Death and Decomposition in Aquatic Ecosystems
Resource subsidies affect nutrient cycling, species interactions, and food webs in ways that influence ecosystem structure and function, but their effects depend on the history, magnitude, and recurrence frequency of the subsidies. In aquatic ecosystems,

Insects of forensic importance associated to cadaveric decomposition in a rural area of the Andean Amazon, Caquetá, Colombia [PDF]
Forensic entomology is a frequently used tool to estimate the time interval between death and the discovery of the corpse. Succession of arthropods associated with cadaveric decomposition was monitored in a rural area of the Municipality of Florencia ...

Aspects of the biology of the Australasian harrier (Circus aeruginosus approximans Peale 1848) : a thesis presented for the degree of Master of Science by thesis only in Zoology at Massey University [PDF]
The study is based on 18 months intensive field-work during which 212 Australasian harriers were trapped, retrapped, measured, sexed, aged, individually marked and observed.

Lie $3-$algebra and super-affinization of split-octonions
The purpose of this study is to extend the concept of a generalized Lie $3-$ algebra, known to the divisional algebra of the octonions $\mathbb{O}$, to split-octonions $\mathbb{SO}$, which is non-divisional.

Carrion’s disease: an eradicable illness? [PDF]
Carrion's disease is a neglected tropical disease caused by Bartonella bacilliformis, a vector-borne pathogen restricted to the Andean valleys of Peru, Ecuador and Colombia. Carrion's disease is a biphasic illness; in the acute phase the case-fatality rate can be as high as 88 %, related to high parasitemia, arriving to almost all erythrocytes, and ...

ABSTRACT The golden eagle (Aquila chrysaetos) nests in rock cavities where it accumulates prey bone remains during the breeding season. Because nests can be reoccupied from year to year, these faunal elements can form remarkable bone accumulations and, in the sub‐fossil record, be mixed with assemblages derived from human or other predator activities ...

Abstract Ecotourism can contribute to the conservation of environmental values, as well as to the development of positive synergies between agents in the tourism sector, tourists and the local population. The growing interest in tourism offers with low environmental impact, which support the local economy, translates into a competitive advantage for ...

Scavenging on carrion is critical and often fiercely competitive for a range of vertebrate species, from native apex predators to invasive species and even reptiles. Within Australia, a notable reptilian scavenger is the lace monitor (Varanus varius). In

Division Algebras and Extended SuperKdVs
The division algebras R, C, H, O are used to construct and analyze the N=1,2,4,8 supersymmetric extensions of the KdV hamiltonian equation. In particular a global N=8 super-KdV system is introduced and shown to admit a Poisson bracket structure given by ...
