Review: Seasonal differences in the physiology of wild northern ruminants
Animal, 2020 Ruminants living in seasonal environments face a two-fold challenge during winter. The energetic cost of maintaining a high body temperature is higher at lower ambient temperatures, and this is compounded by poor availability and quality of feed.

The biology of organ size determination [PDF]
Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, 2008 The mechanisms that control the size of cells, organs, and organisms have long interested biologists, and are also important in malignant progression. Despite this, basic features of in vivo growth control – the level at which regulation is exerted and the degree to which size is controlled ...

Electrochemical Sizing of Organic Nanoparticles
Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 2013 The size of organic nanoparticles (NPs) can be electrochemically determined by Faradaic charge transfer when nanoparticles strike an electrode. Indigo NPs were used as a model (see distribution of the NP diameter). This strategy could be used for monitoring the size of a wide range of organic nanoparticles.
