Particle swarm optimization algorithm for parameter estimation in Gamma-Poisson distribution model of k-tree distance [PDF]

open access: yesComputational Ecology and Software, 2015
Distance sampling is a flexible and efficient inventory technique in forestry and ecology, especially in highly dense plant communities, and in difficult terrain. Point-to-tree distance or tree-to-tree distance was used to estimate characteristics of the

Particles, environments, and possible ecologies in the Jovian atmosphere [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 1976
The eddy diffusion coefficient is estimated as a function of altitude, separately for the Jovian troposphere and mesosphere. Complex organic molecules produced by the Ly alpha photolysis of methane may possibly be the absorbers in the lower mesosphere which account for the low reflectivity of Jupiter in the near ultraviolet.

Polystyrene microplastic contamination versus microplankton abundances in two lagoons of the Florida Keys

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
A microscopic study of microplankton in two coastal lagoons in the Florida Keys coincidently, and unexpectedly, revealed the widespread presence of high concentrations of polystyrene microplastic particles.

Chemical composition, sources and evolution of wintertime inorganic and organic aerosols in urban Shanghai, China

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2023
China experienced severe haze pollution in the past decades. However, systematic characterization of atmospheric fine particles with advanced measurement techniques has been very scarce in Shanghai, which is the largest megacity in China.

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

Defective subviral particles modify ecological equilibria and enhance viral coexistence

open access: yesFrontiers in Virology, 2022
ABSTRACT Cooperation is a main driver of biological complexity at all levels. In the viral world, gene sharing among viral genomes, complementation between genomes or interactions within quasispecies are frequently observed. In this contribution, we explore the advantages that flexible associations between fully fledged viruses and ...

Study on Characteristic Spectrum and Multiple Classifier Fusion With Different Particle Size in Marine Sediments

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
Marine sediments record much information of the ecological process, which highly correlated with global and local environmental change. Particle size and its distributions of sediments indicate different ecological functions, thus are the key questions ...
