This work models a last-mile network design problem for an e-retailer with a capacitated two-echelon distribution structure - typical in e-retail last-mile distribution, catering to a market with a stochastic and dynamic daily customer demand requesting delivery within time-windows. Considering the distribution evnironment, this work formulates last-mile network design problem for this e-retailer as a dynamic-stochastic two capacitated location routing problem with time-windows. In doing so, this work splits the last-mile network design problem into its constituent strategic, tactical, and operational decisions. Here, the strategic decisions undertake long-term planning to develop a distribution structure with appropriate distribution facilities and a suitable delivery fleet to service the expected customer demand in the planning horizon. The tactical decisions pertain to medium-term day-to-day planning of last-mile delivery operations to establish efficient goods flow in this distribution structure to service the daily stochastic customer demand. And finally, operational decisions involve immediate short-term planning to fine-tune this last-mile delivery to service the requests arriving dynamically through the day. Note, the last-mile network design problem formulated as a location routing problem constitutes three subproblems encompassing facility location problem, customer allocation problem, and vehicle routing problem, each of which are NP-hard combinatorial optimization problems. To this end, this work develops an adaptive large neighborhood search meta-heuristic algorithm that searches through the neighborhood by destroying and consequently repairing the solution thereby reconfiguring large portions of the solution with specific operators that are chosen adaptively in each iteration of the algorithm, hence the name adaptive large neighborhood search. Further, considering the stochastic and dynamic nature of the delivery environment, this work develops a Monte-Carlo framework simulating each day in the planning horizon, with each day divided into 1-hr timeslots, and with each time-slot accepting customer requests for service by the end of the day. In particular, the framework assumes the e-retailer will delay route commitments until the last-feasible time-slot to accumulate customer requests and consequently assign them to an uncommitted delivery route. Note, a delivery route is committed once the e-retailer starts loading packages assigned to this delivery route onto the delivery vehicle assigned for this delivery route. At the end of every time-slot then, this framework assumes the e-retailer integrates the new customer requests by inserting these customer nodes into such uncommitted delivery routes in a manner that results in the least increase in distribution cost keeping the customer-distribution facility allocation fixed. Thus, the framework iterates through the time-slots with the e-retailer processing route commitments, accumulating customer requests, and subsequently integrating them into the delivery operations for the day. E-commerce has the potential to make urban goods flow economically viable, environmentally efficient, and socially equitable. However, as e-retailers compete with increasingly consumer-focused services, urban freight witnesses a significant increase in associated distribution costs and negative externalities particularly affecting those living close to logistics clusters. Hence, to remain competitive, e-retailers deploy alternate last-mile distribution strategies. These alternate strategies, such as those that include use of electric delivery trucks for last-mile operations, a fleet of crowdsourced drivers for last-mile delivery, consolidation facilities coupled with light-duty delivery vehicles for a multi-echelon distribution, or collection points for customer pickup, can restore sustainable urban goods flow. Thus, in this study, the authors investigate the opportunities and challenges associated with such alternate last-mile distribution strategies for an e-retailer offering expedited service with rush delivery within strict timeframes. To this end, the authors formulate a last-mile network design (LMND) problem as a dynamic-stochastic two-echelon capacitated location routing problem with time-windows (DS-2E-C-LRP-TW) addressed with an adaptive large neighborhood search (ALNS) metaheuristic.

