Fish Larval Assemblage Associated with an Eastern Tropical Pacific Coral Reef: Seasonal and Interannual Variability

Diversity
The seasonal and interannual temporal variation in the composition, richness, diversity, and similarity of fish larval assemblages associated with an Eastern Tropical Pacific (ETP) coral reef system was studied in March (cold water) and September (warm ...

Assembly processes of gastropod community change with horizontal and vertical zonation in ancient Lake Ohrid: a metacommunity speciation perspective [PDF]

, 2016
The Balkan Lake Ohrid is the oldest and most diverse freshwater lacustrine system in Europe. However, it remains unclear whether species community composition, as well as the diversification of its endemic taxa, is mainly driven by dispersal limitation ...

Effects of urbanisation and landscape heterogeneity mediated by feeding guild and body size in a community of coprophilous beetles [PDF]

, 2020
Although the impacts of urbanisation on biodiversity are well studied, the precise response of some invertebrate groups remains poorly known. Dung-associated beetles are little studied in an urban context, especially in temperate regions.

Flexible Component Composition through Communication Abstraction

Proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Model-Driven Engineering and Software Development, 2016
Software architectures are often abstracted as a combination of reusable components connected to each other by various means. Specifications of components' semantics have been widely studied and many modeling languages have been proposed from coarse-grained loosely-defined elements to operational objects with behavioral semantics that may be generated ...

Benthic algal community dynamics on Palmyra Atoll throughout a decade with two thermal anomalies

Frontiers in Marine Science
Coral reef algae serve many important ecological functions, from primary production to nutrient uptake and reef stabilization, but our knowledge of longer-term effects of thermal stress on algae in situ is limited.

Systemic inflammation, body composition, and physical performance in old community-dwellers [PDF]

, 2017
Background Chronic inflammation, changes in body composition, and declining physical function are hallmarks of the ageing process. The aim of the present study was to provide a preliminary characterisation of the relationship among these age-related ...

Parent‐to‐Child Information Disclosure in Pediatric Oncology

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Despite professional consensus regarding the importance of open communication with pediatric cancer patients about their disease, actual practice patterns of disclosure are understudied. Extant literature suggests a significant proportion of children are not told about their diagnosis/prognosis, which is purported to negatively ...

Differential arthropod responses to warming are altering the structure of Arctic communities [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science, 2018
The Arctic is experiencing some of the fastest rates of warming on the planet. Although many studies have documented responses to such warming by individual species, the idiosyncratic nature of these findings has prevented us from extrapolating them to ...
