Where did the finch go? Insights from radio telemetry of the medium ground finch (Geospiza fortis). [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2022 Movement patterns and habitat selection of animals have important implications for ecology and evolution. Darwin's finches are a classic model system for ecological and evolutionary studies, yet their spatial ecology remains poorly studied due to concerns about the use of telemetry. In this paper, we test the feasibility of radio‐tracking medium ground

Seizing the Means of Circulation: Choke Points and Logistical Resistance in Coco Solo, Panama
Antipode, Volume 55, Issue 5, Page 1368-1389, September 2023., 2023 Abstract Recent studies of logistics have embraced the “choke point” thesis: the notion that a strategically positioned group of workers or insurgents can exercise outsize power by disrupting the circulation of goods through the supply chain. This article examines this proposition through the case of Coco Solo, Panama, an informal community situated at

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 5, Issue 4, Page 581-599, July 2023., 2023 Mexico's extraordinary tree diversity is threatened by the increasing demand for resources because of the tenfold population growth in the last century. The conservation status of trees, and both urban and rural livelihoods, are also negatively affected by agriculture, mining and tourism.

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 175, Issue 3, May/June 2023., 2023 Abstract Olive trees shed their leaves under severe drought as a defence mechanism. Foliar drought‐induced abscission is a programmed process occurring in a differentiated cell layer at the base of the petiole. Considering the antioxidant properties of vitamin E and its interplay with lipid peroxidation‐derived jasmonates in abiotic stress responses ...

Endogenous Cytokinins in Maturing Manzanillo Olive Fruits [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1976 Cytokinin activity was found in mature black olive fruits while in green fruits the activity was markedly lower. The substances with cytokinin activity showed chromatographic properties similar to those of nucleotides. Acid hydrolysis caused a shift of the active zone in the organic phase of 1-butanol-acetic acid-water (4:1:5) from R(F) 0.1 to R(F) 0.8.

Social media posts suggest that coconut rhinoceros beetle has established in the Western hemisphere
Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 147, Issue 1, Page 19-22, February 2023., 2023 Abstract The coconut rhinoceros beetle (CRB: Oryctes rhinoceros L.) is one of the most damaging pests of coconut and oil palms in the Asia/Pacific region but has not been reported from the Western Hemisphere. Here, we report a possible establishment of CRB in Nayarit, Mexico, based on an analysis of social media reports and photographs indicating the ...

Geoscience Data Journal, Volume 10, Issue 1, Page 178-192, January 2023., 2023 Re‐examination of historical earthquakes from legacy seismic data requires reliable vectorization and correction of analog seismograms. Nowadays, computational capabilities allow the development of ad‐hoc programs to perform such analysis. In this work we use Tiitba, our own developed Python based‐software to vectorize, analyze and correct the analog ...

Atmospheric Science Letters, Volume 23, Issue 11, November 2022., 2022 It is not known if the Lightning Potential Index (LPI) can reproduce diurnal cycles of lightning over tropical regions. When tropical cyclone Bud (2018) was occurring over the adjacent Eastern Pacific Ocean, the LPI successfully reproduced the observed diurnal variability of lightning, which exhibited a strong diurnal cycle, over the Mexican tropical ...

The Plant Genome, Volume 15, Issue 3, September 2022., 2022 Abstract Genomic selection (GS) is a predictive methodology that is changing plant breeding. Genomic selection trains a statistical machine‐learning model using available phenotypic and genotypic data with which predictions are performed for individuals that were only genotyped.

Storage potential of fresh ‘Manzanillo’ olives [PDF]
California Agriculture, 1990 Ideal preprocessing storage for fresh, green ‘Manzanillo’ olives is at 41° to 45° F (5° to 7.5°C) and 90 to 95% relative humidity. Under these conditions, the olives can be stored for 6 to 8 weeks in air, or 9 to 12 weeks in a 2% oxygen atmosphere with no significant loss in quality.
