Linking multivariate trait variation to the environment: the advantages of double constrained correspondence analysis with the R package douconca by Cajo J.F. ter Braak, Bart-Jan van Rossum

“…It extends CWM-regression and fourth-corner analysis by constructing trait and environmental composites that best explain abundance data and maximizes fourth-corner correlation.In the first case study using Dune Meadow data, dc-CA showed that ecological traits (Ellenberg indicator values) are more closely related to environmental characteristics than functional traits, a conclusion difficult to draw with RLQ. …”

THE PHENOMENOSCOPIC ANALYSIS OF THE INTRAVISIBLE by Giorgio Derossi

“…It is only “intravisible” and therefore must be shown by means of a particular thought experiment: one suitably reintegrated with its inalienable visual-perceptual component and thus qualified—more so than the kind generally employed in philosophical and scientific demonstrations—to make visible the crucial factor otherwise unseen or merely glimpsed. …”

NMDA receptor inhibition increases, synchronizes, and stabilizes the collective pancreatic beta cell activity: Insights through multilayer network analysis. by Marko Šterk, Lidija Križančić Bombek, Maša Skelin Klemen, Marjan Slak Rupnik, Marko Marhl, Andraž Stožer, Marko Gosak

“…Since a disrupted collective activity is an important and possibly early contributor to impaired insulin secretion and glucose intolerance, it is of utmost importance to understand possible effects of NMDA receptor inhibition on beta cell functional connectivity. To address this issue, we combined confocal functional multicellular calcium imaging in mouse tissue slices with network science approaches. …”
