Open AccessMiddle and Late Pleistocene Denisovan subsistence at Baishiya Karst Cave
Genetic and fragmented palaeoanthropological data suggest that Denisovans were once widely distributed across eastern Eurasia1–3. Despite limited archaeological evidence, this indicates that Denisovans were capab...

Darcy’s Law for Porous Media with Multiple Microstructures
In this paper we study the homogenization of the Dirichlet problem for the Stokes equations in a perforated domain with multiple microstructures. First, under the assumption that the interface between subdomai...

Transient Dynamics of Absorbed Singular Diffusions
We consider a class of one-dimensional absorbed diffusion processes with small singular noises that exhibit multi-scale dynamics in the sense that typical trajectories of the solution process first quickly app...

Anthropogenic origin of a change in the fire-climate relationship in northern China after ∼2000 yr BP: Evidence from a 15,500-year black carbon record from Dali Lake
There are debates regarding whether a wet and warm climate or a dry and cold climate dominated Holocene fire activity in northern China on the millennial timescale, and when human activities overtook climate c...

Knowledge evolution in transit-oriented development: a comparative bibliometric analysis of International versus Chinese publications
The concept of transit-oriented development (TOD) originated in the USA in the early 1990s, and was widely accepted and applied worldwide over the following decades. Recently, along with the massive constructi...

Population dynamics under climate change: persistence criterion and effects of fluctuations
The present paper is devoted to the investigation of population dynamics under climate change. The evolution of species is modelled by a reaction-diffusion equation in a spatio-temporally heterogeneous environ...

Global dynamics of a diffusive competition model with habitat degradation
In this paper, we propose a diffusive competition model with habitat degradation and homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions in a bounded domain that is partitioned into the healthy region (undisturbed habitat...

Advanced skeleton-based action recognition via spatial–temporal rotation descriptors
As human action is a spatial–temporal process, modern action recognition research has focused on exploring more effective motion representations, rather than only taking human poses as input. To better model a...

Towards mesoscopic ergodic theory
The present paper is devoted to a preliminary study towards the establishment of an ergodic theory for stochastic differential equations (SDEs) with less regular coefficients and degenerate noises. These equat...
