We investigate invasions from a biological reservoir to an initially empty, heterogeneous habitat in the presence of advection. The habitat consists of a periodic alternation of favorable and unfavorable patches. In the latter the population dies at fixed rate. In the former it grows either with… |

In the Grande da Pipa river basin, north of Lisbon, 64 % of the total number of landslides inventoried is totally or partially included in a lithological unit composed by marl, clay, and sandstone intercalation complex that is present in 58 % of the study area. The Persistent Scatterer synthetic… |

High quality long-term data sets of altitude-resolved measurements of the atmospheric composition areimportant because they can be used both to study the evolu-tion of the atmosphere and as a benchmark for future mis-sions. For the final ESA reprocessing of MIPAS (MichelsonInterferometer for… |

An algorithm for computing the antitriangular factorization of symmetric matrices, relying only on orthogonal transformations, was recently proposed. The computed antitriangular form straightforwardly reveals the inertia of the matrix. A block version of the latter algorithm was described in a… |

In this article, we face the problem of ensuring reliability of a wireless sensor network which is monitoring a given set of points of interest while maximizing its lifetime (i.e., the amount of time over which the monitoring activity can be performed). The two objectives are contrasting. Indeed,… |

The Cournot duopoly game modeled by Kopel, with adaptive expectations, is generalized by introducing the self-diffusion and cross-diffusion terms. General properties, such as boundedness and uniqueness, are obtained. Nonlinear stability results are reached by the analysis of the stability of a ODE… |

Connections between microscopic follow-the-leader and macroscopic fluid-dynamics traffic flow models are already well understood in the case of vehicles moving on a single road. Analogous connections in the case of road networks are instead lacking. This is probably due to the fact that macroscopic… |
