Microgeographic variation in morphology within populations of threespine stickleback [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Local adaptation, the evolution of traits that make native individuals in a population have higher fitness than foreign individuals, is studied intensively in the field of evolutionary biology.

Textured Building Façades: Utilizing Morphological Adaptations Found in Nature for Evaporative Cooling

open access: yesBiomimetics, 2021
The overheating of buildings and their need for mechanical cooling is a growing issue as a result of climate change. The main aim of this paper is to examine the impact of surface texture on heat loss capabilities of concrete panels through evaporative ...

Investigating Waves and Temperature as Drivers of Kelp Morphology

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2020
Macroalgal morphological variation is determined to a large extent by a combination of environmental factors, with wave exposure and temperature perhaps the main influences, as they are key environmental properties to which a species becomes locally ...

Genetic and phenotypic divergence in an island bird: isolation by distance, by colonization or by adaptation? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Discerning the relative roles of adaptive and nonadaptive processes in generating differences among populations and species, as well as how these processes interact, is a fundamental aim in biology.

Beyond Soft Hands: Efficient Grasping With Non-Anthropomorphic Soft Grippers

open access: yesFrontiers in Robotics and AI, 2021
Grasping and manipulation are challenging tasks that are nonetheless critical for many robotic systems and applications. A century ago, robots were conceived as humanoid automata.

Morphological Component Analysis: An Adaptive Thresholding Strategy [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Image Processing, 2007
In a recent paper, a method called morphological component analysis (MCA) has been proposed to separate the texture from the natural part in images. MCA relies on an iterative thresholding algorithm, using a threshold which decreases linearly towards zero along the iterations.

A morphological adaptation approach to path planning inspired by slime mould [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of General Systems, 2015
Path planning is a classic problem in computer science and robotics which has recently been implemented in unconventional computing substrates such as chemical reaction–diffusion computers.
