Abstract In his Idea for a Universal History with a Cosmopolitan Aim Kant suggests that we should tell the story of the development of reason and so of morality as the result of blind (even nasty) historical processes that have mature reason and morality as their telos.

Prokaryotes and Their Habitats
1981Prokaryotes are well recognized as essential members of the biosphere. They inhabit all possible locations for life to exist, from those offering ideal conditions for growth and reproduction to those representing extreme environments at the borderline of abiotic conditions.

Habitat fragmentation versus fragmented habitats
Biodiversity and Conservation, 2012Habitats often show similar present structuring, but contrasting histories: habitats occur naturally fragmented due to abiotic or biotic factors over long time periods, but may also have become fragmented only recently through transformation from interconnected to highly fragmented habitats within short time periods. Species and populations being faced

Ocean Habitats as Analogs for Space Habitats
SAE Technical Paper Series, 1996<div class="htmlview paragraph">Since the earliest days of manned space ventures, the search for authentic analogs of space exploration have been investigated. The primary purpose for these analogs has been to reduce risk and cost. There are many similarities between operational space habitats and ocean habitats and these can be significantly ...

From hazard to habitat (or hazardous habitat)
Progress in Physical Geography: Earth and Environment, 2013Rocky Flats (RF) is a former nuclear weapons manufacturing complex in Colorado, 26 km northwest of downwind Denver, at the eastern base of the Rocky Mountains’ Front Range. At RF, between 1952 and 1989, the Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) and its successors manufactured plutonium triggers.

Habitat imprinting and natal habitat preference induction
2019In this article, what is currently understood about the role that early experience has in the formation of habitat preferences is reviewed. The umbrella concept, Natal Habitat Preference Induction (NHPI), which includes a number of effects that natal experience has on later habitat preferences, is discussed.

Habitat destruction, habitat restoration and eigenvector–eigenvalue relations
Mathematical Biosciences, 2003According to metapopulation theory, the capacity of a habitat patch network to support the persistence of a species is measured by the metapopulation capacity of the patch network. Mathematically, metapopulation capacity is given by the leading eigenvalue lambda(M) of an appropriately constructed non-negative n x n matrix M, where n is the number of ...

Habitat, Habitat Conditions and Their Study Methods
1993When describing meiofauna habitats, grain size is a key factor which directly determines spatial and structural conditions, and indirectly determines the physical and chemical milieu of the sediment. Poorly sorted sediment particles (e.g. sand mixed with gravel and silt) become packed tighter and the interstitial pore volume is often reduced to only 20%
