Bird communities and vegetation on Swedish wet meadows [PDF]

, 2006
Wet meadows in Sweden currently depend on management by grazing to maintain habitats for various breeding and migrating birds. However, due to ceased cattle farming management by mowing could be an option for restoration and conservation of wet meadows ...

Dynamic Evolution‐Controlled Parabolic‐Shaped Microstructures for Ultra‐Black Surface via Self‐Assembled Microsphere Mask Etching

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A robust, substrate‐independent fabrication approach overcomes the spectral and geometric limitations of traditional stray‐light suppression. By combining ink spray‐coating with self‐assembled microsphere mask etching, this method produces parabolic‐shaped microstructures on diverse planar and curved engineering components.

Effect of calcium salts of fatty acids on the nutritive value of diets, feeding behavior, and serum blood parameters of lactating Saanen goats grazing on stargrass

Revista Brasileira de Zootecnia
The objective of this study was to determine effects of the addition of calcium salts of fatty acids (CSFA) to the concentrate on the intake and digestibility of dry matter and nutrients and the grazing behavior of lactating Saanen goats.

Income Earning Potential versus Consumptive Amenities in Determining Ranchland Values

The relative importance of income earning potential versus consumptive values in setting ranchland prices is examined using a truncated hedonic model. The market value of New Mexico ranches is related to annual income earning potential and other ranch ...

Dual‐Mode Nanoporous SiO2 Memristors with Coexisting Volatile and Nonvolatile Dynamics for Reservoir Computing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A nanoporous SiO2 memristor enabling reconfigurable volatile and non‐volatile switching within a single device is demonstrated. The dual‐mode functionality supports both physical reservoir dynamics and synaptic weight storage, allowing unified hardware implementation of reservoir computing for temporal information processing, including image and ...

Non‐Equilibrium Synthesis of Whitlockite Assisted by Localized H2O Vapor Pressure

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A carbon substrate acts as a microheater during intense pulsed light irradiation, enabling rapid heating and cooling for whitlockite formation. In contrast to conventional white ceramic synthesis with weak photothermal response, this platform concentrates thermal energy locally and promotes phase‐selective crystallization under ultrafast ...

Morphological and physiological responses of seagrasses (Alismatales) to grazers (Testudines: Cheloniidae) and the role of these responses as grazing patch abandonment cues

Revista de Biología Tropical, 2014
Green sea turtles, Chelonia mydas, are grazers influencing the distribution of seagrass within shallow coastal ecosystems, yet the drivers behind C. mydas patch use within seagrass beds are largely unknown.

Grazing Behavior of Beef Steers Grazing Endophyte-Infected, Endophyte-Free, and Novel Endophyte Infected Tall Fescue, and Lakota Prairie Grass

, 2005
Endophyte infected Tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) is the most dominant grass used for pasture in the Southeastern U.S. As a result, fescue toxicosis is a major concern.

Dual‐Wavelength Control of Charge Accumulation in Rubrene Microcrystals with Anisotropic Conductivity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Rubrene microcrystals, forming two distinct sector types, are investigated using photoemission electron spectroscopy. The two sectors exhibit a built‐in charge landscape, arising from anisotropic conductivities. Upon excitation with UV light, the diamond‐shaped sectors accumulate significant charge, whereas the triangular sectors remain essentially ...

Observing grazing patterns with collar-mounted accelerometers and spatial data

Frontiers in Animal Science
In pasture-based dairy farming, animal behavior data can improve data-driven pasture management. Information on the grazing behavior of dairy cows can be retrieved from sensor-based data.
