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: 10.1017/s0031182024000969
Abstract: Abstract Abstract We applied a novel framework based on network theory and a concept of modularity that estimates congruence between trait-based ( = functional) co-occurrence networks, thus allowing the inference of co-occurrence patterns and the… 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.

DOI: 10.1039/d4sm00804a
Abstract: The properties of tissue interfaces - between separate populations of cells, or between a group of cells and its environment - has attracted intense theoretical, computational, and experimental study. Recent work on shape-based models inspired… read more here.

DOI: 10.1039/d4sm00988f
Abstract: The mechanical properties of the mammalian cell regulate many cellular functions and are largely dictated by the cytoskeleton, a composite network of protein filaments, including actin, microtubules, and intermediate filaments. Interactions between these distinct filaments… read more here.

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: 10.1063/5.0287797
Abstract: Modeling plant communities as continuous media with a priori drag coefficients is a widely adopted approach in numerical simulations. However, the selection of appropriate drag coefficients across varying scales of plant communities remains a significant… read more here.

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2425200122
Abstract: Significance Thermally induced ripples are intrinsic features of ultrathin sheets, including biological membranes and two-dimensional materials. Despite decades of research, their influence on elasticity remains debated, with predictions varying between strongly scale-dependent and scale-independent elastic… read more here.
