MOEA/D‐based multi‐row facility layout optimisation method with discontinuity perceiving of the Pareto front

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract In a multi‐row facility layout problem (MRFLP), facilities are arranged in more than one row under the limited layout area. Considering different layout factors, various extensions of MRFLP have been modelled. However, the orientation of input/output (I/O) point in a facility, as a key factor that plays a direct impact on flow cost, is seldom ...

To converge or diverge? Phenological shifts driven by plant genome size and functional traits under nitrogen deposition and mowing

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Linkages between genome size (GS) and phenology underscore the diversification of functional traits, which are indicative of life‐history and resource acquisition strategies.

Soil and microbial responses to wild ungulate trampling depend more on ecosystem type than trampling severity

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Physical trampling is a ubiquitous activity of walking vertebrates, but is poorly understood as a mechanism impacting biogeochemical cycling in soil. Lack of detailed knowledge of soil abiotic–biotic interactions underlying trampling effects, and the primary sources of ...

Seasonal nitrogen enrichment alters plant community stability–area relationship through decreased biodiversity, species asynchrony, and population stability

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition generally reduces the temporal stability of plant communities (community stability). The positive community stability–area relationship (CSAR) has been reported, but the effects of N deposition on CSAR are unexplored, particularly ...

Low‐nitrogen addition amplifies the positive effect of grazing exclusion on plant diversity and community stability

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Grazing exclusion is widely used for grassland restoration but often improves productivity slowly, whereas nitrogen (N) addition can rapidly boost productivity yet may erode plant diversity and community stability over the long term.

Linguistic Evidence Suggests that Xiōng‐nú and Huns Spoke the Same Paleo‐Siberian Language

open access: yesTransactions of the Philological Society, EarlyView.
Abstract The Xiōng‐nú were a tribal confederation who dominated Inner Asia from the third century BC to the second century AD. Xiōng‐nú descendants later constituted the ethnic core of the European Huns. It has been argued that the Xiōng‐nú spoke an Iranian, Turkic, Mongolic or Yeniseian language, but the linguistic affiliation of the Xiōng‐nú and the ...

From Nominalisation to Passive in Old Tibetan: Reconstructing Grammatical Meaning in an Extinct Language1

open access: yesTransactions of the Philological Society, EarlyView.
Abstract Based on an analysis of the Old Literary Tibetan corpus—a corpus of the oldest documented Tibetic language—the present study provides evidence that literary Tibetan v3 verb stems (commonly termed ‘future’) initially encoded passive voice. New arguments put forward in this article range from Trans‐Himalayan nominal morphology to early Tibetan ...
