Ecohydrological monitoring of the river habitat quality [PDF]

open access: yesGeografie, 2004
Complex ecohydrological methods are of principal significance when evaluating the state of water ecosystems and they give also decisive information for their restoration. New approaches in the evaluation allow a broader view at the water ecosystem. The ecohydrological state of a stream is determined by a set of hydromorphological characteristics of the

Habitat selection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Habitat selection is the behavioural process determining the distribution of individuals among habitats varying in quality, thus affecting individual fitness and population growth.

Adult Sex Ratio as a Demographic Feedback Linking Mating Systems, Parental Care, and Evolution

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Breeding systems are some of the most diverse social behavior, and our team is investigation the evolutionary causes of this diversity. This review summarises our research carried out at the University of Bath. We argue that demographic components of wild populations, especially the adult sex ratio, plays a key role driving breeding system variation ...

Integration of technologies for understanding the functional relationship between reef habitat and fish growth and production [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Functional linkage between reef habitat quality and fish growth and production has remained elusive. Most current research is focused on correlative relationships between a general habitat type and presence/absence of a species, an index of species ...

How AI Shapes the Future Landscape of Sustainable Building Design With Climate Change Challenges?

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This review examines how artificial intelligence reshapes sustainable building design faced with climate change challenges. The authors synthesize existing studies to demonstrate AI's transformative potential across design lifecycle phases from climate‐aware form generation to performance optimization.

Arthropod prey and diets of woodland migrants are similar between natural riparian woodlands and anthropogenic woodlots in the northern prairie region

open access: yesAvian Conservation and Ecology, 2022
Migration is an energetically expensive activity with important links to population dynamics of migratory birds. Identification of high-quality stopover habitat to support migratory refueling is, therefore, important for woodland migrant conservation ...

Manipulating habitat quality to manage vertebrate pests [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Vertebrate Pest Conference, 1998
Author(s): Van Vuren, Dirk | Abstract: Wildlife damage management has often emphasized density reduction through lethal means. In addition to facing increasing regulatory and social restrictions, this approach also faces ecological problems; density reduction without a concomitant decrease in carrying capacity may only stimulate density-dependent ...

An integrated approach for predicting the fate of reintroduced populations : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Science in Conservation Biology at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
I provide a comprehensive account of the fate of a reintroduced population of North Island robins (Petroica longipes) at Tawharanui Regional Park, a predator-free peninsular site in the Auckland Region.

A Statistical Mechanics Model to Decode Tissue Crosstalk During Graft Formation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We introduce a statistical mechanics framework to decode the genomic crosstalk governing plant grafting. By integrating evolutionary game theory with transcriptomics, we reconstruct idopNetworks (informative, dynamic, omnidirectional, and personalized networks) that map scion–rootstock interactions.

East Kingston Buffer Outreach, CTAP Program [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Rockingham Planning Commission worked with the East Kingston Conservation Commission to identify buffer areas on the Pheasant Run conservation property, install buffer boundary markers and interpretive signage for entrances, buffers and wetlands on the ...
