Environmental and anthropogenic features mediate risk from human hunters and wolves for moose

open access: yesEcosphere, 2022
Landscape characteristics, seasonal changes in the environment, and daylight conditions influence space use and detection of prey and predators, resulting in spatiotemporal patterns of predation risk for the prey.

Using Machine Learning for Remote Behaviour Classification—Verifying Acceleration Data to Infer Feeding Events in Free-Ranging Cheetahs

open access: yesSensors, 2021
Behavioural studies of elusive wildlife species are challenging but important when they are threatened and involved in human-wildlife conflicts. Accelerometers (ACCs) and supervised machine learning algorithms (MLAs) are valuable tools to remotely ...

Moss kill dates and modeled summer temperature track episodic snowline lowering and ice cap expansion in Arctic Canada through the Common Era [PDF]

open access: yesClimate of the Past, 2023
Most extant ice caps mantling low-relief Arctic Canada landscapes remained cold based throughout the late Holocene, preserving in situ bryophytes killed as ice expanded across vegetated landscapes.

Patterns of Lynx Predation at the Interface between Protected Areas and Multi-Use Landscapes in Central Europe. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
In Central Europe, protected areas are too small to ensure survival of populations of large carnivores. In the surrounding areas, these species are often persecuted due to competition with game hunters.

Risk Assessment Method for Bullheading Killing Based on the Uncertainty of Formation Parameters

open access: yesLithosphere, 2022
To analyze the risks caused by the uncertainty of formation parameters to bullheading killing, a method for quantitatively evaluating the bullheading killing risks is established.

Biocontainment of Genetically Engineered Algae

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Algae (including eukaryotic microalgae and cyanobacteria) have been genetically engineered to convert light and carbon dioxide to many industrially and commercially relevant chemicals including biofuels, materials, and nutritional products. At industrial

Wright-Fisher diffusion with negative mutation rates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We study a family of n-dimensional diffusions, taking values in the unit simplex of vectors with nonnegative coordinates that add up to one. These processes satisfy stochastic differential equations which are similar to the ones for the classical Wright ...

Vive la Différence? Structural Diversity as a Challenge for Metanormative Theories [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Decision-making under normative uncertainty requires an agent to aggregate the assessments of options given by rival normative theories into a single assessment that tells her what to do in light of her uncertainty.

A numerical study on the effect of conductivity change in cell kill distribution in irreversible electroporation

open access: yesPolish Journal of Medical Physics And Engineering, 2020
Introduction: irreversible electroporation (IRE) is a tissue ablation technique and physical process used to kill the undesirable cells. In the IRE process by mathematical modelling we can calculate the cell kill probability and distribution inside the ...

Indirect interactions in the High Arctic. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Indirect interactions as mediated by higher and lower trophic levels have been advanced as key forces structuring herbivorous arthropod communities around the globe.
