Mapping ecosystem services provided by wetlands at multiple spatiotemporal scales : a case study in Quebec, Canada
(2019)
Abstract : Wetlands are affected by climate and anthropogenic changes, which influence the ecosystem services (ES) they provide. This study presents a spatially explicit quantification of wetland ESs. The study site is the ...
Functionalized polyhydroquinolines from amino acids using a key one-pot cyclization cascade and application to the synthesis of (±)-Δ7-mesembrenone
(2021)
Substituted polyhydroquinolines are ubiquitous skeletal cores found in drugs and bioactive natural products. As a new route to access this motif, we successfully developed a one-pot cyclization cascade with high chemocontrol ...
Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus velezensis population dynamic and quantification of spores after inoculation on ornamental plants
(2020)
Abstract: Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus velezensis are used in organic agriculture as an alternative to chemical pesticides to fight against phytopathogen organisms. These Gram-positive soil-dwelling bacteria are able to ...
Light-induced valley polarization in interacting and nonlinear Weyl semimetals
(2017)
It has been recently predicted that the interplay between Coulomb interactions and Berry curvature can
produce interesting optical phenomena in topologically nontrivial two-dimensional insulators. Here, we present a theory ...
Non local spatial and angular matching : enabling higher spatial resolution diffusion MRI datasets through adaptive denoising
(2016)
Diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) datasets suffer from low Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR), especially at high b-values. Acquiring data at high b-values contains relevant information and is now of great interest for ...
Cyclic Di-GMP Riboswitch-Regulated Type IV Pili Contribute to Aggregation of Clostridium difficile
(2015)
Clostridium difficile is an anaerobic Gram-positive bacterium that causes intestinal infections with symptoms ranging from
mild diarrhea to fulminant colitis. Cyclic diguanosine monophosphate (c-di-GMP) is a bacterial ...
Crop scouting using UAV imagery : a case study for potatoes
(2020)
Abstract : Crop scouting is essential to manage crops such as potatoes and detect stresses. In fact, conventional approaches require a lot of time and staff. The rise of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) imagery offers interesting ...
DNA-damaging agents induce the RecA-independent homologous recombination functions of integrating conjugative elements of the SXT/R391 family
(2013)
Abstract : Integrating conjugative elements (ICEs) of the SXT/R391 family are major contributors to the spread of antibiotic resistance genes. These elements also catalyze their own diversity by promoting inter-ICE ...
Macrodynamics of economics: a bibliometric history
(2016)
A history of specialties in economics since the late 1950s is constructed on the basis of a large corpus of documents from economics journals. The production of this history relies on a combination of algorithmic methods ...
There should not be any mystery: a comment on sampling issues in bibliometrics
(2016)
A research unit wants to assess whether its publications tend to be more cited than academic publications in general. This research unit could be anything from a lonesome researcher to a national research council sponsoring ...
