How Rich is Too Rich? Measuring the Riches Line [PDF]

open access: yesSocial Indicators Research, 2020
AbstractIs it possible to identify a ‘riches line’, distinguishing the ‘rich’ from the ‘super-rich’? Recent work in political philosophy suggests that this istheoreticallypossible. This study examines for the first time theempiricalplausibility of a riches line, based on novel data collected from a representative sample of the Dutch population.

A Richness that Cures [PDF]

open access: yesNeuron, 2007
A study in Nature by Fischer et al. shows that environmental enrichment or increasing histone acetylation rescue the ability to form new memories and re-establish access to remote memories even in the presence of brain degeneration. Chromatin remodeling may be the final gate environmental enrichment opens to enhance plasticity and represents a ...

Species richness-environment relationships of European arthropods at two spatial grains: habitats and countries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We study how species richness of arthropods relates to theories concerning net primary productivity, ambient energy, water-energy dynamics and spatial environmental heterogeneity.

An Embarrassment of Riches [PDF]

open access: yesPediatrics, 2014
I applaud the efforts of Holmes et al ( Pediatrics 2014;133:766–768) to provide guidance to clinicians asked to write narrative evaluations of medical students. As the authors correctly point out, thoughtful comments “provide meaningful feedback to the student about performance, and formulate strong statements for the Medical Student Performance ...

Palindromic richness

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Combinatorics, 2009
In this paper, we study combinatorial and structural properties of a new class of finite and infinite words that are 'rich' in palindromes in the utmost sense. A characteristic property of so-called "rich words" is that all complete returns to any palindromic factor are themselves palindromes.

Comparative tests of ectoparasite species richness in seabirds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Background: The diversity of parasites attacking a host varies substantially among different host species. Understanding the factors that explain these patterns of parasite diversity is critical to identifying the ecological principles underlying ...

Estimating the Richness of a Population When the Maximum Number of Classes Is Fixed: A Nonparametric Solution to an Archaeological Problem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background: Estimating assemblage species or class richness from samples remains a challenging, but essential, goal. Though a variety of statistical tools for estimating species or class richness have been developed, they are all singly-bounded: assuming

Mapping the species richness and composition of tropical forests from remotely sensed data with neural networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The understanding and management of biodiversity is often limited by a lack of data. Remote sensing has considerable potential as a source of data on biodiversity at spatial and temporal scales appropriate for biodiversity management.

Species composition and diversity of tree species along an altitudinal gradient in Sewa catchment of north-western Himalayas, Jammu and Kashmir, India

open access: yesEnvironment Conservation Journal, 2012
Species diversity along altitudinal and latitudinal gradient differs in different tree layers at different scales. Thirteen community groups characterized by different dominants in the tree layer were encountered within an altitudinal range of 580 m asl
