In ON parasol cells, fixations with high spatial contrast led to stronger responses that were also more correlated than for fixations with comparable light intensity but low spatial contrast (Fig.2a,b). These effects also existed in OFF parasol and ON midget cells, albeit to a lesser degree, ...
The International Conference of ISARS is themed as Relations, connections, cosmologies: shamanism and spirit possession under the ethnographic lens and it intends to go back to ontological basics in relation... ConferenceScience & ResearchEducation & Training ...
Thus, the temporal frequency-response functions of six of the eight parallel ON bipolar pathways overlap with two opposing outliers (BC5t and XBC). Both outliers are localized in the upper block, generating diversity in temporal processing within this block, whereas temporal processing is uniform in...
Even our 3D-printed samaras, which are effectively identical morphologically, have a significant variability in their dynamic behavior both in still air in the laboratory (Figure 3) and in the field (Figure 4 and Figure 6). We hypothesize that this diversity of behaviors is related to the ...
In contrast, adding trees to native grasslands may increase carbon sequestration at the expense of native grassland diversity and thus would not qualify as an NCS38. Principle 2.2: NCS sustain food production NCS should sustain food production. Climate solutions will not be durable unless food ...
However, the complexity and diversity of image features in natural scenes15 pose an additional challenge for characterizing the neural codes. Earlier studies had to resort to making hypotheses on the visual features that neurons care about, and utilized simplified parametric artificial stimuli to study...
This introduces spatial diversity. To date, researchers have adopted and built on an array of pre-existing landscape ecology methods and tools to describe dynamic landscape patterns and processes. Such methods could feed into the Natural Capital approach, i.e., land change modelling, spatiotemporal...

Leaving aside their categorical and parametric diversity and differences in scale, the central claim of all such models involves a simple assertion. Risk is a function of (a) exposure to a hazard, (b) susceptibility or sensitivity to harm or loss, (c) degree of personal or social...
Land-use change and agricultural intensification concurrently impact natural enemy (e.g., parasitoid) communities and their associated ecosystem services (ESs), i.e., biological pest control. However, the extent to which (on-farm) parasitoid diversity an
