Simple Patchy-Based Simulators Used to Explore Pondscape Systematic Dynamics
Thousands of farm ponds disappeared on the tableland in Taoyuan County, Taiwan since 1920s. The number of farm ponds that have disappeared is 1,895 (37%), 2,667 ponds remain (52%), and only 537 (11%) new ponds were created within a 757 km(2) area in Taoyuan, Taiwan between 1926 and 1960. In this study, a geographic information system (GIS) and logistic stepwise regression model were used to det...
متن کاملAre Equipment Simulators Effective When Used for Technology-based Training
Formal technology-based training can be costly for all concerned. Efficient and effective alternatives to face-to-face training need to be found. One option is to use equipment simulators before undertaking formal training so that hands-on training can be conducted at a more advanced level and thereby increase efficiency. Case studies using Global Positioning System (GPS) simulations were condu...
متن کاملUsing Visualizations to Explore Network Dynamics
Network analysis has become a popular tool to examine data from online social networks to politics to ecological systems. As more computing power has become available, new technology-driven methods and tools are being developed that can support larger and richer network data, including dynamic network analysis. This timely merger of abundant data and cutting edge techniques affords researchers ...
متن کاملPlant Population Dynamics in a Patchy System*
Patchiness has been increasingly recognized by ecologists as a ubiquitous phenomenon in nature. Therefore, substantial research has been directed at modeling the dynamics of metapopulations in patchy habitat settings (e.g., den Boer, 1968; Levins, 1969, 1970; Levins and Culver, 1971; Roff, 1974a,b; Levin, 1976b, 1978; Hastings, 1982, 1991; Hanski, 1983, 1985, 1991; Fahrig and Merriam, 1985; DeA...
متن کاملSimple Laser-Induced Fluorescence Setup to Explore Molecular Spectroscopy
We will demonstrate a relatively simple, affordable and highly visual experiment to explore molecular spectroscopy by measuring the laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) spectrum of the iodine molecules at room temperature. Iodine is a uniquely suited molecule for LIF measurements since it conveniently absorbs about 20,000 lines in the 490to 650-nm visible region of the spectrum and serves excellent...
