Variable grouping patterns in primates: A test of the better competitor hypothesis in male Verreaux's sifaka (Propithecus verreauxi)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Intraspecific variation in social organization (IVSO) within primate populations can arise due to male mating competition. Verreaux's sifaka (Propithecus verreauxi) populations exhibit both single‐male and multi‐male groups, providing an opportunity to examine the relationship between male competitive ability and social organization.

Assessing Atlantic sailfish catch rates based on Brazilian sport fishing tournaments (1996-2014)

Boletim do Instituto de Pesca, 2016
In the present study, a generalized linear model (GLM), assuming a Tweedie distribution and log as link function, was used to generate a standardized catch per unit effort (CPUE) series for the sailfish caught by sport fishing boats based in São Paulo ...

Humans and platyrrhines share a pattern of articular variance

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Previous work has identified a pattern of articular shape variation in modern human limb joints, in which convex joint surfaces exhibit constrained variance relative to their more variable concave conarticulars. This pattern is notable given that joint morphogenesis is influenced by local biomechanical environments, which vary substantially ...

Sampling technique affects the population structure assessments of fiddler crab Minuca vocator (Herbst, 1804) (Ocypodidae: Gelasiminae)

Nauplius
We examined how the sampling technique can affect the evaluation of Minuca vocator (Herbst, 1804) population structure. We used two sampling procedures: catch-per-unit-effort (CPUE) and quadrat technique (QT).

A Geomorphometric Approach to Estimate the Deterioration of Earthen Archaeological Sites by Rainfall and Diffusion Processes: The Huaca Chornancap (Eighth–14th Century ad), Lambayeque, Peru

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rain‐induced erosion processes can severely damage Earthen archaeological sites. Huaca Chornancap (HCH; eighth–14th century ad) is a platform located in the Lambayeque region (Peru) exposed to seasonal rain due to El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO).

Diel Catch Variation of the Primary Fish Species Captured by Trammel Nets in a Shallow Eutrophic Lake in Jiangsu Province, China

Fishes
Fish diel activity can affect the catch of fishing gear, such as gill nets, thereby influencing fishery resource assessment and management. This study investigated diel catch variations of primary fish species in Gehu Lake using monofilament trammel nets
