Age ratio in groups of a social ungulate affects epizoochorous dispersal and diaspore exchanges

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 9, September 2026.
Animal‐mediated seed dispersal is a key process in plant population dynamics, species distribution and ecosystem functioning. As long‐distance dispersal agents, ungulates help to maintain native plant populations facing abiotic changes in their habitat and habitat fragmentation or habitat loss.

Analysis of wire ropes with internal wire rope cores

, 1983
Stresses in the individual wires of complex wire rope are determined for rope constructions having an internal-wire-rope core (IWRC). The ropes may be pulled, twisted, and bent over a sheave or drum.
