The saltmarsh vegetation of the lower Uilkraals River
Bothalia: African Biodiversity & Conservation, 1994 Approximately 40 ha of saltmarsh exist around the Uilkraals River. The distribution patterns of species in these marshes are described and compared with patterns found in other marshes in the Western Cape.

Vertebrate Natural History Notes from Arkansas, 2017 [PDF]
, 2017 Because meaningful observations of natural history are not always part of larger studies, important pieces of information often are unreported. Small details, however, can fills gaps in understanding and also lead to interesting questions about ...

Time-dependent species sensitivity distributions [PDF]
Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 2012 AbstractTime is a central component of toxicity assessments. However, current ecotoxicological practice marginalizes time in concentration–response (C-R) modeling and species sensitivity distribution (SSD) analyses. For C-R models, time is invariably fixed, and toxicity measures are estimated from a function fitted to the data at that time.

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)
