We study an important dynamical process, random walk, due to its wide range of applications for modeling the transporting or searching process. For lack of control methods for random walks in various structures, a control technique is presented for a class of weighted treelike scale-free networks with a deep trap at a hub node. The weighted networks are obtained from original models by introducing a weight parameter. We compute analytically the mean first passage time （MFPT） as an indicator for quantitatively measurinM the et^ciency of the random walk process. The results show that the MFPT increases exponentially with the network size, and the exponent varies with the weight parameter. The MFPT, therefore, can be controlled by the weight parameter to behave superlinearly, linearly, or sublinearly with the system size. This work provides further useful insights into controllinM eftlciency in scale-free complex networks.展开更多

We hypothesized that farmers contribute to conservation of tree diversity through protection of trees in their agroforestry landscapes and compared the diversity and structure of the tree vegetation across landscape classes. Inventories were carried out in three villages in the Groundnut Basin in Senegal, assessing tree diversity, density and crown cover. Tree diversity as assessed by species accumulation curves was high in forests, but cultivated landscapes had comparable or almost comparable diversity, especially in the cases where the forest was planted or was affected by charcoal production. However, the occurrence of exotic species was higher in cultivated parts of the landscape, and although many species were in common, ordination plots indicated that forests and cultivated landscapes to some degree had different species composition. Salinity had a strong influence on vegetation, not only in the tans (salt marshes) but also across the other landscape classes. In conclusion, agroforestry landscapes in the three villages harbor considerable tree diversity, but insufficient to fully conserve the tree species. We argue that informing and including farmers in tree management in the region will contribute to overall conservation of tree genetic resources.展开更多
