Comparison of different models to describe the lactation curve of Holstein cows in a small-scale dairy system by Luis Javier Montiel-Olguín, Felipe de Jesús Ruiz-López, Sergio Gómez-Rosales, Germinal Jorge Cantó-Alarcón, Eliab Estrada-Cortés, Héctor Raymundo Vera-Ávila

“…Monthly milk weighins from 936 lactations were conducted in 23 farms in western Mexico. The Bayesian information criterion (BIC) and mean square prediction error (MSPE) were used to assess the fit of the models to the observed data, and the root mean square prediction error as a percentage of the observed mean (%RMSPE) was used to evaluate the accuracy of the models. …”

Introducing Iterative Model Calibration (IMC) v1.0: a generalizable framework for numerical model calibration with a CAESAR-Lisflood case study by C. Banerjee, K. Nguyen, C. Fookes, G. Hancock, T. Coulthard

“…<p>In geosciences, including hydrology and geomorphology, the reliance on numerical models necessitates the precise calibration of their parameters to effectively translate information from observed to unobserved settings. Traditional calibration techniques, however, are marked by poor generalizability, demanding significant manual labor for data preparation and the calibration process itself. …”

Experimental data suggest between population reversal in the condition dependence of two sexually selected traits by Gergely Hegyi, Miklós Laczi, Gyula Szabó, Dóra Kötél, Fanni Sarkadi, János Török

“…Both patches are sexually selected in both populations, so the diverging results offer the first experimental suggestion of a trait by population crossover in the information content of two sexual ornaments. We conclude that explaining why some ornaments are condition-dependent is still far ahead, and further, preferably experimental population comparisons would be helpful.…”

Phenology of four tree species in an Atlantic Forest fragment in Southern Minas Gerais by Nathan Felipe Alves, Paulo Oswaldo Garcia

“…It was then observed that endogenous characteristics along with seasonal pressures influenced the time and period of phenophases, as well as the pollination and dispersal syndromes linked to these behaviors. The information in this work shows a way to understand the autoecology and population dynamics of these species, contributing to the conservation of biodiversity, as well as to the sustainable use of resources. …”
