After introducing the possible diversity sources to form a MIMO matrix channel in a satellite environment, particular emphasis is put on satellite diversity.
The study aims were to compare soil oribatid mite diversity at sites within agricultural land and to assess the role of different land components as potential diversity sources.
Such constraints are challenging, in particular, because of the diversity sources and types of plastic waste and the high potential for contamination.
Finally, the additive and reductive features of communication technology interact with all three diversity sources to impact creative group performance in different ways.
Whereas the separation properties of all three diversity sources, as well as the variety properties of openness diversity, are evident in newly-formed groups, the variety properties of agreeableness and ethnic diversity are only manifest in mature groups.
Our research is based on arguments that three different diversity sources in groups – agreeableness, openness, and ethnicity – might simultaneously possess separation properties that result in social categorization and variety properties that provide non-redundant and value-adding information resources.
To help understand how these diversity sources interact with the additive and reductive features of communication technology to impact group creativity, we designed two studies involving computer mediation, nominal group technique, and face-to-face (control) communication.
The results document that even small landscape units may serve as important diversity sources (corridors) for restitution of local microarthropod communities in arable fields (α-diversity), provided that management practices avoid drastic changes leading to the disturbance and degradation of arable soils.
Algae are important non-model plants that have many research applications, including higher species diversity, sources of biofuel, adsorption of heavy metals and, following processing, health supplements.
Collaborating with different types of partners on R&D represents knowledge network diversity or diverse sources of knowledge.
