A model based on environmental factors for diameter distribution in black wattle in Brazil. [PDF]
PLoS One, 2014 This article discusses the dynamics of a diameter distribution in stands of black wattle throughout its growth cycle using the Weibull probability density function. Moreover, the parameters of this distribution were related to environmental variables from meteorological data and surface soil horizon with the aim of finding a model for diameter ...

Genetic Insights Into Human-Driven Hybridization, Cultural Shifts, and Ecological Consequences of Feral Pigs (<i>Sus scrofa</i>) in Hawai'i. [PDF]
Ecol EvolPolynesian pigs were brought to the Hawaiian Islands with Polynesian settlement in the mid‐1200s and represent part of the cultural legacy of Hawai‘i. Yet, the introduction of European pigs since 1778 and onward has put into question the ancestral composition of contemporary animals, and conservation efforts have been challenged by tension between the ...
