Insectos acuáticos indicadores de calidad del agua en México: casos de estudio, ríos Copalita, Zimatán y Coyula, Oaxaca

Revista Mexicana de Biodiversidad, 2013
Dentro de los macroinvertebrados que habitan los ambientes dulceacuícolas, los insectos son el grupo biológico más idóneo para determinar la calidad del agua de los ecosistemas, ya sean lénticos o lóticos.

Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vector‐Borne Diseases (VBDs), transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and sandflies, represent a significant threat to global health. These diseases can be caused by a variety of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and helminths.

Comparación de tres métodos de infiltración utilizados para el cálculo del balance hídrico del suelo, en la Cuenca del río Suquiapa, El Salvador

Cuadernos de investigación UNED, 2017
La infiltración del agua en el suelo juega un papel fundamental en el ciclo hidrológico. Dependiendo de las condiciones geológicas, puede permanecer en el suelo en forma de humedad; escurrir como flujo subsuperficial y aflorar como una naciente efímera ...

Computed tomography reveals multiple origins of extreme caudal vertebral pneumaticity in sauropod dinosaurs

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Here, we present novel CT scan data of caudal vertebrae of six Middle–Late Jurassic sauropods, representing several eusauropod lineages. We synthesise these new data with a comprehensive critical appraisal of purported external and internal evidence for caudal vertebral PSP in Sauropodomorpha.

Computed tomography reveals the endocranial anatomy of Crocodylia: Implications for phylogenetic relationships and ecomorphological convergence across Crocodylomorpha

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The evaluation of the endocranial anatomy of 43 crocodylian species reveals several differences, including variation in the curvature of the encephalic endocast, the size of the endosseous labyrinth and paratympanic sinuses, and the presence of additional snout sinuses.

Employing a Hysteresis Approach to Analyze Shifts in Tree Physiological Thresholds in Response to Drought

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drought‐induced tree mortality underscores the need for improved physiological models to predict tree responses to water stress. We employed a hysteresis modelling approach analyzing diel water absorption and desorption cycles to understand drought‐induced shifts in physiological thresholds.

Iron homeostasis in the annual and perennial stem zones of Arabis alpina

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Iron accumulates in secondary growth tissues in the perennial stem zone and is correlated with particular gene expression patterns in the perennial model plant Arabis alpina. Abstract Plants store nutrients, including the micronutrient iron, in bioavailable forms to support growth in subsequent seasons. The perennial lifestyle is preponderant in nature.

‘I'm Dead!’: Action, Homicide and Denied Catharsis in Early Modern Spanish Drama

Renaissance Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract In early modern Spanish drama, the expression ‘¡Muerto soy!’ (‘I'm dead!’) is commonly used to indicate a literal death or to figuratively express a character's extreme fear or passion. Recent studies, even one collection published under the title of ‘¡Muerto soy!’, have paid scant attention to the phrase in context, a serious omission when ...

Electrophysiological characterization of pre‐adolescents born with intrauterine growth restriction: insights from clinical and computational data

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Depolarization and repolarization duration analysis was conducted in preadolescent groups with IUGR and controls using a 12‐lead ECG. Principal component analysis was applied over the 12‐lead ECGs to generate spatially transformed leads better suited for robust ECG fiducial points detection.
