Fruit use and fruit processing by euphonias, specialized avian frugivores
Euphonias (Neotropical passerines in the genera Euphonia and Chlorophonia) form the quintessential example of a specialized avian frugivore, combining a high reliance on fruit as food and the restriction of fruit taxa exploited. To understand their specialization, we explored the integration of fruit morphological and nutritional traits with their ...

Biodiversity dynamics in heterogeneous landscapes is the result of a complex interplay between movement processes of organisms within and between habitat patches, and niche filtering processes due to spatially varying environmental conditions. Disentangling the relative influences of these different processes on community assembly and dynamics is a ...

Some love them, others hate them: Understanding farmers' tree planting decisions in Scotland
Abstract Agroforestry is increasingly recognized as a sustainable agricultural land use system with potential to sequester carbon, create and repair habitats, enhance biodiversity and offer environmental and socio‐economic benefits, including improved agricultural productivity.

Low‐Velocity Impact Response of Nacre‐Inspired E‐Glass/Epoxy Composites With Varying Platelet Sizes
Impact response of nacre‐inspired E‐glass/epoxy composites with different platelet sizes. ABSTRACT This study explores the low‐velocity impact behavior of nacre‐inspired biomimetic platelet composites (NIBPC), using low‐cost E‐glass fiber in chopped strand mat (CSM) form as reinforcement and epoxy resin as the matrix.

Brownotate, a Comprehensive Solution to Generate Protein Sequence Databases for Any Species
ABSTRACT Proteomics is strengthening research in biology and the diversification of the model organisms studied is very promising for fully understanding the complexity of biological principles. However, the lack of protein sequence databases for many species is a major bottleneck.
