Recovering Alternative Presentation Models of a Web Page with VAQUITA [PDF]

, 2002
VAQUITA allows developers to reverse engineer a presentation model of a web page according to multiple reverse engineering options. The alternative models offered by these options not only widen the spectrum of possible presentation models but also encourage developers in exploring multiple reverse engineering strategies.

Stable isotopes of carbon (δ13C) and oxygen (δ18O) from vaquita (Phocoena sinus) bones as indicators of habitat use in the Upper Gulf of California

Frontiers in Conservation Science
The vaquita (Phocoena sinus) is an endemic species of the Upper Gulf of California (UGC), which is in a critical state of extinction. Bycatch has been considered the main factor leading to its potential extinction; however, the impact of the damming of ...

Quiet Signals of Burmeister's Porpoises (Phocoena spinipinnis) Recorded in Chile and Peru

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Burmeister's porpoises are cryptic and challenging to detect visually. More information on their acoustic signals could facilitate the use of passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) and help to better understand their ecology. Here, clicks were recorded from two different Burmeister's porpoise populations, one in Chile and the other in Peru, using a

Using citizen science as a research prioritization tool to detect co‐occurrences of the invasive species Harmonia axyridis

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 2, Page 452-459, March 2026.
We studied co‐occurrences and potential novel interactions between the invasive ladybird Harmonia axyridis and local biota (plants, arthropods and fungi) across Argentina using citizen science records. We detected co‐occurrences (mainly Asteracea and Aphididae) and previously unreported interactions (predation, parasitism, interspecific mating and ...

Exploring Marine Mammal Cognition as a Conservation Tool

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Cognition is an animal's real‐time adaptation system for responding to change. Rapid environmental change, often anthropogenic, is expanding the range and severity of challenges confronting wild animals. Effective conservation requires a multifaceted approach that includes animals' capacities.
