Population and species neighbor identity impact trait–trait relationships and plant performance
Population Ecology, EarlyView.We evaluated how populations and species identity influence plant performance and trait outcomes in mixtures, and assessed trait variation among populations of two forb species native to the western United States (Dieteria canescens and Heterotheca villosa) following three interaction treatments (single‐population monoculture, two‐population mixture ...

Brazilian Journal of Oceanography, 2010 Urban development in coastal areas is intense and leads to the increase of sewage outfall and other negative impacts as consequences. Thus, stringent regulations establishing limits to the microbiological contamination of water and seafood are needed ...

Population Ecology, EarlyView.This study examines the demographic dynamics of two seabird populations on Tromelin Island, 15 years after the eradication of brown rats. The results indicate that these populations are in good health and are expected to continue growing until breeding sites are saturated in about a century.

The unpredictably eruptive dynamics of spruce budworm populations in eastern Canada
Population Ecology, EarlyView.We examine historical population data for spruce budworm from several locations through the period 1930–1997, and use density‐dependent recruitment curves to test whether the pattern of population growth over time is more consistent with Royama's (1984; Ecological Monographs 54:429–462) linear R(t) model of harmonic oscillation at Green River New ...

Вестник СибАДИ, 2023 Introduction. Malfunctions of the elements of the fuel injection system lead to a deterioration in the performance of diesel engines. The largest proportion of faults that occur during the operation of battery injection systems are electro-hydraulic ...

Effects of bearing clearance on the chatter stability of milling process [PDF]
, 2010 In the present study, the influences of the bearing clearance, which is a common fault for machines, to the chatter stability of milling process are examined by using numerical simulation method.

Network topology drives population temporal variability in experimental habitat networks
Population Ecology, EarlyView.Habitat patches connected by dispersal pathways form habitat networks. We explored how network topology affects population outcomes in laboratory experiments using a model species (Daphnia carinata). Central habitat nodes in complex lattice networks exhibited lower temporal variability in population sizes, suggesting they support more stable ...

The Economic Journal, 2007 Clearance sales are widely used by firms as an intertemporal selling policy, in particular in markets where firms face demand uncertainty and need to choose capacity in advance. Clearance sales consist in charging a high price initially but then lowering the price in the sales period. High-valuation consumers purchase the good at the high initial price

What you see is what you step: the horizontal-vertical illusion increases toe clearance in older adults during stair ascent [PDF]
, 2015 PURPOSE Falls on stairs are a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in elderly people. A simple safety strategy to avoid tripping on stairs is increasing foot clearance. We determined whether a horizontal–vertical illusion superimposed onto stairs

Geographic variation in walking activity in the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum
Population Ecology, EarlyView.This study examined whether there is geographic variation in field populations, focusing on the moving activity in the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum. Results showed significant differences in moving activity among field populations but no correlation with latitude or meteorological factors.
