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

, 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 ...

Evolutionary connectionism: algorithmic principles underlying the evolution of biological organisation in evo-devo, evo-eco and evolutionary transitions [PDF]

, 2015
The mechanisms of variation, selection and inheritance, on which evolution by natural selection depends, are not fixed over evolutionary time. Current evolutionary biology is increasingly focussed on understanding how the evolution of developmental ...

Towards an ecology of soil microplastics

, 2020
Microplastic pollution is a topic of increasing concern for the world's oceans, freshwaters and, most recently, soils. Microplastics have been found in soils across the globe.

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

IEEE 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 ...

Atmo-ecometabolomics: a novel atmospheric particle chemical characterization methodology for ecological research [PDF]

Environmental Monitoring and Assessment, 2019
Aerosol particles play important roles in processes controlling the composition of the atmosphere and function of ecosystems. A better understanding of the composition of aerosol particles is beginning to be recognized as critical for ecological research to further comprehend the link between aerosols and ecosystems.

Spatial patterns of competing random walkers [PDF]

, 2014
We review recent results obtained from simple individual-based models of biological competition in which birth and death rates of an organism depend on the presence of other competing organisms close to it.

Ocean carbon sequestration: Particle fragmentation by copepods as a significant unrecognised factor?

Bioessays, 2020
Ocean biology helps regulate global climate by fixing atmospheric CO2 and exporting it to deep waters as sinking detrital particles. New observations demonstrate that particle fragmentation is the principal factor controlling the depth to which these ...

On predicting particle capture rates in aquatic ecosystems.

PLoS ONE, 2021
Recent advances in understanding the capture of moving suspended particles in aquatic ecosystems have opened up new possibilities for predicting rates of suspension feeding, larval settlement, seagrass pollination and sediment removal. Drawing on results
