Land birds on atolls: diversity, origin, and function

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oceanic islands are global hotspots of avian biodiversity and endemism. Their isolation and distinct environmental conditions have uniquely shaped the evolutionary trajectories of island birds, while, in turn, land bird communities have become critical providers of ecological functions to island ecosystems.

Reconsidering the impact of saturated fat intake on metabolic health: A critical review of evidence and controversies

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract Saturated fats (SFAs) play a complex role in health; therefore, their intake has been a topic of debate in the field of nutrition science. Therefore, this article emphasizes the importance of a balanced diet rather than SFA, considering genetic and metabolic differences, and advocates for the reconsideration of dietary guidelines based on the ...

BEHAVIOR OF COMBINATION OF COCONUT FIBER AND RECRON FIBER IN CONCRETE

International Journal of Research in Engineering and Technology, 2015
Concrete is strong in compression, as aggregate eff iciently carries the compression load. However, it is weak in tension as the cement holding the aggregate in place can crack, al lowing the structure to fail. This weakness had bee n adjusted over many decades by using a system of reinforcing bars (reba r) to create reinforced concrete; so that ...
