Microclimatic edge effects in a fragmented forest: disentangling the drivers of ecological processes in plant-leafminer-parasitoid food webs
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2021-10)
In forest fragments, microclimatic conditions differ between interior andforest edges and also vary with geographical orientation. These microclimatic variationscould affect plant-insect food webs and the ecological processes ...
Polarity effects in unsupported polar nanoribbons
(American Physical Society, 2013-05)
We analyze the characteristics of polarity in unsupported nanoribbons with zigzag edges, by a combination of analytic models, semiempirical Hartree-Fock simulations, and first-principles approach. We consider two materials ...
Edge effects modify the growth dynamics and climate sensitivity of Araucaria Angustifloia trees
(TREE-RING SOC, 2020)
Edge effects are a major cause of natural dynamics of fragmented forests; however, studies that evaluate edge effects during the lifetime of trees are relatively rare. Through a long-term perspective of tree growth, ...
3D edge detection based on Boolean functions and local operators
(World ScientificSingapore, 2015)
Edge detection is one of the most commonly used operations in image processing and computer vision areas. Edges correspond to the boundaries between regions in an image, which are useful for object segmentation and recognition ...
Edge Enhancement Investigations by Means of Experiments and Simulations
(Elsevier, 2017-06)
Standard neutron imaging procedures are based on the “shadow” of the transmitted radiation, attenuated by the sample material. Under certain conditions significant deviations from pure transmission can be found in the form ...
The Canny detector with edge region focusing using an anisotropic diffusion process
(2006-12-01)
This paper proposes a methodology for edge detection in digital images using the Canny detector, but associated with a priori edge structure focusing by a nonlinear anisotropic diffusion via the partial differential equation ...

Area and edge effects on leaf-litter decomposition in a fragmented subtropical dry forest
(Elsevier Masson, 2014-10)
South American subtropical dry forests are highly threatened by fragmentation. Despite considerable research efforts aimed at predicting ecosystem alterations due to this driver of global change, we still need to deal with ...
Internet of Things Based Smart Grids Supported by Intelligent Edge Computing
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2019)
In this paper, an edge computing system for IoT-based (Internet of Things) smart grids is proposed to overcome the drawbacks in the current cloud computing paradigm in power systems, where many problems have yet to be ...
