Perch Associated Expression of Phenotypic Plasticity in Limb Development and Sprint Speed in Agamid Lizard Calotes versicolor: A Laboratory Study [PDF]
, 2018 New born hatchlings of Calotes versicolor were reared in terrarium having narrow or wide perches for a period of 4-month and their snout vent length (SVL), tail, fore and hindlimb lengths were measured at monthly intervals.

Acta Botânica Brasílica, 2011 Mecanismos de dispersão de diásporos e recrutamento de plântulas evitam a competição intra-específica e possibilitam a colonização de novos ambientes. Em áreas de transição entre florestas e vegetação campestre esses processos não são aleatórios, e sim ...

Sunshine Duration in Brazil From Meteosat (1983–2020): Climatology, Variability and Long‐Term Trends
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Using nearly four decades of Meteosat satellite data (1983–2020), this study presents a country‐wide climatology of sunshine duration (SDU) in Brazil. The results reveal marked regional contrasts, dominant modes of variability, and significant long‐term trends, providing new information on the most relevant meteorological systems that influence SDU and

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.Abstract The Burren uplands in western Ireland form one of the most extensive and best‐preserved examples of glacio‐karst in Europe. Subsumed by the Irish ice sheet during the Late Pleistocene, granite erratic boulders and in situ silica veins in the limestone bedrock provide a rare opportunity to reconstruct the timing and rate of deglaciation ...

Effects of Perches on Behavior, Heart Rate, Body Temperature and Locomotor Activity of Caged Hens
The Journal of Poultry Science, 2004 This study was carried out to investigate the behavior and physiological conditions of hens housed in cages with or without perches. The physiological parameters investigated were heart rate (HR), body temperature (BT) and locomotor activity (LA) using ...

Watch out where you sleep: nocturnal sleeping behaviour of Bay Island lizards [PDF]
PeerJ, 2016 Sleeping exposes lizards to predation. Therefore, sleeping strategies must be directed towards avoiding predation and might vary among syntopic species.

Towards animal oriented rearing methods in organic production systems [PDF]
, 2006 One of the foundations of organic animal production systems is that animals are kept in a more natural way. In terms of housing, animals get more space, have access to outside areas and are fed organic rations.

Lipid correction of hydrogen stable isotope ratios in fish
Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract Lipids are known to affect stable isotope ratio of organisms, especially δ13C values, and simple arithmetic lipid‐correction procedures have been developed based on the carbon to nitrogen ratio (C : N) that is a proxy for lipid content. Equivalent issues will likely arise with the increasing use of hydrogen isotopes in ecology, but as yet no ...
