Integrating Functional and Phylogenetic Diversity to Assess Bird Community Assembly Along the Major Rivers of Hainan Island, South China. [PDF]
Bird communities within rivers were characterized by an overall slight clustering. Altitude and the human influence index were identified as the main factors driving bird community assembly within the three major rivers of Hainan Island. This study demonstrates the importance of integrating functional and phylogenetic diversity.

On maximally inflected hyperbolic curves [PDF]
In this note we study the distribution of real inflection points among the ovals of a real non-singular hyperbolic curve of even degree. Using Hilbert's method we show that for any integers $d$ and $r$ such that $4\leq r \leq 2d^2-2d$, there is a non ...

Consequences of ocean scale hypoxia constrained habitat for tropical pelagic fishes [PDF]
Large areas of cold hypoxic water occur as distinct strata in the eastern tropical Pacific and Atlantic oceans as a result of high productivity initiated by intense nutrient upwelling.
