Temporal and spatial responses of the branch and leaf growth relationship to human water flow regulation: a case study on remnant Myricaria laxiflora populations

open access: yesJournal of Freshwater Ecology, 2020
Regulation of water flow by dams for flood control and power generation has changed the patterns of water level fluctuation in the lower Yangtze River. By investigating the branch and leaf traits of M.

Assessing the Allometric Scaling of Vectorized Branch Lengths of Trees with Terrestrial Laser Scanning and Quantitative Structure Modeling: A Case Study in Guyana

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
Allometric scaling is closely related to the morphology, function and behavior of trees, which are of great significance to the study of ecology. However, most of the traditional allometric scaling studies used the scalar attributes of trees, without ...

Allometry and Sexual Dimorphism in the Snail-eating Turtle Malayemys macrocephala from the Chao Phraya River Basin of Central Thailand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Allometric growth and sexual dimorphism of the shell is evident in Malayemys macrocephala from the Chao Phraya River Basin of central Thailand. Differences in allometric growth between males and females produce sexually dimorphic adults.

ALLOMETRIC GROWTH OF TISSUES IN PIG HAMS [PDF]

open access: yesPoljoprivreda, 2007
The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of MHS genotype on growth and development of muscle and fatty tissue in pig hams. The investigation was performed on 72 barrows divided into 4 groups according to genotype (NN and Nn) and feeding ...

Scale-adjusted metrics for predicting the evolution of urban indicators and quantifying the performance of cities

open access: yes, 2015
More than a half of world population is now living in cities and this number is expected to be two-thirds by 2050. Fostered by the relevancy of a scientific characterization of cities and for the availability of an unprecedented amount of data, academics

Applying allometric scaling to predator-prey systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
In population dynamics, mathematical models often contain too many parameters to be easily testable. A way to reliably estimate parameters for a broad range of systems would help us obtain clearer predictions from theory.

Validation and refinement of allometric equations for roots of northern hardwoods [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The allometric equations developed by Whittaker et al. (1974. Ecol. Monogr. 44: 233–252), at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest have been used to estimate biomass and productivity in northern hardwood forest systems for over three decades.

Quantile contours and allometric modelling for risk classification of abnormal ratios with an application to asymmetric growth-restriction in preterm infants

open access: yes, 2019
We develop an approach to risk classification based on quantile contours and allometric modelling of multivariate anthropometric measurements. We propose the definition of allometric direction tangent to the directional quantile envelope, which divides ...
