The length-weight relationship (LWR) and length-length relationships (LLR) of three snakehead fishes, Channa diplogramma, C. marulius and C. striata, exploited by small-scale fishers in the riverine reaches of Lake Vembanad, Kerala were studied using the

Abstract Macaws are renowned for processing dry, mechanically resistant fruits, yet the species‐level anatomical and functional correlates of this performance remain incompletely resolved. We examined the feeding apparatus of the Blue‐and‐yellow Macaw (Ara ararauna) using an integrated approach that combines osteology, myology, and bite‐force estimates

ALLOMETRIC GROWTH IN BRAZILIAN NATURALIZED PIGS [PDF]
The allometric growth of male and female naturalized pig breeds (Nilo, Piau, Moura, and Monteiro) was evaluated regarding hip height, snout length, and head length using the allometric equation.

Allometric relationships between stem variables and leaf area in planted Eucalyptus nitens and naturally regenerating acacia dealbata [PDF]
Allometric relationships between stem variables and leaf area were determined for plantation Eucalyptus nitens (Deane et Maiden) Maiden and competing Acacia dealbata Link in 8-year-old and 4-year-old stands.

BIOMASS ALLOMETRY FOR TREE SPECIES OF NORTHWESTERN MEXICO
Tree biomass plays a key role in sustainable forest management since it is the basis for estimating stocks and fluxes of several biogeochemical elements, the amount of energy stored in biomass, and other conventional goods and services.

The largest silesaurid known from South America is described here, demonstrating that silesaurids reached large body sizes in southwestern Gondwana. This discovery further underscores the widespread geographic distribution and temporal persistence of large silesaurids across Pangea, despite faunal turnovers and environmental events such as the Carnian ...

Abstract Studies of Upper Cretaceous deposits in North America have provided invaluable insights into the continental ecosystems of this time. Theropod (Saurischia, Dinosauria) pedal phalanges are commonplace in these deposits but can be difficult to identify at a finer taxonomic resolution.

Allometric Equations for Estimating the Carbon Sequestration in Rubber Plantations
Deforestation occurs due to agriculture and agroforestry. Since it can alter the whole ecosystem and can change regional and global climate, Malaysia is one of the membersof United Nation Framework on Climate Change (UNFCCC) which applies Kyoto protocol to curb this problem.

Allometric equations for Sequoia sempervirens in forests of different ages
Abstract Mature second-growth forests dominated by Sequoia sempervirens occupy only two percent of the species’ current distribution yet represent an important benchmark for restoration management. Here we develop new allometric equations for these forests based on 44 trees 23–84 m tall, which can be used to estimate leaf, bark, cambium, sapwood, and

Evaluating allometric shrub biomass equations fit to generated data [PDF]
Several published allometric biomass equations may be available for a particular species. For some applications a method is needed to produce a single equation for the species.
