International Journal of ZoologyThe native savannas of eastern Colombia cover about six percent of the Neotropical savannas. Within these 17 million hectares, the current composition of nonflying mammals evidenced colonization from Andean, Guyanese, and Amazonian speciation centers and

Detecting mass mortality events in wildlife populations. [PDF]
Conserv BiolAbstract Reports in the literature of mass mortality events (MMEs) involving diverse animal taxa are increasing. Yet, many likely go unobserved due to imperfect detection and infrequent sampling. MMEs involving small, cryptic species, for instance, can be difficult to detect even during the event, and degradation and scavenging of carcasses can make ...

Inhibitor-induced dimerization mediates lufotrelvir resistance in mutants of SARS-CoV-2 3C-like protease. [PDF]
Protein SciAbstract The emergence of SARS‐CoV‐2 and other lethal coronaviruses has prompted extensive research into targeted antiviral treatments, particularly focusing on the viral 3C‐like protease (3CLpro) due to its essential role for viral replication. However, the rise of drug resistance mutations poses threats to public health and underscores the need to ...

Scalar Field Evolution at Background and Perturbation Levels for a Broad Class of Potentials
Fortschritte der Physik, Volume 71, Issue 10-11, November 2023., 2023 Abstract In this paper, a non‐interacting scalar field cosmology with an arbitrary potential using the f‐deviser method that relies on the differentiability properties of the potential is investigated. Using this alternative mathematical approach, a unified dynamical system analysis at a scalar field's background and perturbation levels with arbitrary ...

Identifying socioeconomic and biophysical factors driving forest loss in protected areas
Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 4, August 2023., 2023 Abstract Protected areas (PAs) are a commonly used strategy to confront forest conversion and biodiversity loss. Although determining drivers of forest loss is central to conservation success, understanding of them is limited by conventional modeling assumptions.

Ecohydrology, Volume 16, Issue 4, June 2023., 2023 Abstract The páramos are Neotropical alpine tundra‐like ecosystems that play a crucial role as biodiversity hotspots and also act as water sources for the inter‐Andean regions and cities. Improving our understanding of hydrological processes, here evapotranspiration, is crucial, especially in the context of global changes.

Evenness mediates the global relationship between forest productivity and richness
Journal of Ecology, Volume 111, Issue 6, Page 1308-1326, June 2023., 2023 Collectively, these results demonstrate that evenness is an integral component of the relationship between biodiversity and productivity, and that the attenuating effect of richness on forest productivity might be partly explained by low evenness in speciose communities.

Genómica en la producción animal
Revista Colombiana de Ciencia Animal Recia, 2013 El mejoramiento genético evalúa y utiliza la variación genética para mantener y mejorar cualitativa y cuantitativamente la producción animal. La identificación de animales con altos méritos genéticos se dificulta por el hecho que la mayoría de las ...

Integración de analogías en la modelación científica
Revista Colombiana de Filosofía de la Ciencia, 2018 La discusión sobre modelación científica se ha centrado en la relación representacional entre el modelo, como producto terminado, y un supuesto sistema diana en el mundo. Esta aproximación tiene algunos problemas para dar cuenta de procesos de modelación
