Are dung beetles driving dung-fly abundance in traditional agricultural areas in the amazon?
, 2012 We evaluated the effects of different land-use systems on the ability of dung beetles to control the population of detritus-feeding flies. We tested the hypotheses that intensification of land use will reduce dung beetles richness, abundance and biomass ...

Dung beetles (Coleoptera: Scarabaeoidea) in three landscapes in Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil
Brazilian Journal of BiologyDung beetles (Coleoptera: Scarabaeoidea) in three landscapes in Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil. Dung Beetles are important for biological control of intestinal worms and dipterans of economic importance to cattle, because they feed and breed in dung, killing

Droplet, EarlyView.Bubble dynamics pose critical bottlenecks to hydrogen evolution reaction efficiency, causing active site isolation, increased ohmic resistance, and concentration overpotential, especially at high current densities. This review comprehensively summarizes passive and active bubble manipulation strategies, elucidates their underlying principles, and ...

Dung Beetles: From Ecosystem Engineers to Invasive Species
, 2023 Ecosystem services are the benefits provided by the natural environment and species to human beings through a set of ecological functions. One group of ecosystem service providers is the dung beetles (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae, Aphodiidae and Geotropidae).

An optimizing microseismic method for rock burst early warning based on mining production process
Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.A classification early warning method of rock burst based on hourly microseismic data is proposed, which can be combined with the on‐site production process to provide more timely warning. Abstract Microseismic (MS) events have been reported in nearly every coal mining country, which could well lead to rock burst in underground coal mines.

Dung Beetles: From Ecosystem Engineers to Invasive Species-Dataset
, 2023 The dataset on Excel spreadsheet is abundance of native and exotic dung beetles sampled across three seasons (Autumn, spring and summer) and by using native (kangaroo) and exotic (cattle and sheep) dung baits. The beetles were sampled in 2017 and 2018 at

Effects of an increase in population of sika deer on beetle communities in deciduous forests
ZooKeys, 2016 The overabundance of large herbivores is now recognized as a serious ecological problem. However, the resulting ecological consequences remain poorly understood.

Zebrafish inversin mutants develop scoliosis in the absence of laterality defects
Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Human mutations in INVERSIN are associated with nephronophthisis, variable penetrance of situs inversus and congenital heart disease. Inversin has been shown to localize to cilia and many of the patient phenotypes are attributed to disrupted cilia function.

Ecography, EarlyView.Latitudinal diversity gradients (LDGs) arise from the interplay of historical, ecological, and evolutionary processes, yet these drivers may differ across landforms. Mountains, with steep elevational and climatic gradients, often sustain distinct diversity dynamics compared with adjacent lowlands, where vertical climatic gradients are weak and human ...
