The unpredictably eruptive dynamics of spruce budworm populations in eastern Canada
Population Ecology, EarlyView.We examine historical population data for spruce budworm from several locations through the period 1930–1997, and use density‐dependent recruitment curves to test whether the pattern of population growth over time is more consistent with Royama's (1984; Ecological Monographs 54:429–462) linear R(t) model of harmonic oscillation at Green River New ...

Scaling of resistivities and guided vortex motion in MgB2 thin films
, 2007 Longitudinal and transverse voltages have been measured on thin films of MgB2 with different superconducting transition widths. The study has been performed in zero and non-zero external magnetic fields.

Network topology drives population temporal variability in experimental habitat networks
Population 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 ...

Excitation of voltage oscillations in an induction voltage adder [PDF]
Physical Review Special Topics - Accelerators and Beams, 2009 The induction voltage adder is an accelerator architecture used in recent designs of pulsed-power driven x-ray radiographic systems such as Sandia National Laboratories’ Radiographic Integrated Test Stand (RITS), the Atomic Weapons Establishment’s planned Hydrus Facility, and the Naval Research Laboratory’s Mercury.

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

Intrinsic Gating Properties of a Cloned G Protein-activated Inward Rectifier K^+ Channel [PDF]
, 1995 The voltage-, time-, and K^+-dependent properties of a G protein-activated inwardly rectifying K^+ channel (GIRK1/KGA/Kir3.1) cloned from rat atrium were studied in Xenopus oocytes under two-electrode voltage clamp. During maintained G protein activation

Low frequency voltage clamp: recording of voltage transients at constant average command voltage [PDF]
Journal of Neuroscience Methods, 2000 We implemented a simple feedback system that modifies the conventional current clamp mode of a patch clamp amplifier so that transient potentials, such as action potentials and synaptic potentials, can be measured as in the usual current clamp, while the average membrane potential is kept constant at a value chosen by the user.

occumb: An R package for site occupancy modeling of eDNA metabarcoding data
Population Ecology, EarlyView.This study introduces a new R package, occumb, for the convenient application of site occupancy modeling using environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding data. We outline a data analysis workflow, including data setup, model fitting, model assessment, and comparison of potential study settings based on model predictions, all of which can be performed using
