Pollution effects on body mass distributions of freshwater benthic communities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Theoretical studies of the resilience of ecological systems to environmental change predict that the size distributions of species in ecosystems should have discontinuities that reflect similar discontinuities in ecosystem processes.

Body Cell Mass and Lean Body Mass in the Growing Beagle

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1973
SummaryThe lean body mass (LBM) was considered equivalent to fat-free wet weight (FFWW), and it decreased from 97% of body weight at birth to 85% when the pups were 1.5 mo old, after which it did n...

Body mass index: a measure of fatness or leanness?

open access: yes, 1995
The relationship between body fat and stature-adjusted weight indices was explored. Assuming the term height’ is a valid indicator of a subject’s lean body mass, heighplweight was shown to be an accurate measure of percentage lean body mass and, as such,

Body mass regulation at altitude [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Gastroenterology & Hepatology, 2006
Altitude exposure decreases energy intake and thus induces an energy deficit resulting in the loss of body mass. The energy deficit is worsened when energy expenditure is increased by exercise because the increase is not matched by an increased energy intake. The indicated fuel for the optimal use of the rarefied oxygen at altitude is carbohydrate. For

Apparent mass of small children: Modelling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Mass-spring-damper models are widely available for quantifying the whole-body vibration characteristics of primates, human adolescents and human adults, but no models have previously been developed for small children.

Food Restriction Reveals Individual Differences in Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 Reaction Norms

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Most organisms have to cope with unpredictable environmental challenges such as fluctuations in nutritional resources. Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) is an evolutionarily conserved hormone that is highly sensitive to the individual nutritional ...

Age-, sex-, and maturity-associated variation in the phase angle after adjusting for size in adolescents

open access: yesFrontiers in Nutrition, 2022
BackgroundApplied research using the phase angle (PhA) in children and adolescents has increased notably. Using multilevel modeling in a fully Bayesian framework, we examined the relationships between PhA, age, sex, biological maturity status, and body ...

Inbreeding Coefficient and Distance in MHC Genes of Parents as Predictors of Reproductive Success in Domestic Cat

open access: yesAnimals, 2022
Inbreeding and low diversity in MHC genes are considered to have a negative effect on reproductive success in animals. This study presents an analysis of the number and body mass of offspring in domestic cat, depending on the inbreeding coefficient and ...

Interspecific variation in wildlife hazards to aircraft: Implications for airport wildlife management

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2011
Understanding the relative hazards of wildlife to aircraft is important for developing effective management programs. We used Federal Aviation Administration National Wildlife Strike Database records from 1990 to 2009 in the United States to rank the ...
