Evaluating LCOE in sustainable microgrids for smart city applications by Bracco, Stefano, Delfino, Federico, Laiolo, Paola, Pagnini, Luisa, Piazza, Giorgio

“…A microgrid can be considered a profitable solution to be adopted in smart cities if it is marketable, i.e. more, or at least equally convenient than other…”

Mechanisms underlying the bioindicator notion: spatial association between individual sexual performance and community diversity by Laiolo, Paola, Bañuelos, María J, Blanco-Fontao, Beatriz, García, Mónica, Gutiérrez, Gloria

“…The bioindicator notion is an appealing concept that has received more support in applied than in basic ecology, mostly due to the difficulty in deriving…”
