Perceptual modalities guiding bat flight in a native habitat [PDF]
Flying animals accomplish high-speed navigation through fields of obstacles using a suite of sensory modalities that blend spatial memory with input from vision, tactile sensing, and, in the case of most bats and some other animals, echolocation ...

Can Farmers and Bats Co-exist? Farmer Attitudes, Knowledge, and Experiences with Bats in Belize
Bats (Chiroptera) are often viewed negatively by the public. Negative public perceptions of bats may hinder efforts to conserve declining populations.

Bat, the only flying mammal and count more than 20% of the extant mammals on earth, were recently identified as a natural reservoir of emerging and reemerging infectious pathogens. Astonishing amount (more than 70) and genetic diversity of viruses isolated from the bat have been identified in different populations throughout the world.

Florida's Bats: Velvety Free-Tailed Bat
The velvety free-tailed bat is found nowhere in the United States but extreme south Florida. These bats emerge from their roosts earlier than most other bats, often shortly before sunset. This 2-page fact sheet explains how to differentiate velvety free-

The confined hydronium ions in zeolite create an intraporous ionic environment, which increases acid‐catalyzed reaction rates in a volcanic pattern at both saturated and low concentrations of substrates in the pores. Abstract The intracrystalline ionic environment in microporous zeolite can remarkably modify the excess chemical potential of adsorbed ...

The crystal structure of urea oxalic acid (2:1) [PDF]
The crystal structure of urea oxalic acid, 2[CO(NH2)2].(COOH)2 has been determined using three-dimensional X-ray data, collected on an automatic diffractometer. The space group is P21/c. The lattice constants are: a = 5.058 (3), b = 12.400 (3), c = 6.964

Ensemble composition and activity levels of insectivorous bats in response to management intensification in coffee agroforestry systems. [PDF]
Shade coffee plantations have received attention for their role in biodiversity conservation. Bats are among the most diverse mammalian taxa in these systems; however, previous studies of bats in coffee plantations have focused on the largely herbivorous

Bat Algorithm: Literature Review and Applications [PDF]
Bat algorithm (BA) is a bio-inspired algorithm developed by Yang in 2010 and BA has been found to be very efficient. As a result, the literature has expanded significantly in the last 3 years. This paper provides a timely review of the bat algorithm and its new variants.
