The first of these was the case of Ruth Ellis who was hanged for shooting her lover in what was generally regarded as a crime of passion. The second was hanged for murders which, it was later proved, had been committed by someone else. ...
aPopulation in this research consisted of all USA firms during period of 1971 to 2003 in which following previous studies, financing and welfare firms were excluded from the sample. 跟随的早先研究、财务和福利救济企业从样品被排除的人口在这研究包括了所有美国企业在1971年的期间到2003年。[translate]...
We conducted a dynamic analysis in the conterminous US to assess the coevolution of humans and water resources from 1790 to 2010. Here we show that humans moved closer to major rivers in pre-industrial periods but have moved farther from major rivers after 1870, demonstrating the dynamics of ...
The impact of domestication on genomes has been mainly studied in annual crops and seldom investigated in fruit tree crops13. The long juvenile phases, large effective population sizes and high outcrossing rates often found in trees may have limited the loss of genetic diversity and the impact of...
A significant theme in demographic studies has been the population redistribution patterns among metropolitan centers, non-metropolitan areas surrounding them, and the so-called hinterlands beyond. Virtually all of this research has used the traditional

The disappearance of many North American megafauna at the end of the Pleistocene is a contentious topic. While the proposed causes for megafaunal extinction are varied, most researchers fall into three broad camps emphasizing human overhunting, climate c
We used mark–recapture models to estimate age-specific survival, recruitment, population size, and encounter probability of Laysan Albatrosses (Phoebastria immutabilis) using a 14-yr dataset from Oahu, Hawaii, USA. We also measured the long-term effect of avian pox virus (Poxvirus avium) on...
. We simulate drift in age-structured populations to explore the sensitivity of different population ‘types’ to generation time and contrast our results with predictions based purely on estimates ofNe. We conclude that estimates ofNedo not always accurately predict the rates of drift between ...
Although ageing is strongly associated with cognitive decline, a wide range of cognitive ability is observed in older populations with varying rates of change across different cognitive domains. Cognitive function was measured as part of the third health