For this manuscript, there were three types of methods performed to make our main conclusions: genetic diversity and structure analyses, downloading and mapping butternut fossil pollen during the last 20,000 years, and modeling and hindcasting butternut's (Juglans cinerea) distribution 20,000 years ago to present. Genetic analyses and species distribution modeling were performed in Emily Schumacher’s Github repository (https://github.com/ekschumacher/butternut) and pollen analyses and mapping were performed in Alissa Brown’s repository (https://github.com/alissab/juglans). Here is information detailing the Genetic data Data collection description: To perform genetic diversity and structure analyses on butternut, we used genetic data from the publication Hoban et al. (2010) and genetic data from newer sampling efforts on butternut from 2011 - 2015. Individuals were collected by Jeanne Romero-Severson, Sean Hoban, and Martin Williams over the course of ~ten years with a major sampling effort closer to 2009 followed up by another round of sampling 2012 - 2015. The initial 1,004 butternut individuals that were collected were genotyped by Sean Hoban and then the subsequent 757 individuals were genotyped in the Romero-Severson lab at Notre Dame non-consecutively. Genotyping was performed according to Hoban et al. (2008); DNA was extracted from fresh cut twigs using DNeasy Plant Mini kits (QIAGEN). PCR was performed by using 1.5 mM MgCl2, 1x PCR buffer [50 mm KCl, 10 mm Tris-HCl (pH 9.0), 0.1% Triton-X-100 (Fisher BioTech)], 0.2 mm dNTPs, 4 pm each forward and reverse primer, 4% Bovine Serum Albumin, 0.25 U TaKaRa Ex Taq Polymerase (Panvera), and 20 ng DNA template (10 μL total volume). The PCR temperature profile was as follows: 2 min at 94 °C; 30 cycles of 94 °C for 30 s, Ta for 30 s, and 72 °C for 30 s; 45 min at 60 °C; and 10 min at 72 °C on a PTC-225 Peltier Thermal Cycler (MJ Research). The process of assessing loci and rebinning for differences in years is detailed in the Schumacher et al. (2022) manuscript. Data files butternut_44pop.gen: Genepop file of original 1,761 butternut individuals, sampling described above, separated into original 44 sampling populations. butternut_24pop_nomd.gen: Genepop file of 1,635 butternut individuals, following rebinning based on researcher binning, reduced based on geographic isolation and missing data, organized into 24 populations. Used to generate all genetic diversity results. butternut_24pop_relate_red.gen: Genepop file of 993 butternut individuals, reduced for 25% relatedness, used to generate all clustering analyses. butternut_26pop_nomd.gen: Genepop file of 1,662 butternut individuals, reduced based on geographic isolation and missing data, including Quebec individuals, organized into 26 populations. Used to generate genetic diversity results with Quebec individuals. butternut_26pop_relate_red.gen: Genepop file of 1,015 butternut individuals, including Quebec individuals, reduced for 25% relatedness, used to generate clustering analyses with Quebec individuals. Fossil Pollen Data collection description: Pollen records for butternut were downloaded from Neotoma Paleoecology Database in 500-year time increments and visualized in 1,000 year-time increments 20,000 years ago to present. Data files butternut_pollen_data.csv: CSV of pollen records used for analyses and mapping. Includes original coordinates for each record (“og_long”, “og_lat”), the count of Juglans cinerea pollen at each site (“Juglans_cinerea_count”), and the age of the record (“Age”). To create the final maps, the coordinates were projected into Albers for each record (“Proj_Long,” “Proj_Lat”). Species Distribution Modeling and Hindcast Modeling Data collection description: We wanted to identify butternut's ecological preferences using boosted regression trees (BRT) and then hindcast distribution models into the past to identify migration pathways and locations of glacial refugia. Species distribution modeling was performed using boosted regression trees according to Elith et al. (2008). To run BRT, we needed to: 1. Reduce occurrence records to account for spatial autocorrelation, 2. Generate pseudo-absence points to identify the habitat where butternut is not found, 3. Obtain and extract the 19 bioclimatic variables at all points, 4. Select ecological variables least correlated with each other and most correlated with butternut presence. The BRT model that predicted butternut's ecological niche was then used to hypothesize butternut's suitable habitat and range shifts in the past. We downloaded occurrence records according to Beckman et al. (2019) as described here: https://github.com/MortonArb-ForestEcology/IMLS_CollectionsValue. The habitat suitability map generated from the BRT were projected into the past 20,000 years using Paleoclim variables (Brown et al., 2018). Data files butternut_BRT_var.csv: A CSV of the butternut presence and pseudoabsence points and extracted Bioclim variables (Fick & Hijman, 2017) used to run BRT in the final manuscript. Longitude and latitude coordinates are projected into Albers Equal Area Conic project, same with all of the ecological variables. Presence points are indicated with a 1 in the “PA” column and pseudo-absence points are indicated with a “0.” The variables most correlated with presence and least correlated with each other in this analysis were precipitation of the wettest month (“PwetM”), mean diurnal range (“MDR”), mean temperature of the driest quarter (“MTDQ”), mean temperature of the wettest quarter (“MTwetQ”), and seasonal precipitation (“precip_season”).

