Currently, there are several hypotheses surrounding the disappearance of Neanderthals. While they all have at least some ...
Scientists have developed a novel way to model whether the populations of more than 500 bird species are increasing or decreasing. The method solves a nagging statistical problem by accounting for ...
"Using optimal control techniques in a model with realistic hydrology features, we illustrated how to adjust the flow rate in a river to keep an invasive species from moving upstream." Mathematical ...
Community-level models (CLMs) aim to improve species distribution modeling (SDM) methods by attempting to explicitly incorporate the influences of interacting species. However, the ability of CLMs to ...
In a recent study, scientists from the department Living Matter Physics at MPI-DS developed a model describing communication pathways in bacterial populations. Bacteria show an overall organizational ...
For the first time, researchers have mapped the population structure of silky sharks (Carcharhinus falciformis) in the Eastern Pacific Ocean, offering new insights that could guide future conservation ...
