Green algae in alpine biological soil crust communities: acclimation strategies against ultraviolet radiation and dehydration.

Biodiversity and conservation

Karsten U, Holzinger A.
PMID: 24954980

Green algae are major components of biological soil crusts in alpine habitats. Together with cyanobacteria, fungi and lichens, green algae form a pioneer community important for the organisms that will succeed them. In their high altitudinal habitat these algae...

A cortical edge-integration model of object-based lightness computation that explains effects of spatial context and individual differences.

Frontiers in human neuroscience

Rudd ME.
PMID: 25202253
Front Hum Neurosci. 2014 Aug 22;8:640. doi: 10.3389/fnhum.2014.00640. eCollection 2014.

Previous work has demonstrated that perceived surface reflectance (lightness) can be modeled in simple contexts in a quantitatively exact way by assuming that the visual system first extracts information about local, directed steps in log luminance, then spatially integrates...
