Ecological non-linear state space model selection via adaptive particle Markov chain Monte Carlo (AdPMCMC) [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2010
We develop a novel advanced Particle Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm that is capable of sampling from the posterior distribution of non-linear state space models for both the unobserved latent states and the unknown model parameters. We apply this novel methodology to five population growth models, including models with strong and weak Allee effects,

Physical factors in benthic ecology: effects of changing sand particle size on beach fauna

open access: closedOceanographic Literature Review, 1996
This paper reports on the disposal of diamond mine tailings on a Namibian sandy beach. Coarse sand in the tailings greatly increases the grain slze of the affected parts of the beach and thereby provides the opportunity to assess the effects of changing ...

Efficient recurrent neural network methods for anomalously diffusing single particle short and noisy trajectories [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical, 2021
Anomalous diffusion occurs at very different scales in nature, from atomic systems to motions in cell organelles, biological tissues or ecology, and also in artificial materials, such as cement.

Tracer-based investigation of organic aerosols in marine atmospheres from marginal seas of China to the northwest Pacific Ocean [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2020
We investigated the geographic distributions of organic tracers in total suspended particles over the marginal seas of China, including the Yellow and Bohai seas (YBS) and the South China Sea (SCS), and the northwest Pacific Ocean (NWPO) in spring, when ...

Particle size influences decay rates of environmental DNA in aquatic systems

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, 2023
Environmental DNA (eDNA) analysis is a powerful tool for remote detection of target organisms. However, obtaining quantitative and longitudinal information from eDNA data is challenging, requiring a deep understanding of eDNA ecology.

Inversion of Soil Salinity Using Multisource Remote Sensing Data and Particle Swarm Machine Learning Models in Keriya Oasis, Northwestern China

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Soil salinization is a global problem that damages soil ecology and affects agricultural development. Timely management and monitoring of soil salinity are essential to achieve the most sustainable development goals in arid and semi-arid regions.

Investigation of the Uniformity of Gel Shrinkage by Imaging Tracer Particles Using X‐Ray Microtomography

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView., 2023
A novel method for tracking structural changes in gels using widely accessible microcomputed tomography is presented and validated for various hydro‐, alco‐, and aerogels. The core idea of the method is to track positions of micrometer‐sized tracer particles entrapped in the gel and relate them to the density of the gel network.

Conserved Viral Transcription Plays a Key Role in Virus-Like Particle Production of the Parasitoid Wasp Venturia canescens

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 2022
This study shows that endogenization of a nudivirus genome in a Campopleginae parasitoid wasp has led to the conservation, as for endogenized nudiviruses in braconid parasitoid wasps, of the viral RNA polymerase function, required for the transcription ...

Organosolv lignin particles as an ecological reagents in the Kupfershiefer copper ore flotation

open access: yesPhysicochemical Problems of Mineral Processing, 2023
Mineral separation relies heavily on the process of flotation. This study explored the feasibility of using organosolv lignin nanoparticles and microparticles (OLP) as a greener alternative to xanthates in the flotation process for mineral separation. Xanthates are widely used but pose environmental and health risks. The efficiency of OLP as collectors
