Equilibrium States of Two Stochastic Models in Mathematical Ecology [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2007
This work deals with two problems arising in mathematical ecology. The first problem is concerned with diploid branching particle models and its behavior when rapid stirring is added to the interaction. The particle models involve two types of particles, male and female, and branching can only occur when both types of particles are present.

Assessing alkali activation of waste stone wool from greenhouses combined with direct foaming or granulation to obtain recycled plant substrate [version 1; peer review: 1 approved, 2 approved with reservations]

open access: yesOpen Research Europe
Background Stone wool is commonly used as a plant substrate in soilless cultivation and discarded after one growing season. Stone wool waste is difficult to recycle, and thus it is typically landfilled.

Diazotrophs and N2-Fixation Associated With Particles in Coastal Estuarine Waters

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Putative heterotrophic bacteria carrying out N2-fixation, so-called non-cyanobacterial diazotrophs (NCDs), are widely distributed in marine waters, but details of how the O2-inhibited N2-fixation process is promoted in the oxic water column remains ...

Modeling of small sea floaters in the central Mediterranean Sea: seasonality of at-sea distributions [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
Floating marine debris represent a threat to marine and coastal ecology. Since the Mediterranean basin is one of the highly impacted regions, both by the coastal pollution as well as from sea traffic, the potential harm of a floating pollution on the marine ecology could be overwhelming in this area.

Discreteness of populations enervates biodiversity in evolution [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2010
Biodiversity widely observed in ecological systems is attributed to the dynamical balance among the competing species. The time-varying populations of the interacting species are often captured rather well by a set of deterministic replicator equations in the evolutionary game theory.

Generalized Stoichiometry and Biogeochemistry for Astrobiological Applications [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
A central need in the field of astrobiology is generalized perspectives on life that make it possible to differentiate abiotic and biotic chemical systems. A key component of many past and future astrobiological measurements is the elemental ratio of various samples.

Global spatiotemporal optimization of photovoltaic and wind power to achieve the Paris Agreement targets

open access: yesNature Communications
Limiting global warming below 1.5 or 2 °C calls for achieving energy systems with net-zero carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions likely by 2040 or 2070, but the pledged actions under current policies cannot meet these targets.

Nonequilibrium Statistical Physics in Ecology: Vegetation Patterns, Animal Mobility and Temporal Fluctuations [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2017
This thesis focuses on the applications of mathematical tools and concepts brought from nonequilibrium statistical physics to the modeling of ecological problems. The first part provides a short introduction where the theoretical concepts and mathematical tools that are going to be used in subsequent chapters are presented.

The ecology of flows and drift wave turbulence in CSDX: A model

open access: yes, 2018
This paper describes the ecology of drift wave turbulence and mean flows in the coupled drift-ion acoustic wave plasma of a CSDX linear device. A 1D reduced model that studies the spatiotemporal evolution of plasma mean density n¯, and mean flows v¯y and
