Network topology drives population temporal variability in experimental habitat networks

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
Habitat patches connected by dispersal pathways form habitat networks. We explored how network topology affects population outcomes in laboratory experiments using a model species (Daphnia carinata). Central habitat nodes in complex lattice networks exhibited lower temporal variability in population sizes, suggesting they support more stable ...

Integrating sustainable hunting in biodiversity protection in Central Africa: hot spots, weak spots, and strong spots.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Wild animals are a primary source of protein (bushmeat) for people living in or near tropical forests. Ideally, the effect of bushmeat harvests should be monitored closely by making regular estimates of offtake rate and size of stock available for ...

Properties of starspots on CoRoT-2

open access: yes, 2009
As a planet eclipses its parent star, a dark spot on the surface of the star may be occulted, causing a detectable variation in the light curve. A total of 77 consecutive transit light curves of CoRoT-2 were observed with a high temporal resolution of 32

Geographic variation in walking activity in the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
This study examined whether there is geographic variation in field populations, focusing on the moving activity in the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum. Results showed significant differences in moving activity among field populations but no correlation with latitude or meteorological factors.

2–4 mm diameter hypo/depigmented dermal spots: ? Objective sign of somatic origin pain

open access: yesIndian Journal of Pain, 2018
It is known that somatic nerves are affected by pathological changes occurring in the corresponding intervertebral discs. However, there is as yet no serological test or biomarker to diagnose disc pathology.

Central retinal artery occlusion without cherry-red spots

open access: yesBMC Ophthalmology, 2023
Background Cherry-red spots are a very important sign for the clinical diagnosis of central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO). We retrospectively summarized the clinical manifestations of CRAO and analysed the causes and characteristics of CRAO without ...

In-Situ Particle Acceleration in Extragalactic Radio Hot Spots: Observations Meet Expectations

open access: yes, 2003
We discuss, in terms of particle acceleration, the results from optical VLT observations of hot spots associated with radio galaxies. On the basis of observational and theoretical grounds, it is shown that: 1. relatively low radio-radio power hot spots

Circularly polarized localized near-field radiation at the nanoscale [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
A novel nano-antenna configuration is suggested to achieve circularly polarized optical spots beyond the diffraction limit.

Moving in the Dark: Enlightening the Spatial Population Ecology of European Cave Salamanders

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
We assessed individual interactions, movement ecology and activity patterns of a subterranean population of Speleomantes strinatii, applying spatial capture–recapture modeling to a photographic dataset of 104 individuals. ABSTRACT Space use and movement are fundamental aspects of organisms' ecology, mirroring individual fitness, behavior, and life ...
