Tropical Linear Spaces and Tropical Convexity [PDF]

open access: yesThe Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2015
In classical geometry, a linear space is a space that is closed under linear combinations. In tropical geometry, it has long been a consensus that tropical varieties defined by valuated matroids are the tropical analogue of linear spaces. It is not difficult to see that each such space is tropically convex, i.e.

Redfield Ratios in Inland Waters: Higher Biological Control of C:N:P Ratios in Tropical Semi-arid High Water Residence Time Lakes

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2017
The canonical Redfield C:N:P ratio for algal biomass is often not achieved in inland waters due to higher C and N content and more variability when compared to the oceans. This has been attributed to much lower residence times and higher contributions of

Population response to connectivity restoration of high elevation tropical stream reaches in Hawai'i

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, 2022
Tropical island streams are heavily impacted by water withdrawals to the detriment of native ecosystems. Freshwater fauna in the tropics often exhibit diadromous life‐history strategies, requiring hydrologic connectivity between upstream and nearshore ...

Application of eDNA Metabarcoding for Detecting Anura on a Tropical Island

open access: yesDiversity, 2021
As anuran biodiversity quickly declines, it is important to understand local patterns of anuran occurrence. However, the limitations of traditional sampling methods make anuran biodiversity surveys inadequate.
