متن کاملMathematics Is Biology's Next Microscope, Only Better; Biology Is Mathematics' Next Physics, Only Better
A lthough mathematics has long been intertwined with the biological sciences, an explosive synergy between biology and mathematics seems poised to enrich and extend both fi elds greatly in the Biology will increasingly stimulate the creation of qualitatively new realms of mathematics. Why? In biology, ensemble properties emerge at each level of organization from the interactions of heterogeneou...
متن کاملUnite research with what citizens do for fun: "recreational monitoring" of marine biodiversity.
Institutes often lack funds and manpower to perform large-scale biodiversity monitoring. Citizens can be involved, contributing to the collection of data, thus decreasing costs. Underwater research requires specialist skills and SCUBA certification, and it can be difficult to involve volunteers. The aim of this study was to involve large numbers of recreational divers in marine biodiversity mon...
