River Ecosystem Response to Prescribed Vegetation Burning on Blanket peatland
Catchment-scale land-use change is recognised as a major threat to aquatic biodiversity and ecosystem functioning globally. In the UK uplands rotational vegetation burning is practised widely to boost production of recreational game birds, and while some recent studies have suggested burning can alter river water quality there has been minimal attention paid to effects on aquatic biota. We stud...
متن کاملUsing Trust Management to Support MicroPayments
This paper illustrates how hash-chain based micropayment schemes can be codified within the KeyNote Trust Management system. We describe an application of this scheme to the secure WebCom system, a distributed computation architecture. This supports micropayments made by servers to clients for computations performed and, payments by clients to servers for services.
متن کاملPalaeoecology: Methods
Paleoecology is based on the documentation of occurrences and abundances of taxa across time and space. Although methodologically similar to the techniques of neontological ecologists, the discipline is distinct in its integration of a deeper time axis into our understanding of the processes shaping the earth’s ecological patterns. Taphonomy is the study of the processes by which organic remain...
متن کاملDetection and Prediction of Peatland Cover Changes Using Support Vector Machine and Markov Chain Model
Detection and prediction of peatland cover changes should be conducted due to high rate deforestation in Indonesia. In this work we applied Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Markov Chain Model on multitemporal satellite data to generate the correspondings detection and prediction. The study area is located in the Rokan Hilir district, Riau Province. SVM classification technique used to extract i...
متن کاملMarkov Blanket Feature Selection for Support Vector Machines
Based on Information Theory, optimal feature selection should be carried out by searching Markov blankets. In this paper, we formally analyze the current Markov blanket discovery approach for support vector machines and propose to discover Markov blankets by performing a fast heuristic Bayesian network structure learning. We give a sufficient condition that our approach will improve the perform...
