Novel functional drainage density for Blue Carbon Ecotones by Jiaqi Zhang, Matteo Convertino

“…FDD is a critical predictor of BCE shifts, where high FDD supports the one single BCE within their climate niche versus enhancing diversity. Positive functional feedback for co-occurring BCEs suggest that their co-occurrence is highly beneficial for co-dependent habitats such as oyster reefs, and ecosystem-scale restoration projects.The ocean-land ecotone, as much as riparian areas, is home to the vast majority of people and is the most prone to critical risks and opportunities. …”

Spline coalescence hidden variable fractal interpolation functions by A. K. B. Chand, G. P. Kapoor

“…This paper generalizes the classical spline using a new construction of spline coalescence hidden variable fractal interpolation function (CHFIF). The derivative of a spline CHFIF is a typical fractal function that is self-affine or non-self-affine depending on the parameters of a nondiagonal iterated function system. …”

Distributed dynamic mapping scheme based on cost function by Guo-dong GE, Yun-fei GUO, Ju-long LAN, Cai-xia LIU

“…For supporting efficient host mobility and mapping identifiers onto locators,a distributed dynamic mobility mapping scheme based on cost function was proposed.In the scheme,depending on the mobility pattern and communication feature,the communication of mobile node is divided into three communication models,namely,moving update model,balanced transmission model and resolving query model.In order to minimize the total resolving cost,three mapping approach are proposed based on distributed multicast,consistent hash functions and proactive sharing respectively in the mobile domain.For each mapping approach,corresponding registration update,resolution query and packet delivery strategies are designed.Simulation results show that the scheme can achieve the minimum resolving cost,and can have low resolve latency and good adaptability for network topology dynamic changing.…”

FUNCTIONAL IMPAIRMENTS OF GASTROINTESTINAL MOTILITY AND GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT MICROBIOTA by A.V. Malkoch, S.V. Bel'mer, M.D. Ardatskaya

“…Gastrointestinal tract microbiota significantly contributes to the local regulation of motility both by forming fecal masses and secreting various metabolites, particularly short chain fatty acids whose composition and number depends on the nutritive factors of microbiota. For normal functioning and metabolism, saprophitic microbiota needs a significant number of undigestible carbohydrates, i.e. prebiotics. …”
