Optimal spatiotemporal control of Ailanthus altissima (Mill.) Swingle in the Alta Murgia National Park

The threat, impact and management problems associated with alien plant invasions are increasingly becoming a major issue in environmental conservation. Invasive species cause significant damages, and high associated costs. Controlling them cost-effectively is an ongoing challenge, and mathematical…

Airflow numerical optimization in subsoil decontamination problems

Stent-based drug delivery in multi-layered arterial wall

Combining pathway identification and survival prediction via screening-network analysis

Motivation Gene expression data from high-throughput assays, such as microarray, are often used to predict cancer survival. However, available datasets consist of a small number of samples (n patients) and a large number of gene expression data (p predictors). Therefore, the main challenge is to…

Optimal spatio-temporal control of invasive plant in protected areas

We develop a modelling approach for the optimal spatiotemporal control of invasive species in natural protected areas of high conservation value. The proposed approach, based on diusion equations, is spatially explicit, and includes a functional response (Holling type II) which models the control…

Airflow optimization for the decontamination of subsoil by bioventing techniques: the role of the Radius of Bioremediation

Profit participation annuities: a business profitability analysis within a demographic risk sensitive approach

Mathematical formulation of Bioventing Optimal Design Strategies

Bioventing is a technology used to abate the presence of pollutants in the subsoil. Microorganisms biodegrade the pollutant but the biochemical reaction requires oxygen and so an air ow is induced in the subsoil by means of injection and/or extraction wells. Costs, final result and decontamination…

The Big Data Era in Sky and Earth Observation Cost Action (BIG-SKY-EARTH)

Big Data Era in Sky and Earth Observation (BIG-SKY-EARTH, http://www.bigskyearth.eu) is COST Action that aims at setting the ground for a long-term networking between astronomy and remote sensing research communities in the area of Big Data utilization. The purpose of BIG-SKY-EARTH is to emphasize…

Assessing SOC trends in Alta Murgia National Park with a novel non-standard discrete RothC model

Trends of soil organic carbon (SOC) are significant indicators for land and soil degradation. Decrease in SOC compromises the efforts to achieve by 2030, a land degradation neutral world, as required by Target 15.3 of the Seventeen Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) adopted by United Nations in…
