We calculate the Shannon entropy of a time series by using the probability density functions of the characteristic sizes of the long-range correlated clusters introduced in [A. Carbone, G. Castelli, H.E. Stanley, Phys. Rev. E 69 (2004) 026105]. We define three different measures of the entropy related, respectively, to the length, the duration and the area of the clusters. For all the three cas...

Let X be a locally finite tree, and let G = Aut(X). Then G is a locally compact group. In analogy with Lie groups, Bass and Lubotzky conjectured that G contains lattices, that is, discrete subgroups whose quotient carries a finite invariant measure. Bass and Kulkarni showed that G contains uniform lattices if and only if G is unimodular and G\X is finite. We describe the necessary and sufficien...

Incorporation of marine-derived nutrients (MDN) into freshwater food webs of southeastern Alaska was studied by measuring the natural abundance of nitrogen and carbon stable isotopes in biota from artificial and natural streams. Biofilm, aquatic macroinvertebrates (detritivores, shredders, and predators), and fish (coho salmon, Oncorhynchus kisutch, and cutthroat trout, Oncorhynchus clarki) wer...

We measured soil CO, evolution rates with (S,) and without (S,,) the forest floor litter and root respiration monthly in 11-year-old loblolly pine (Pinus tueda L.) plantations during the fourth year of fertilization and irrigation treatments. Values of Srr ranged from less than 1 * pmol.ms -’ during the winter to greater than 5 pmol.m-‘s-l in late spring. Average Srr was significantly greater i...

Boreal ecosystems contain a substantial fraction of the earth’s soil carbon stores and are prone to frequent and severe wildfires. In this study, we examine changes in element and organic matter stocks due to a 1999 wildfire in Alaska. One year after the wildfire, burned soils contained between 1071 and 1420 g/m2 less carbon than unburned soils. Burned soils had lower nitrogen than unburned soi...
