Density, Temperature, and Comingled Species Affect Fitness within Carrion Communities: Coexistence in Phormia regina and Lucilia sericata (Diptera: Calliphoridae)

Insects, 2023
Blow fly (Diptera: Calliphoridae) interactions vary between competition and facilitation. Female blow flies engage in aggregated egg-laying, resulting in larval feeding masses differing in density and species composition.

Influence of Maturity Stage on Fruit Quality during Storage of �Earli Grande� Peaches

Notulae Scientia Biologicae, 2010
Peach is a perishable fruit and to ensure the highest fruit quality peaches must be harvested at an appropriate stage of maturity. In the present study, effect of maturity stage at harvest and cold storage on the physical and chemical characteristics of ...

Binocular contrast vision at and above threshold [PDF]

, 2006
A fundamental problem for any visual system with binocular overlap is the combination of information from the two eyes. Electrophysiology shows that binocular integration of luminance contrast occurs early in visual cortex, but a specific systems ...

Liquid Crystal Based Head-Up Display with Electrically Controlled Contrast Ratio

Crystals, 2019
With the growing demand for driving safety and convenience, Head-Up Displays (HUDs) have gained more and more interest in recent years. In this paper, we propose a HUD system with the ability to adjust the relative brightness of ambient light and virtual

Binocular interaction: contrast matching and contrast discrimination are predicted by the same model [PDF]

, 2007
How do signals from the 2 eyes combine and interact? Our recent work has challenged earlier schemes in which monocular contrast signals are subject to square-law transduction followed by summation across eyes and binocular gain control.

The Far-INfrarEd Spectrometer for Surface Emissivity (FINESSE) – Part 2: First measurements of the emissivity of water in the far-infrared [PDF]

Atmospheric Measurement Techniques
In this paper, we describe a method for retrieving the surface emissivity of specular surfaces across the wavenumber range of 400–1600 cm−1 using novel radiance measurements of the Far-INfrarEd Spectrometer for Surface Emissivity (FINESSE) instrument ...
