Widespread admixture blurs population structure and confounds Lake Trout (Salvelinus namaycush) conservation even in the genomic era by Thaïs A. Bernos, Julie Gibelli, Sozos Michaelides, Hari Won, Hyung-Bae Jeon, Kia Marin, David A. Boguski, Muhammad Yamin Janjua, Colin P. Gallagher, Kimberly L. Howland, Dylan J. Fraser

“…However, admixture was widespread (60% of the fish) and population structure was shallow (average F ST = 0.022). These findings highlight that, even in the era of whole genome sequencing, identifying discrete management units to implement conservation efforts and policy can remain challenging in systems where gene flow among genetically and ecologically distinct populations is ubiquitous. …”

Application of Analytic Hierarchy Process and Structural Equation Modeling for Supporting the Decision-Making of Shuttering Preference in Construction Projects by Vu Hong Son Pham, Thuy Dau, Le Tran

“…This study is motivated by using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) to assess shuttering alternatives based on the identified evaluation criteria from the prior factor analysis stage. In addition, the Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) approach is employed to discover underlying relations between the latent factors of the model base on using a combination of statistical data and qualitative causal assumptions. …”
