Functional structure of plant communities along salinity gradients in Iranian salt marshes

Plant-Environment Interactions, 2022
Salt marshes are unique habitats between sea or saline lakes and land that need to be conserved from the effects of global change. Understanding the variation in functional structure of plant community along environmental gradients is critical to predict

Common spatial patterns of trees in various tropical forests: Small trees are associated with increased diversity at small spatial scales

Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Tropical forests are notable for their high species diversity, even on small spatial scales, and right‐skewed species and size abundance distributions.

Strong Environmental Filtering Based on Hydraulic Traits Occurring in the Lower Water Availability of Temperate Forest Communities

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
The trait-based approaches have made progress in understanding the community assembly process. Here, we explore the key traits that may shape community assembly patterns of the same community type but within different water availabilities.

Soil salinity is the main factor influencing the soil bacterial community assembly process under long-term drip irrigation in Xinjiang, China

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Identifying the potential factors associated with the impact of long-term drip irrigation (DI) on soil ecosystems is essential for responding to the environmental changes induced by extensive application of DI technology in arid regions.

Null Models for Formal Contexts [PDF]

Information, 2020
Null model generation for formal contexts is an important task in the realm of formal concept analysis. These random models are in particular useful for, but not limited to, comparing the performance of algorithms. Nonetheless, a thorough investigation of how to generate null models for formal contexts is absent.

Spatial Pattern and Ecological Process Difference Analyses of the Boundary Habitats of a Treeline Patch: A Case Study from the Li Mountain, North China

Land, 2022
Treeline patches are among Earth’s most sensitive and are important model ecosystems for assessing climate change trends. To explore ecological factors that limit the species’ survival in treelines, the treeline patch of Li Mountain National Nature ...

Comparing spatial null models for brain maps [PDF]

NeuroImage, 2020
Technological and data sharing advances have led to a proliferation of high-resolution structural and functional maps of the brain. Modern neuroimaging research increasingly depends on identifying correspondences between the topographies of these maps; however, most standard methods for statistical inference fail to account for their spatial properties.

Link Prediction in Directed Networks Utilizing the Role of Reciprocal Links

IEEE Access, 2020
Link prediction in directed networks has always been a hot topic in many fields including network science, information system and data mining. Intuitively, once links are endowed with certain orientations, their reciprocate nature can potentially provide
