The unpredictably eruptive dynamics of spruce budworm populations in eastern Canada
We examine historical population data for spruce budworm from several locations through the period 1930–1997, and use density‐dependent recruitment curves to test whether the pattern of population growth over time is more consistent with Royama's (1984; Ecological Monographs 54:429–462) linear R(t) model of harmonic oscillation at Green River New ...

By means of the method of upper and lower solutions together with the Schauder fixed point theorem, the conditions for the existence of at least one positive solution are established for some higher-order singular infinite-point fractional differential ...

Network topology drives population temporal variability in experimental habitat networks
Habitat patches connected by dispersal pathways form habitat networks. We explored how network topology affects population outcomes in laboratory experiments using a model species (Daphnia carinata). Central habitat nodes in complex lattice networks exhibited lower temporal variability in population sizes, suggesting they support more stable ...

Sobolev norm estimates of solutions for the sublinear Emden-Fowler equation [PDF]
We study the sublinear Emden-Fowler equation in small domains. As the domain becomes smaller, so does any solution. We investigate the convergence rate of the Sobolev norm of solutions as the volume of the domain converges to zero. The result is obtained

occumb: An R package for site occupancy modeling of eDNA metabarcoding data
This study introduces a new R package, occumb, for the convenient application of site occupancy modeling using environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding data. We outline a data analysis workflow, including data setup, model fitting, model assessment, and comparison of potential study settings based on model predictions, all of which can be performed using

Positive solutions for nonvariational Robin problems
We study a nonlinear Robin problem driven by the p-Laplacian and with a reaction term depending on the gradient (convection term). Using the theory of nonlinear operators of monotone-type and the asymptotic analysis of a suitable perturbation of the original equation, we show the existence of a positive smooth solution.

The dual nature of TDC – bridging dendritic and T cells in immunity
TDC are hematopoietic cells combining dendritic and T cell features. They reach secondary lymphoid organs (SLOs) and peripheral organs (liver and lungs) after FLT3‐dependent development in the bone marrow and maturation in the thymus. TDC are activated and enriched in SLOs upon viral infection, suggesting that they might play unique immune roles, since

Study on the Algorithm of Multifunctional Bone External Fixator
This paper discussed the problem that parameters of bone external fixator are difficult to calculate in the practical application. Positive solution is described in detail. We used MATLAB software to make simulation experiment.
