Influence of soil granulometry on average body size in soil ant assemblages: implications for bioindication

open access: yesPerspectives in Ecology and Conservation, 2017
Soil granulometric composition can impose constraints on ant species living in ground habitats, being an important factor in defining the habitat templet, which describes how certain animal life histories, including the trait of body size, can be ...

Successive local and successive global omniscience [PDF]

open access: yes2017 IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory (ISIT), 2017
This paper considers two generalizations of the cooperative data exchange problem, referred to as the successive local omniscience (SLO) and the successive global omniscience (SGO). The users are divided into $\ell$ nested sub-groups. Each user initially knows a subset of packets in a ground set $X$ of size $k$, and all users wish to learn all packets ...

Annual and Seasonal Changes in the Structure of Litter-Dwelling Ant Assemblages (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) in Atlantic Semideciduous Forests

open access: yesPsyche: A Journal of Entomology, 2012
We surveyed ant fauna in the leaf litter in an Atlantic Semideciduous forest in the State Park of Rio Doce (PERD). The work aimed to produce basic information about habitat effects on diversity, as well as about how the ant fauna in a such buffered ...

Successful Fathers Sire Successful Sons [PDF]

open access: yesEvolution, 1999
The theory of sexual selection holds a central role in evolutionary biology. Its key assumption is the heritability of traits associated with reproductive success. Strong indirect evidence supporting this assumption comes from the numerous studies that have identified heritable traits associated with mating success. However, there remain only a handful

Educational Attainment: Success to the Successful

open access: yesHigher Learning Research Communications, 2013
<p>Systems archetypes are patterns of structure found in systems that are helpful in understanding some of the dynamics within them. The intent was to examine educational attainment data using the success-to-the-successful archetype as a model to see if it helps to explain the inequality observed in the data.
