The road to integrate climate change projections with regional land‐use–biodiversity models

People and Nature
Current approaches to project spatial biodiversity responses to climate change mainly focus on the direct effects of climate on species while regarding land use and land cover as constant or prescribed by global land‐use scenarios.

Transferability of correlative and process‐based species distribution models revisited: A response to Booth

Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Here, we respond to Booth's criticism of our paper, “Predictive ability of a process‐based versus a correlative species distribution model.” Booth argues that our usage of the MaxEnt model was flawed and that the conclusions of our paper are by ...

Psychosocial Outcomes in Patients With Endocrine Tumor Syndromes: A Systematic Review

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction The combination of disease manifestations, the familial burden, and varying penetrance of endocrine tumor syndromes (ETSs) is unique. This review aimed to portray and summarize available data on psychosocial outcomes in patients with ETSs and explore gaps and opportunities for future research and care.

Nonlocal Mechanistic Models in Ecology: Numerical Methods and Parameter Inferences

Applied Sciences, 2023
Animals utilize their surroundings to make decisions on how to navigate and establish their territories. Some species gather information about competing groups by observing them from a distance, detecting scent markings, or relying on memories of ...

Evaluation of rate law approximations in bottom-up kinetic models of metabolism. [PDF]

, 2016
BackgroundThe mechanistic description of enzyme kinetics in a dynamic model of metabolism requires specifying the numerical values of a large number of kinetic parameters.

The MedSupport Multilevel Intervention to Enhance Support for Pediatric Medication Adherence: Development and Feasibility Testing

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction We developed MedSupport, a multilevel medication adherence intervention designed to address root barriers to medication adherence. This study sought to explore the feasibility and acceptability of the MedSupport intervention strategies to support a future full‐scale randomized controlled trial.

On the mechanistic understanding of predator feeding behavior using the functional response concept

Ecosphere, 2020
Functional response models describe the relationship between prey density and per capita prey consumption rate by a predator. Type II functional responses, in which density‐dependent predation occurs via a decelerating feeding rate, seem to prevail in ...

Consistencies and contradictions in different polymer models of chromatin architecture

Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2023
Genetic information is stored in very long DNA molecules, which are folded to form chromatin, a similarly long polymer fibre that is ultimately organised into chromosomes.