Range‐wide distribution of genetic diversity in the North American tree Juglans cinerea: A product of range shifts, not ecological marginality or recent population decline. Molecular Ecology, 19, 4876-4891. Aim: Range shifts are a key process that determine species distributions and genetic patterns. A previous investigation reported that Juglans cinerea (butternut) has lower genetic diversity at higher latitudes, hypothesized to be the result of range shifts following the last glacial period. However, genetic patterns can also be impacted by modern ecogeographic conditions. Therefore, we re-investigate genetic patterns of butternut with additional northern population sampling, hindcasted species distribution models, and fossil pollen records to clarify the impact of glaciation on butternut. Location: Eastern North America Taxon: Juglans cinerea (L., Juglandaceae) (butternut) Methods: Using 11 microsatellites, we examined range-wide spatial patterns of genetic diversity metrics (allelic richness, heterozygosity, FST) for previously studied butternut individuals and an additional 757 samples. We constructed hindcast species distribution models and mapped fossil pollen records to evaluate habitat suitability and evidence of species’ presence throughout space and time. Results: Contrary to previous work on butternut, we found that genetic diversity increased with distance to range edge, and previous latitudinal clines in diversity were likely due to a few outlier populations. Populations in New Brunswick, Canada were genetically distinct from other populations. At the Last Glacial Maximum, pollen records demonstrate butternut likely persisted near the glacial margin, and hindcast species distribution models identified suitable habitat in the southern United States and near Nova Scotia. Main conclusions: Genetic patterns in butternut may be shaped by both glaciation and modern environmental conditions. Pollen records and hindcast species distribution models combined with genetic distinctiveness in New Brunswick suggest that butternut may have persisted in cryptic northern refugia. We suggest that thorough sampling across a species range and evaluating multiple lines of evidence are essential to understanding past species movements. Data was cleaned and processed in R - genetic data cleaning and analyses and species distribution modeling methods were performed in Emily Schumacher's butternut repository and fossil pollen data cleaning and modeling was performed in Alissa Brown's juglans repository. Steps for performing data cleanining, analyses, and generating figures for the manuscript are described within each repo.

NA Input data We use the available data from the “Vegetative Lifeform Cover from Landsat SR for CONUS” product (https://daac.ornl.gov/cgi-bin/dsviewer.pl?ds_id=1809) to evaluate the changes in vegetation fractional cover. The information for the climate factors was derived from the TerraClimate data catalog (https://www.climatologylab.org/terraclimate.html). We downloaded data from this catalog for the period 1971 to 2018 for the following variables: minimum temperature (TMIN), precipitation (PPT), actual evapotranspiration (AET), potential evapotranspiration (PET), and climatic water deficit (DEF). Preprocessing of vegetation fractional cover data We resampled and aligned the maps of fractional cover using pixel averaging to the extent and resolution of the TerraClimate dataset (~ 4 km). Then, we calculated rates of lifeform cover change per pixel using the Theil-Sen slope analysis (Sen, 1968; Theil, 1992). Preprocessing of climate variables data To process the climate data, we defined a year time step as the months from July of one year to July of the next. Following this definition, we constructed annual maps of each climate variable for the years 1971 to 2018. The annual maps of each climate variable were further summarized per pixel, into mean and slope (calculated as the Theil-Sen slope) across one, two, three, four, five, ten-, and 15-year lags. Estimation of climate potential We constructed a final multilayer dataset of response and predictor variables for the CONUS including the resulting maps of fractional cover rate of change (four response variables), the mean and slope maps for the climate variables for all the time-lags (70 predictor variables), and the initial percent cover for each lifeform in the year 1986 (four predictor variables). We evaluated for each pixel in the CONUS which of the predictor variables produced the minimum potential rate of change in fractional cover for each lifeform class. To do that, we first calculated the 100% quantile hull of the distribution of each predictor variable against each response variable. To calculate the 100% quantile of the predictor variables’ distribution we divided the total range of each predictor variable into equal-sized bins. The size and number of bins were set specifically per variable due to differences in their data distribution. For each of the bins, we calculated the maximum value of the vegetation rate of change, which resulted in a lookup table with the lower and upper boundaries of each bin, and the associated maximum rate of change. We constructed a total of 296 lookup tables, one per lifeform class and predictor variable combination. The resulting lookup tables were used to construct spatially explicit maps of maximum vegetation rate of change from each of the predictor variable input rasters, and the final climate potential maps were constructed by stacking all the resulting maps per lifeform class and selecting for each pixel the minimum predicted rate of change and the predictor variable that produced that rate. Identifying climate-limited areas We defined climate-limited areas as the parts of the CONUS with little or no differences between the estimated climate potential and the observed rates of change in fractional cover. To identify these areas, we subtracted the raster of observed rates of change from the raster of climate potential for each lifeform class. In the study “CLIMATE-LIMITED VEGETATION CHANGE IN THE CONTERMINOUS UNITED STATES OF AMERICA”, published in the Global Change Biology journal, we evaluated the effects of climate conditions on vegetation composition and distribution in the conterminous United States (CONUS). To disentangle the direct effects of climate change from different non-climate factors, we applied "Liebig's law of the minimum" in a geospatial context, and determined the climate-limited potential for tree, shrub, herbaceous, and non-vegetation fractional cover change. We then compared these potential rates against observed change rates for the period 1986 to 2018 to identify areas of the CONUS where vegetation change is likely being limited by climatic conditions. This dataset contains the input and the resulting rasters for the study which include a) the observed rates of vegetation change, b) the climate derived potential vegetation rates of change, c) the difference between potential and observed values and d) the identified climatic limiting factor.

