Grid cells are a class of specialized neurons in a brain region called the entorhinal cortex, which is known to support ...

To study pattern formation, researchers used a method called the landscape-flux framework — which can be extended to other ...

Spatial co-location pattern mining is a sub-discipline of spatial data analysis that seeks to identify subsets of spatial features which frequently occur in close proximity. It aims to uncover the ...

We examined patterns of spatial heterogeneity in the Spring River basin fish community along with environmental correlates to assess the relative importance of geographic distances and habitat ...

Their grid cells reflected their confusion. Despite having developed distinct firing patterns for each track, their grid cells fired erratically when the tracks were alternated. "Their spatial recall ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract The spatial analysis of linear features (lines and curves) is a challenging and rarely attempted problem in ecology. Existing methods are ...

A new study links grazing halo patterns in coral reefs, as well as those in other patchy habitats, to the spatial patterns of the shelter habitat itself. The researchers found that grazing halos are ...

A study finds that steady road noise can make urban squirrels feel safer. The predictability of sound matters more than ...

Some children focused on fewer parts of the object and spent less time studying its details. This suggests they used a ...

Labor market conditions are similar in regions that are near each other. This is called positive spatial correlation.
