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