Context and semantics in exchange networks [PDF]
The NETSEED project deals with strengthening management of agro-biodiversity through social networks using an interdisciplinary method for analyzing how local seed systems impact the diversity of domesticated plants.

Upon a matrix representation of a binary bipartite network, via the permutation invariance, a coupling geometry is computed to approximate the minimum energy macrostate of a network's system.

Analysing the sensitivity of nestedness detection methods
Many bipartite and unipartite real-world networks display a nested structure. Examples pervade different disciplines: biological ecosystems (e.g. mutualistic networks), economic networks (e.g. manufactures and contractors networks) to financial networks (e.g. bank lending networks), etc.

Evolutionary legacies structure the geography of seagrass traits across the world's oceans
Summary Traits modulate species' ability to track shifts in climate, yet the extent to which traits have been shaped by the contemporary environment and/or historical processes remains poorly understood. Here, we fill this gap for the world's seagrasses, habitat‐forming species that provide critical ecosystem services.

Aim To date, despite their great potential biogeographical regionalization models have been mostly developed on descriptive and empirical bases. This paper aims at applying the beta‐diversity framework on a statistically representative data set to ...

Global climate change will likely modify the plant assemblages of the Neotropical seasonally dry forest based on the physiological capabilities of the species. Abstract Neotropical seasonal dry forest (NSDF) is one of the most threatened ecosystems according to global climate change predictions.

Abstract Introduction Habitat restoration is applied to promote ecological recovery in degraded freshwater systems. However, it remains unclear whether stream restoration measures enhance Water Framework Directive (WFD) ecological status and biodiversity.

Understanding Zipf's law of word frequencies through sample-space collapse in sentence formation
The formation of sentences is a highly structured and history-dependent process. The probability of using a specific word in a sentence strongly depends on the 'history' of word-usage earlier in that sentence. We study a simple history-dependent model of

Abstract It is commonly assumed that victims' maladaptive cognitions concerning the cause of their victimization (self‐blame) or its potential solution (e.g., helplessness) contribute to psychological problems. Nevertheless, there is limited empirical research on the conditions that lead to the emergence of such cognitions.

Two helminth‐rodent networks were analyzed for two distinct areas. Network modularity, nestedness, and degree of specialization were calculated for each network. Higher network modularity than nestedness and high network specialization were observed in both networks, suggesting functional and/or taxonomic specialization between helminth species and ...
