Global Soil Fauna Metacommunity Patterns: The Roles of Spatial Extent and Environmental Heterogeneity

open access: yesDiversity
A central debate in metacommunity theory concerns how the relative importance of ecological processes varies with spatial scale. We addressed this by integrating global soil fauna metacommunity datasets to analyze the effects of spatial extent (the ...

Soft motions encoded by the fold and mediated by conserved hinge sites drive V‐ATPase allosteric machinery and autoinhibition

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Vacuolar H+‐ATPase (V‐ATPase) is a multisubunit rotary proton pump that acidifies intracellular compartments. Using elastic network models, we identified conserved hinge residues that govern its large‐scale functional motions. We show that intrinsically encoded ‘soft modes’ drive critical functional transitions, including rotary catalysis and ...

Spatial clustering method for geographic data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
In the process of visualizing quantitative spatial data, it is necessary to classify attribute values into some class divisions. In a previous paper, the author proposed a classification method for minimizing the loss of information contained in ...

The modifiable areal unit phenomenon: an investigation into the scale effect using UK census data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The Modifiable Areal Unit Phenomenon (MAUP) has traditionally been regarded as a problem in the analysis of spatial data organised in areal units. However, the approach adopted here is that the MAUP provides an opportunity to gain information about the ...

A Review of Progress in Heat Health Risk Assessment Across Multiple Spatial Scales

open access: yesBuildings
With global warming and the increasing frequency of extreme heat events, heat health risk assessment (HHRA) has become a critical topic in climate change studies.

Comparing the paths of Hedgehog release in artificial and natural settings

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Hh morphogens require solubilization factors to overcome their tight association with the plasma membrane and signal to distant cells, but the precise functions of these factors are controversial. Here, we use published in vivo observations as the most relevant evidence to test their suggested functions and discuss contradictions and gaps between in ...

The interference effect of different scale on visual spatial attention

open access: yes, 2004
The dynamic brain mechanisms on the visual spatial attention affected by different scale interference were investigated by with “precue-target” visual search paradigm of event-related potentials (ERPs) in normal youth subjects.

Disentangling the effect of the spatial scale and species spatial pattern on the abundance–suitability relationship

open access: yes
Knowledge about species abundance across broad spatial areas is crucial for unraveling ecological processes. Yet, abundance estimation often demands extensive sampling effort associated with logistical challenges.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...
