Mathematical models to describe fixation disparity curves
Abstract Purpose This study developed mathematical models to describe the four classical types of Fixation Disparity Curves (FDCs), addressing the limitations of existing generalised polynomial fits. These models provide an objective framework for analysing FDCs, with the goal of improving the diagnosis and management of binocular vision disorders ...

The geography of connectivity shapes plant endemism hotspots
The high biodiversity in mountains is attributed to species accumulation from dispersal, high habitat heterogeneity and local speciation. Landscape connectivity thereby influences colonization and speciation processes, making its net effect on biodiversity challenging to understand.

"Even as myself, my very own incontrovertible, unexceptional self, I feel I am disguised" : mimicry, masquerade, and the quest for hybridity in the fiction of Salman Rushdie : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in English at Massey University [PDF]
Salman Rushdie's fiction delineates the author's struggle toward an ideal of hybridity that encompasses both individual and nation. The emblematic figure of the migrant plays a large role in Rushdie's oeuvre, demonstrating the process of translation from

Abstract The Byzantine emperor Alexios I's 1095 embassy to Pope Urban II has been characterized in three different ways: as a request for troops that inadvertently triggered the First Crusade, as a manipulation of western reverence for the Holy Sepulchre and as active Byzantine–papal collaboration.

Environment and evolutionary history shape phylogenetic turnover in European tetrapods
Phylogenetic turnover measures the evolutionary distance between species assemblages. Here, Saladin et al. analyze the phylogenetic turnover of European tetrapods after controlling for geographic distance and show greater roles of environment in recent ...

Third minima in actinides - do they exist?
We study the existence of third, hyperdeformed minima in a number of even-even Th, U and Pu nuclei using the Woods-Saxon microscopic-macroscopic model that very well reproduces first and second minima and fission barriers in actinides.

Molecular mechanisms of Eda‐mediated adaptation to freshwater in threespine stickleback
Abstract A main goal of evolutionary biology is to understand the genetic basis of adaptive evolution. Although the genes that underlie some adaptive phenotypes are now known, the molecular pathways and regulatory mechanisms mediating the phenotypic effects of those genes often remain a black box.
