Environmental and Anthropogenic Predictors Influence the Diversity of Nonflying Mammals in a Native Savanna Landscape of Northern South America by Federico Mosquera-Guerra, Nathalia Moreno-Niño, Sebastian Barreto, Tania Marisol González-Delgado, Dolors Armenteras-Pascual

“…The mammals best represented by the average relative abundance index (RAI) were Tayassu pecari (RAI = 0.83, n = 2.936) and Cuniculus paca (RAI = 0.33, n = 1.491), and the omnivore group was the most diverse trophic guild. The best-fitting generalized additive model for location, scale, and shape (GAMLSS) (GAIC = 1305.3) indicated that the diversity of the mammal species detected at camera trap stations was influenced by environmental predictors, including (a) distance to the burned area (burned = p>3.6×10−9) and (b) distance to human infrastructure (built-up = p>5.05×10−7). …”

Mathematical simulation of railway track and trackside contamination with silt by V. M. Belkov, M. A. Zhuravlyova

“…Simulation of a flow around a complex shape object in turbulent conditions relates to the most difficult tasks in fluid dynamics. To describe the turbulent motions in layered gaseous environment we normally use the instruments common for the theory of fluctuations and the theory of mass transfer - like the second Fick’s equation, from which we can find the required functions of the concentration of harmful substances, depending on the vertical Z and the horizontal X coordinates. …”
