Estimating spatiotemporal patterns of deaths by COVID-19 outbreak on a global scale by Fernanda Valente, Marcio Poletti Laurini

“…We found compelling evidence that spatiotemporal models are more accurate than univariate models to estimate the patterns of the occurrence of deaths. Based on the measures of dispersion of the models’ prediction in relation to observed deaths, it is possible to note that the models with spatial component are significantly superior to the univariate model.Conclusion The findings suggested that the spatial dynamics have an important role in the COVID-19 epidemic process since the results provided evidence that spatiotemporal models are more accurate to estimate the general patterns of the occurrence of deaths related to COVID-19.…”

Analyzing spatiotemporal congestion pattern on urban roads based on taxi GPS data by Kaisheng Zhang, Daniel (Jian) Sun, Suwan Shen, Yi Zhu

“…Fuzzy C-means clustering was used to conduct an exhaustive study on 24-hour congestion pattern of road segments in urban area, so that the spatial autoregressive moving average model (SARMA) was introduced to analyze the output from the clustering analysis to establish the relationship between built environment and the 24-hour congestion pattern. …”

Beta Diversity Patterns and Drivers of Macroinvertebrate Communities in Major Rivers of Ningxia, China by Qiangqiang Yang, Zeyu Wei, Xiaocong Qiu, Zengfeng Zhao

“…The Sørensen index was determined to be more appropriate for this investigation, and the total beta diversity of the communities was relatively high (β_SOR ≥ 0.82), with no identifiable nested spatial patterns detected. Except in the YRIA, environmental variability contributed more significantly to the variance in beta diversity than spatial factors, and deterministic mechanisms dominated the community assembly of benthic macroinvertebrates across all three months. …”

Temporal control of self‐organized pattern formation without morphogen gradients in bacteria by Stephen Payne, Bochong Li, Yangxiaolu Cao, David Schaeffer, Marc D Ryser, Lingchong You

“…Abstract Diverse mechanisms have been proposed to explain biological pattern formation. Regardless of their specific molecular interactions, the majority of these mechanisms require morphogen gradients as the spatial cue, which are either predefined or generated as a part of the patterning process. …”
