Morphological Adaptation of River Channels to Vegetation Establishment: A Laboratory Study
Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 2019 While the scientific community has long recognized that alluvial rivers are the product of interactions between flowing water and bed material transport, it is increasingly evident that vegetation mediates these interactions and influences the stream ...

Quantitative morphology of renal cortical structures during compensatory hypertrophy [PDF]
, 1998 The compensatory hypertrophy in different renal cortical structures was studied in rats 10 and 21 days after unilateral nephrectomy (UNX). Quantitative morphological/stereological analysis revealed significant increases in total renal cortical volume ...

Body size changes in passerine birds introduced to New Zealand from the UK [PDF]
, 2013 One feature of global geographic variation in avian body sizes is that they are larger on isolated islands than on continental regions. Therefore, this study aims to assess whether there have been changes in body size following successful establishment ...

Shaping Behavior With Adaptive Morphology [PDF]
IEEE Robotics and Automation Letters, 2018 Robots that exploit their embodiment promise to be more robust, energy-efficient, and adaptable. However, the majority of systems designed in this way are only capable of exploiting their embodiment when performing a single task in a single environment.

Drought tolerance of faba bean (Vicia faba L.) can be improved by specific LED light wavelengths
Photosynthetica, 2020 A light wavelength affects both plant photomorphogenesis and stress resistance. In this study, the phenotypic plasticity (growth parameters and cuticular waxes) and physiological adaptation (photosynthetic properties and antioxidant enzyme activities) of
