changing the memory cards of infrared cameras, and managing protection stations. Undaunted by the harsh working conditions and heavy tasks, Chen finds pleasure in her work even when she sometimes has to conduct surveys in places off the beaten path after taking a long trek....
Background The backbone of the eukaryotic tree of life contains taxa only found in molecular surveys, of which we still have a limited understanding. Such is the case of Picozoa, an enigmatic lineage of heterotrophic picoeukaryotes within the supergroup Archaeplastida, which has emerged as a si...
The first EOS platform Terra was launched in late 1999, primarily for morning observations over land carrying five instruments and followed by Aqua in 2002 for afternoon observations primarily over oceans with six instruments. Both have sun-synchronous, near-polar LEO circular orbits providing global ...
Recent metagenomic and virome surveys have uncovered a range of viruses in both aquatic and terrestrial environments, significantly enhancing our understanding of virome diversity28,40. However, our knowledge of viral communities in oil reservoirs is still limited. Many of the viruses recovered from t...
We examined generalized additive mixed models (GAMMs) in a full subsets approach to infer the best predictors for adult and juvenile fish density in four diverse families (Labridae, Odacidae, Pomacentridae, Serranidae), based on rapid underwater visual surveys across transects (similar to 500 m(...

In particular, large sampling surveys have not yet been used to clearly establish how the bacterial commu- nities living in these food products are structured or how selection takes place once initial contamination has occurred. The present study aimed to provide a more integrated view of the ...
determine the rate of recovery of land that it is replanting near its German Creek mine in Queensland. Ant surveys also have been used with mine.site recovery projects in Africa and Brazil,where warm cpmates encourage dense and perse ant poppations.“We found it worked extremely well there....
performed for other countries, however census data is not easily accessible for those countries. Furthermore, ongoing agricultural census surveys in other parts of the basin will be extremely valuable for the research and policy makers. Ecological data ...
(2018) and surveys by the authors. 2.2. Data types, sources and LULC classification The spatial and temporal dynamics of the different LULC classes were examined by using remote- sensing data (aerial photographs, scale 1: 50,000, and satellite images with a resolution of 0.5–3.2 m) ...
