DOI: 10.1002/ece3.6675
Abstract: Abstract Land management is known to have consequences for biodiversity; however, our synthetic understanding of its effects is limited due to highly variable results across studies, which vary in the focal taxa and spatial grain… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9286
Abstract: Abstract Identifying the relative importance of different mechanisms responsible for the emergence and maintenance of phenotypic diversity can be challenging, as multiple selective pressures and stochastic events are involved in these processes. Therefore, testing how… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.mechrescom.2019.103461
Abstract: Abstract The aim of the present work is to investigate the mechanical behaviour of orthotropic masonry subjected to localised loads in the context of both ‘implicit’/‘weak’ and ‘explicit’/‘strong’ non-local continuum models. To look for possible… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-017-08844-8
Abstract: Ecological processes are generally scale-dependent and there is little consensus about the relative importance of deterministic versus stochastic processes in driving patterns of biological diversity. We investigated how the relationship between functional dispersion and environmental… read more here.

Scale dependence of fractal dimension in deterministic and stochastic Lorenz-63 systems.
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Chaos"
DOI: 10.1063/5.0106053
Abstract: Many natural systems show emergent phenomena at different scales, leading to scaling regimes with signatures of deterministic chaos at large scales and an apparently random behavior at small scales. These features are usually investigated quantitatively… read more here.

DOI: 10.1088/1748-9326/ac25bb
Abstract: Extreme heat continues to be a pressing challenge of the changing climate. The impacts of extreme heat manifest on two different spatio-temporal scales: (1) episodic continent-wide heatwaves (HWs) and (2) the city-scale urban heat island… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physrevd.95.023505
Abstract: We forecast the future constraints on scale-dependent parametrizations of galaxy bias and their impact on the estimate of cosmological parameters from the power spectrum of galaxies measured in a spectroscopic redshift survey. For the latter… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physreve.103.042408
Abstract: We investigate the influence of nonlocal couplings on the torsional and bending elasticities of DNA. Such couplings have been observed in the past by several simulation studies. Here, we use a description of DNA conformations… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/oik.05072
Abstract: In spatially heterogeneous environments, coexistence between competing species can be facilitated by spatially mediated tradeoffs. In this paper we develop a mechanistic model to investigate under which circumstances interspecific differences in the tradeoff between foraging… read more here.
