An updated understanding of Texas bumble bee (Hymenoptera: Apidae) species presence and potential distributions in Texas, USA [PDF]
PeerJ, 2017 Texas is the second largest state in the United States of America, and the largest state in the contiguous USA at nearly 700,000 sq. km. Several Texas bumble bee species have shown evidence of declines in portions of their continental ranges, and ...

Incorporating spatial correlations into multispecies mean-field models [PDF]
, 2013 In biology, we frequently observe different species existing within the same environment. For example, there are many cell types in a tumour, or different animal species may occupy a given habitat.

Modeling the effect of climate change to the potential invasion range of Piper aduncum Linnaeus [PDF]
Global Journal of Environmental Science and Management, 2018 The potential effect of invasive plant species on biodiversity is one of most important subject of inquiry at present. In many parts of the world, the alarming spread of these plants has been documented.

Meta-heuristic algorithms in car engine design: a literature survey [PDF]
, 2015 Meta-heuristic algorithms are often inspired by natural phenomena, including the evolution of species in Darwinian natural selection theory, ant behaviors in biology, flock behaviors of some birds, and annealing in metallurgy.

A multi-scale distribution model for non-equilibrium populations suggests resource limitation in an endangered rodent. [PDF]
, 2014 Species distributions are known to be limited by biotic and abiotic factors at multiple temporal and spatial scales. Species distribution models, however, frequently assume a population at equilibrium in both time and space.
