DataSheet1_Mathematical Model of SARS-Cov-2 Propagation Versus ACE2 Fits COVID-19 Lethality Across Age and Sex and Predicts That of SARS.PDF by Ugo Bastolla (88065)

“…The model fits Covid-19 fatality rate across age and sex in three countries with high accuracy (r2>0.9) under the hypothesis that the speed of viral progression in the infected organism is a decreasing function of the ACE2 level. Moreover, rescaling the fitted parameters by the ratio of the binding rates of the spike proteins of SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 allows predicting the fatality rate of SARS-CoV across age and sex, thus linking the molecular and epidemiological levels.…”

Dynamics of the body size evolution of Crocodyliformes (GSA 2018) by William Gearty (4181050)

Rationale and experimental design. by Omisa Jinsi (13367452)

“…In the non-blurred condition (top), sigma was fixed at a small value that results in no blurring throughout training, while in the two blur conditions, sigma started at 5 pixels and decreased—at different rates—over the first 50 epochs of training, corresponding to an increase in spatial acuity over the course of learning. …”

Germanium and Tin Analogues of Alkynes and Their Reduction Products by Lihung Pu (2461669)

“…The greater Sn−Sn bond length increase seen for one-electron reduction of the tin species is probably due to the increased p-character of orbitals comprising the Sn−Sn σ-bond when the Sn−Sn−C angle is decreased by ca. 30°. Upon further reduction, the slight decrease in the Sn−Sn bond is probably a result of the reduced importance of Coulombic repulsion due to the larger size of tin and a widening of the Sn−Sn−C angles which may shorten the Sn−Sn σ-bond.…”

Data_Sheet_1_Vegetation and vantage point influence visibility across diverse ecosystems: Implications for animal ecology.docx by Rachel M. Stein (13301859)

“…Generally, as height of the vantage point above the ground increased, viewshed extent also increased, but the relationships were not linear. In low-structure ecosystems (prairie, shrub-steppe, and desert), variability in viewsheds decreased as vantage points increased to heights above the vegetation canopy. …”
