Height-diameter allometry of tropical forest trees [PDF]

, 2010
Tropical tree height-diameter (H:D) relationships may vary by forest type and region making large-scale estimates of above-ground biomass subject to bias if they ignore these differences in stem allometry.

Family Communication about End-of-Life Decisions and the Enactment of the Decision-Maker Role

Behavioral Sciences, 2017
End-of-life (EOL) decisions in families are complex and emotional sites of family interaction necessitating family members coordinate roles in the EOL decision-making process.

Species divergence and phylogenetic variation of ecophysiological traits in lianas and trees. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
The climbing habit is an evolutionary key innovation in plants because it is associated with enhanced clade diversification. We tested whether patterns of species divergence and variation of three ecophysiological traits that are fundamental for plant ...

Constructing Multivariate Survival Trees: The MST Package for R

Journal of Statistical Software, 2018
Multivariate survival trees require few statistical assumptions, are easy to interpret, and provide meaningful diagnosis and prediction rules. Trees can handle a large number of predictors with mixed types and do not require predictor variable ...

The priority R-tree

ACM Transactions on Algorithms, 2004
We present the priority R-tree, or PR-tree, which is the first R-tree variant that always answers a window query using O (( N / B ) 1−1/ d + T / B ) I/Os ...

SPRIT: Identifying horizontal gene transfer in rooted phylogenetic trees

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2010
Background Phylogenetic trees based on sequences from a set of taxa can be incongruent due to horizontal gene transfer (HGT). By identifying the HGT events, we can reconcile the gene trees and derive a taxon tree that adequately represents the species ...

PhySortR: a fast, flexible tool for sorting phylogenetic trees in R [PDF]

PeerJ, 2016
A frequent bottleneck in interpreting phylogenomic output is the need to screen often thousands of trees for features of interest, particularly robust clades of specific taxa, as evidence of monophyletic relationship and/or reticulated evolution. Here we

An Integration of Linear Model and ‘Random Forest’ Techniques for Prediction of Norway Spruce Vitality: A Case Study of the Hemiboreal Forest, Latvia

Remote Sensing, 2022
The increasing extreme weather and climate events have a significant impact on the resistance and resilience of Norway spruce trees. The responses and adaptation of individual trees to certain factors can be assessed through the tree breeding programmes.
