Community dynamics in restored salt marshes

Salt marshes are important coastal ecosystems because they provide many services to surrounding areas. However, due to their highly productive nature, they have a long history of being converted into farmland in Maritime Canada. In recent years, there has been strong interest in restoring salt marshes to protect against coastal erosion, mitigate sea level rise, […]

Chemical reaction mechanisms with eXplainable Machine Learning

Deep learning systems can predict properties of chemical substances but do so in a purely mathematical way. As a consequence, the user does not get any feedback on what are the essential properties a chemical must have to exhibit a certain property. This hampers getting any insight in to the relationship between molecular structure and […]
