Range shifts and non-monotonic clines in studies of Bergmann’s rule as applied to climate change

Abstract Bergmann’s rule states that organisms should be smaller in warmer climates. This traditionally implied warmer latitudes, but also applies to warmer eras, as forming due to climate change. Integrating spatial and temporal ecology (chronoecogeography) can help us understand and predict how different species respond to environmental changes over time. However, study results can be misinterpreted if researchers do not take steps in the data collection or analysis stages to account for range shifting or non-monotonic patterns. Multiple variables can cause an organism’s geographic and recent temporal size clines to differ significantly, as seen in a review in this article, and these cannot easily be modeled. Range shifting can affect Bergmann’s rule modeling, especially regarding effects from climate change, and this article suggests methods to account for this when incorporating the dimension of time into climate change-focused ecogeographic research.

Mobile laser scanning as reference for estimation of stem attributes from airborne laser scanning

The acquisition of high-quality reference data is essential for effectively modelling forest attributes. Incorporating close-range Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) systems into the reference data collection stage of remote sensing-based forest inventories can not only increase data collection efficiency but also increase the number of attributes measured with high quality. Therefore, we propose a model-based forest inventory method that uses reference data collected by a car-mounted mobile laser scanning (MLS) system along boreal forest roads. This approach is used for the estimation of diameter at breast height (DBH) and stem volume at the individual tree-level from airborne laser scanning (ALS) data. In addition, we compare the estimates obtained using the proposed method with the ones derived from reference data collected by traditional field inventory of 265 field plots systematically distributed over the study area. The accuracy of the estimates remained comparable regardless of the reference dataset used for estimation of DBH and stem volume. When using the field inventory dataset for model training, the root mean square error (RMSE) of DBH estimates were 4.06 cm (18.8 %) for Norway spruce trees, 6.3 cm (29.6 %) for Scots pine and 8.61 cm (55.9 %) for deciduous trees. Similarly, when evaluating predictions based on the MLS dataset as reference, RMSEs were equal to 3.97 cm (18.4 %) for Norway spruce, 6.12 cm (28.8 %) for Scots pine, and 8.98 cm (58.3 %) for deciduous trees. In general, biases were below 1 cm for most species classes, with the exception of deciduous trees. The accuracy of stem volume also had RMSEs varying across different tree species. For the estimates based on traditional field inventory, the RMSEs were 0.176 m3 (38.8 %) for Norway spruce, 0.228 m3 (52.4 %) for Scots pine and 0.246 m3 (158 %) for deciduous trees. When using the MLS dataset as a reference, the RMSEs were equal to 0.176 m3 (38.8 %), 0.228 m3 (52.4 %), and 0.246 m3 (158 %) for Norway spruce, Scots pine, and deciduous trees, respectively. Car-mounted MLS demonstrated its potential as an efficient alternative for collecting reference data in remote sensing-based forest inventories, which could complement traditional methods.

Conducting mixed methods research with women in a forensic mental health setting: A reflexive account from a nurse as researcher.

To describe a reflexive account of a mental health nurse as researcher undertaking a mixed methods study as part of a doctoral degree, with women in a secure forensic hospital. A discursive paper that draws upon the primary author's experience of dual roles as a mental health nurse and a novice researcher, and relevant literature pertaining to positionality and reflexivity in the context of conducting mixed methods research. A mixed methods study was conducted within a secure forensic hospital in Australia, to identify factors associated with the frequency and duration of seclusion for women and, to explore their experiences of seclusion. Notes and a reflective diary were used to demonstrate the reflexive approach and strategies used throughout the study design and data collection stages of the research. Women in the secure forensic hospital setting often have complex histories and experiences and are considered a vulnerable group, which can add additional challenges when undertaking research with this population. As a doctoral student with clinical experience in mental health undertaking research in the forensic hospital setting with women, positionality and the connection with reflexivity requires exploration to understand self and the influence on research. This understanding along with identified strategies to enhance reflexivity, supports the management of the dual nurse as researcher roles to enhance all stages of the research process. Doctoral nursing candidates undertaking clinical research in their area of clinical practice and at the location of previous employment, may experience challenges in relation to identity and the dichotomy of roles. Further challenges can be posed when research involves complex populations and/or controversial practices. Support to balance role conflict and maintain reflexivity is critical to understanding the role of self in research and to enhance credibility. Women are a complex, yet minority population in forensic mental health settings, however the numbers of women being admitted to services is increasing. Future research may consider the use of the strategies explored here to enhance the reflexive process, and support future researchers in this field to conduct research that aims to support an often-misheard population to better support health outcomes. There was no patient or public contribution to this paper, however the study in which this paper is based on, is grounded in the experience of patients (women).

Higher education in the era of artificial intelligence: academic freedom as a case study

Higher education is crucial for the development of states and societies and improving the overall quality of life. However, entry into higher education is often influenced by factors beyond qualifications, and individuals in the field face suppression from the controlling parties. These challenges undermine the value of education and the integrity of democratic processes like elections. In this paper, we study academic freedom in Lebanon and propose a technique that dynamically extracts the factors that might affect academic freedom. This technique comprises multiple stages: data collection, data preprocessing, static extraction of factors, dynamic extraction of factors, and evaluation. In the data collection stage, data was obtained from 254 participants through a questionnaire that discusses various facets of academic freedom. The preprocessing stage enhances data quality through cleaning, normalizing, and transforming. For static extraction, factors impacting academic freedom are identified using naive K-means clustering. In dynamic extraction, the Apriori algorithm identifies key metrics. Finally, a customized K-means algorithm clusters data based on a specific metric. This algorithm was applied on both, the statically and dynamically extracted metrics, and comparison was done based on the accuracy of the resultant clustering. This comparison demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed technique in identifying and analyzing factors impacting academic freedom.

METHODOLOGY FOR DEVELOPING INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY FOR SECURITY-ORIENTED MANAGEMENT OF SOCIO-ECONOMIC SYSTEMS BASED ON FUZZY LOGIC

In today's environment, socio-economic systems face increasingly complex challenges associated with high levels of uncertainty, risks, and rapid changes in the external environment. This necessitates the development of effective management methods that can ensure the reliability and flexibility of decision-making. The research is aimed at creating a methodology for the development and application of information technology for security-oriented management based on the principles of fuzzy logic. Fuzzy logic, based on the theory of fuzzy sets developed by Lotfi Zadeh, is a powerful tool for working with incomplete and fuzzy data, allowing to model complex systems and processes where traditional approaches may be ineffective. The paper discusses the peculiarities of using fuzzy logic to create models that take into account possible risks and facilitate informed decision-making even with limited information. The proposed methodology allows to integrate various data sources, process them in real time and provide recommendations for risk management and security of socio-economic systems. The study also describes the structure of the technology, which includes the stages of data collection, fuzzification, fuzzy inference, defuzzification, and decision support. Systems based on fuzzy logic demonstrate high adaptability, resilience to change, and the ability to operate in the face of unpredictable changes. The results of the study confirm that the proposed information technology can be applied in various industries, such as transportation, healthcare, and industry, to improve the safety and efficiency of management decisions. The use of the proposed methodology helps to reduce risks, improve the quality of management and adaptability to changes in external conditions, which are key requirements in modern management.
