A NUMERICAL DESCENT METHOD FOR AN INVERSE PROBLEM OF A SCALAR CONSERVATION LAW MODELLING SEDIMENTATION
(SPRINGER, 2006)
This contribution presents a numerical descent method for the identification of parameters in the flux function of a scalar nonlinear conservation law when the solution at a fixed time is known. This problem occurs in a ...
New less conservative methods of robust controllers design using state derivative feedback
(2018-01-01)
This paper proposes new less conservative methods for the design of robust state derivative feedback controllers in order to provide stability and improved dynamic performance to uncertain linear time invariant (LTI) ...
Modelled distributions and conservation status of the wild relatives of chile peppers ( Capsicum L.)
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2019-11)
Aim: To fill critical knowledge gaps with regard to the distributions and conservation status of the wild relatives of chile peppers (Capsicum L.).Location: The study covered the potential native ranges of currently ...
Soil carbon is a useful surrogate for conservation planning in developing nations
(Nature Publishing Group, 2019-03)
Defining the optimal placement of areas for biodiversity conservation in developing nations remains a significant challenge. Our best methods for spatially targeting potential locations for biodiversity conservation rely ...
Convergence of an adaptive Kačanov FEM for quasi-linear problems
(Elsevier Science, 2011-04)
We design an adaptive finite element method to approximate the solutions of quasi-linear elliptic problems. The algorithm is based on a Kačanov iteration and a mesh adaptation step is performed after each linear solve. The ...
Vegetative Propagation Method for Ex situ Conservation of Sida ramoniana Krapov. (Malvaceae) : an Endemic Species with Medicinal Potential in Danger of Extinction
(Friends Science Publishers, 2018-01-01)
Sida ramoniana is an endemic shrub of the Upper Parana Atlantic Forest with potential medicinal properties. Moreover, it is endangered due to the low frequency of individuals found in natural populations and its low seed ...

Best of both worlds: Combining ecological and social research to inform conservation decisions in a Neotropical biodiversity hotspot
(2022-04-01)
Conservation decision is a challenging and risky task when it aims at prioritizing species or protected areas (PAs) to prevent extinction while ensuring fair treatment of all stakeholders. Better conservation decisions are ...
