How Study Design Influences the Ranking of Medicinal Plant Importance: A Case Study from Ghana, West Africa
ECONOMIC BOTANY, 69(4), 306–317.
author keywords: Traditional ethnobotanical knowledge (TEK); Ghana; medicinal plants; quantitative ethnobotany; informant consensus; cultural importance
TL;DR:
The findings suggest that conservation priorities are likely to be relatively robust to the particular index and use categories employed to rank plant importance, but sample selection and elicitation methods may significantly influence results.

2015 journal article
Exploring Tradeoffs in Demand- Side and Supply- Side Management of Urban Water Resources Using Agent- Based Modeling and Evolutionary Computation
SYSTEMS, 3(4), 287–308.
author keywords: agent-based modeling; complex adaptive systems analysis; multi-objective optimization; urban water resources management; sustainability
TL;DR:
A Complex Adaptive Systems framework is developed to simulate consumer agents that change their consumption to affect the withdrawal from the water supply system, which, in turn influences operational policies and long-term resource planning and results demonstrate that pumping costs associated with maximizing environmental reliability exceed pumping Costs associated with minimizing restrictions on consumer water use.

Global divergence of the human follicle mite Demodex folliculorum: Persistent associations between host ancestry and mite lineages
PROCEEDINGS OF THE NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, 112(52), 15958–15963.
Contributors: M. Palopoli*, D. Fergus n, S. Minot *, D. Pei*, W. Simison*, I. Fernandez-Silva*, M. Thoemmes n, R. Dunn n , M. Trautwein*
author keywords: Demodex; phylogeography; symbiosis; coevolution
MeSH headings : Africa; Animals; Asia; Australia; DNA, Mitochondrial / chemistry; DNA, Mitochondrial / genetics; Electron Transport Complex IV / genetics; Europe; Genetic Variation; Genome, Mitochondrial / genetics; Geography; Hair Follicle / parasitology; Haplotypes; Host Specificity; Humans; Latin America; Mites / classification; Mites / genetics; Mites / physiology; North America; Phylogeny; Sequence Analysis, DNA; Species Specificity
TL;DR:
It is shown that hosts with different regional ancestries harbor distinct lineages of mites and that these associations can persist despite generations spent in a new geographic region, suggesting that some mite populations are better able to survive and reproduce on hosts from certain geographic regions.

Comparison of process control viruses for use in extraction and detection of human norovirus from food matrices
FOOD RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL, 77, 320–325.
author keywords: Norovirus; Process control virus; RT-qPCR; Processing efficiency
TL;DR:
This study compared five PCVs to two HuNoV strains for recovery during the steps of elution, polyethylene glycol precipitation (PEG), and RNA extraction from select foods (lettuce and sliced deli ham), and found the virus that least mimicked the behavior of Hu noV during sample processing was MNV-1.