Flight trajectories of fruit flies and mosquitoes in a wind tunnel.This data file is a MySQL database file which must be uploaded to a MySQL database management system (DBMS) (e.g., via the MAMP installation: http://localhost:8888/MAMP/?language=English, as was used in the associated manuscript). Once you have installed a MySQL DBMS on your machine, make a new database called “wind_tunnel_db”. To populate this database using the data file, first download all of the data files and join them together using: cat wind_tunnel_db_* > wind_tunnel_db.sql Then run the following command to populate the wind_tunnel_db MySQL database with the result. /path/to/mysql -uroot -proot wind_tunnel_db < /path/to/wind_tunnel_db.sql replacing the paths and username/passwords as appropriate. It will take several minutes since it is a large file. The database contains several tables, which are mostly self explanatory. The key tables of interest are the “experiment” table, which lists the 4 experiments contained in this data set, the “timepoint” table, which contains the position, velocity, etc., of every fly/mosquito at every measured time point, and the “trajectory” table, which indicates which set of time points correspond to which individual trajectories. Other useful tables that have been pre-populated are the “crossing” table, which specifies trajectory segments corresponding to each plume crossing, and the “crossing_group” table, which groups sets of crossings together according to experiment and crossing identification criteria. The code that interacts with this database and recreates the figures in the associated manuscript is contained at https://github.com/rkp8000/wind_tunnel.wind_tunnel_db_aaPart 2wind_tunnel_db_abPart 3wind_tunnel_db_acPart 4wind_tunnel_db_adPart 5wind_tunnel_db_aePart 6wind_tunnel_db_afPart 7wind_tunnel_db_agPart 8wind_tunnel_db_ahPart 9wind_tunnel_db_aiInfotaxis databaseBase database for running infotaxis simulations. To see how to prepare and populate this database with simulated trajectory data, see the file _paper_auxiliary_code in the GitHub repository http://github.com/rkp8000/wind_tunnel.infotaxis_db.sql Natural decision-making often involves extended decision sequences in response to variable stimuli with complex structure. As an example, many animals follow odor plumes to locate food sources or mates, but turbulence breaks up the advected odor signal into intermittent filaments and puffs. This scenario provides an opportunity to ask how animals use sparse, instantaneous, and stochastic signal encounters to generate goal-oriented behavioral sequences. Here we examined the trajectories of flying fruit flies (Drosophila melanogaster) and mosquitoes (Aedes aegypti) navigating in controlled plumes of attractive odorants. While it is known that mean odor-triggered flight responses are dominated by upwind turns, individual responses are highly variable. We asked whether deviations from mean responses depended on specific features of odor encounters, and found that odor-triggered turns were slightly but significantly modulated by two features of odor encounters. First, encounters with higher concentrations triggered stronger upwind turns. Second, encounters occurring later in a sequence triggered weaker upwind turns. To contextualize the latter history dependence theoretically, we examined trajectories simulated from three normative tracking strategies. We found that neither a purely reactive strategy nor a strategy in which the tracker learned the plume centerline over time captured the observed history dependence. In contrast, “infotaxis”, in which flight decisions maximized expected information gain about source location, exhibited a history dependence aligned in sign with the data, though much larger in magnitude. These findings suggest that while true plume tracking is dominated by a reactive odor response it might also involve a history-dependent modulation of responses consistent with the accumulation of information about a source over multi-encounter timescales. This suggests that short-term memory processes modulating decision sequences may play a role in natural plume tracking.

We monitored golden-cheeked warbler territories in 10 plots within an urban preserve to determine abundance, delineate territories, and document breeding success. We determined environmental conditions across the study period to examine temporal and landscape effects. We then used these data to estimate adult survival and productivity and relate these vital rates to environmental conditions experienced during our study period. We used supported covariates to predict potential effects on this population 25 years into the future. These data and code are associated with the publication in Ecosphere entitled "Urban land cover and El Nino events negatively impact population viability of an endangered North American songbird." We performed an integrated population model to evaluate the effect of climate patterns and urban land cover on the viability of an endangered wood-warbler breeding in central Texas. We used territory monitroing data from 2011–2019 to predict viability of the population 25 years into the future. We assembled and conducted the analysis in R.
