Geographic variation in walking activity in the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum
Population Ecology, EarlyView.This study examined whether there is geographic variation in field populations, focusing on the moving activity in the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum. Results showed significant differences in moving activity among field populations but no correlation with latitude or meteorological factors.

Population Ecology, EarlyView.We investigate the seasonal dynamics of two freshwater snails, Biomphalaria straminea and Melanoides tuberculata, in artificial reservoirs of the Brazilian semiarid region. Despite regulated hydrology, B. straminea exhibited strong seasonal fluctuations associated with dry periods, while M. tuberculata maintained stable populations throughout the year,

Water transport across biological membranes [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 1994 The rate of the lateral diffusion of straight‐chain phospholipids predicts the rate of water diffusion through bilayers. A new model of lipid dynamics integrates these processes. Substances such as cholesterol that reduce water diffision proportionally reduce lateral diffusion.

Moving in the Dark: Enlightening the Spatial Population Ecology of European Cave Salamanders
Population Ecology, EarlyView.We assessed individual interactions, movement ecology and activity patterns of a subterranean population of Speleomantes strinatii, applying spatial capture–recapture modeling to a photographic dataset of 104 individuals. ABSTRACT Space use and movement are fundamental aspects of organisms' ecology, mirroring individual fitness, behavior, and life ...

Homogenization of oxygen transport in biological tissues [PDF]
Applicable Analysis, 2015 In this paper, we extend previous work on the mathematical modeling of oxygen transport in biological tissues (Matzavinos et al., 2009). Specifically, we include in the modeling process the arterial and venous microstructure within the tissue by means of homogenization techniques.

Infection Models for Pine Wilt Disease on the Basis of Vector Behaviors
Population Ecology, EarlyView.Infection models for pine wilt disease without vector density were built to estimate the transmission coefficient of the pathogenic nematode. The models successfully simulated the annual change in the density of infected trees for four pine stands. ABSTRACT Pine wilt disease is caused by the pinewood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus Steiner et ...
