Algorithmic monoculture and social welfare [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2021 SignificanceAlgorithmic monoculture is a growing concern in the use of algorithms for high-stakes screening decisions in areas such as employment and lending. If many firms use the same algorithm, even if it is more accurate than the alternatives, the resulting “monoculture” may be susceptible to correlated failures, much as a monocultural system is in

Picking on the Same Person: Does Algorithmic Monoculture lead to Outcome Homogenization? [PDF]
Neural Information Processing Systems, 2022 As the scope of machine learning broadens, we observe a recurring theme of algorithmic monoculture: the same systems, or systems that share components (e.g. training data), are deployed by multiple decision-makers.

Agronomy, 2022 Soil water reserves are very important for irrigation scheduling in arid and semiarid conditions. In these regions, irrigated olive groves could save water and improve water resource management if the spatial and temporal patterns of water reserve were ...

Rates and drivers of aboveground carbon accumulation in global monoculture plantation forests
Nature Communications, 2022 Restoring forest cover is a key action for mitigating climate change. Although monoculture plantations dominate existing commitments to restore forest cover, we lack a synthetic view of how carbon accumulates in these systems.

Soil & Tillage Research, 2022 Desertification degrades soil health and severely reduces crop productivity. Conventional tillage practices can amplify these problems in arid and semi-arid regions.

Biology, 2022 Simple Summary The integration of fish in rice fields can influence the diversity and structural composition of soil microbial communities. Therefore, soil microorganisms between rice–fish co-culture (RF) and rice monoculture (MC) were compared.

Assessing Ecosystem Services of Rice–Fish Co-Culture and Rice Monoculture in Thailand
Agronomy, 2022 Increasing production costs for rice monoculture and concerns about farming households’ food security have motivated farmers to adopt integrated rice–fish farming. To date, there has been little research that comparatively assesses the ecosystem services

Breeding Beyond Monoculture: Putting the “Intercrop” Into Crops
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Intercropping is both a well-established and yet novel agricultural practice, depending on one’s perspective. Such perspectives are principally governed by geographic location and whether monocultural practices predominate.

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Photosynthetic and photoprotective responses to simulated sunflecks were examined in the shade-demanding crop Amorphophallus xiei intercropped with maize (intercropping condition) or grown in an adjacent open site (monoculture condition).

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 Although fungi are regarded as very important components of soils, the knowledge of their community in agricultural (monocultural) soils is still limited.
