Multinational conservation initiatives that prioritize investment across a region invariably navigate trade-offs among multiple objectives. It seems logical to focus where several objectives can be achieved efficiently, but such multi-objective hotspots may be ecologically inappropriate, or politically inequitable. Here we devise a framework to facilitate a regionally cohesive set of marine-pro...

consequences of environmental issues for have significantly affected on human life aspect, such as livelihood, nutrition, access to water and health. most of these aspects are human rights issues which associated with environmental. in recent years, concerns about human rights violations due to the unhealthy environment are growing. environmental planning approaches and tools have not developed...

Most researchers agree that there is a continuum between well-definedness and ill-definedness. However, positioning a specific problem within this continuum is not always easy. To determine the degree of ill-definedness of a problem, in this paper, we propose a classification into the following five classes with respect to the size of the problems’s solution space: 1) one single solution, 2) on...

The Article is devoted to one of the methods of the conversion of fixed expressions (proverbs, sayings, aphorisms and such cliché’ sentences) in the modern Russian language – to reduce their component composition (implizieren, implications). Question quantitative changes in the steady phrases are considered in the aspect of the General problem of phraseological variability. T...

This goal of this project is to implement finegrained synchronization on a Chip Multiprocessor. Synchronization of multiple threads is an important aspect of parallel programs. Over the years researchers have proposed several algorithms and hardware implementations that attempt to understand the trade-offs in terms of latency, bandwidth, implementation complexity etc, nonetheless synchronizatio...

Mountain ecosystems provide a broad range of ecosystem services (ES). Trade-offs between different ES are an important aspect in the assessment of future sustainable land-use. Management of ES in mountain regions must confront the challenges of spatial and temporal heterogeneity, and interaction with structural changes in agriculture and forestry. Using a social-ecological modeling framework, w...

For niche differences to maintain coexistence of sympatric species, each species must grow and/or survive better than each of the others in at least one set of conditions (i.e., performance trade-offs). However, the extent of niche differentiation in tropical forests remains highly debated. We present the first test of performance trade-offs for wild seedlings in a tropical forest. We measured ...
