Immigration, local dispersal limitation, and the repeatability of community composition under neutral and niche dynamics. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Repeatability of community composition has been a critical aspect for community structure, which is closely associated with community stability, predictability, conservation biology and ecological restoration.

Neutral Emergence and Coarse Graining Cellular Automata [PDF]
, 2010 Emergent systems are often thought of as special, and are often linked to desirable properties like robustness, fault tolerance and adaptability. But, though not well understood, emergence is not a magical, unfathomable property.

TD-88Up: Upgraded neutral Earth's thermosphere total density TD-88 model [PDF]
Serbian Astronomical Journal, 2009 Improved constants of the total density TD-88 model for the Earth's neutral thermosphere are calculated. The model is fully functional within the height range of 200 to 500 km, with fixed values of the mean solar flux and geomagnetic index.

Analytical solution of a neutral model of biodiversity [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2003 The unified neutral model of biodiversity proposed by S. Hubbell is solved analytically: The distributions of species abundance in the metacommunity and in a local community are calculated exactly as a function of speciation and migration rates and of the size of the community.

Latitudinal phytoplankton distribution and the neutral theory of biodiversity [PDF]
, 2012 Aim Recent studies have suggested that global diatom distributions are not limited by dispersal, in the case of both extant species and fossil species, but rather that environmental filtering explains their spatial patterns.

Ecology and Evolution, 2018 In an era of global environmental change, understanding how disturbance affects the dynamics of ecological communities is crucial. However, few studies have theoretically explored the potential influence of disturbance including both intensity and ...

The edge of neutral evolution in social dilemmas [PDF]
, 2009 The functioning of animal as well as human societies fundamentally relies on cooperation. Yet, defection is often favorable for the selfish individual, and social dilemmas arise.

The Convergence to Equilibrium of Neutral Genetic Models [PDF]
Stochastic Analysis and Applications, 2009 This article is concerned with the long time behavior of neutral genetic population models, with fixed population size. We design an explicit, finite, exact, genealogical tree based representation of stationary populations that holds both for finite and infinite types (or alleles) models.
