From 2008 to 2017, we recorded eight instances of opportunistic bird predation from mist nets (MNs) in a matrix mixing restored forest and fragments of semideciduous seasonal forest in southeastern Brazil, three times (37.5%) by exotic primates and five times (62.5%) by birds of prey. ...
In a small-scale case study of the Macabu River watershed in Brazil, we investigated and compared a rapid field assessment of stream ecological integrity with the stakeholders' local environmental perceptions as revealed through interviews. This comparison indicates that the farmers tended to ...
The stabilities of vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) and galanin mRNAs were examined in a human neuroblastoma cell line (NBFL) treated with agents that alter second-messenger pathways. VIP and galanin mRNA stabilities were estimated by the decay of steady-state levels of transcripts following ...
