable land use options. However, many studies focus on just one cost type and neglect others, particularly those borne locally. We develop, for a high priority conservation area, spatial models of two local costs that arise from protected areas: foregone agricultural ...

A Link Prediction Algorithm for Temporal Directed Social Network [PDF]
Aiming at the problem that the existing majority link prediction algorithm has low accuracy,a link prediction algorithm based on the Normalized Common Neighbor and Local Clustering (NCNLC) similarity index is proposed based on the combination of global ...
