Prior residence effect in wintering male Eurasian siskins is not related to resource holding power
Behavioral Ecology and Sociobiology, 2015Animals competing for resources follow a general rule for which prior residents usually win contests over intruders. This prior residence effect might arise because animals possess a genetically fixed convention so that ‘residents always win’ (i.e. an uncorrelated asymmetry), because residents have a higher resource holding power (RHP) than intruders ...

The value of holding scarce wind resource—A cause of overinvestment in wind power capacity in China
Energy Policy, 2013Abstract China's wind power capacity has increased dramatically in recent years, but about 30% of the installed capacity sits idle, so overinvestment in wind power capacity seems to be a serious problem. This paper explores reasons for the overinvestment. The economic analysis shows that, given uncertain future policy on wind power, it is optimal for

La plupart des travaux theoriques consacres aux effets des asymetries de benefices (payoff) s'interessent au comportement de combat et a la dominance. En general, ces etudes utilisent des techniques relatives a la theorie des jeux pour predire le resultat d'une rencontre lorsque les opposants different en ce qui concerne l'expectation de la valeur et ...

The effect of resource-holding power (RHP) and prior residency asymmetries on fight outcome and subsequent seasonal copulatory success was analyzed for fights between marked male northern elephant seals (Mirounga angustirostris). RHP asymmetries were measured as differences in estimated mass and prior residency asymmetries were measured as differences ...

Inter-male contests in relation to asymmetries in their pairing status and resource holding power were studied in a population of the Scarlet rosefinch. Since males in this species do not defend territories before nest building, and since most males have full adult plumage, possession of territory and age are unlikely to be used as cues in the ...

The influence of sublethal chronic dietary copper (Cu) exposure on the dominant-subordinate relationship between pairs of juvenile rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) was examined. Fish were fed either a normal (11 mg Cu kg(-1) food) or Cu-contaminated (721 mg Cu kg(-1) food) diet for 8 wk.

The paper made unary linear regression and structure deviation degree analyses with the data of Shanxi province in China from 1992 to 2010. The results show that when the coal output increases by 1% , the employment will increase by 1.202%. And the structure deviation degree in the coal industry fell from-0.11 to-0.56 between 1992 and 2001, then it ...
