While ecologists agree that there are four fundamental types of deserts, the nomenclature of these four desert biomes varies slightly from source to source. The four basic desert types are the hot-and-dry (or subtropical) desert, the semiarid (or cold-winter) desert, the coastal desert and t...
Oceanic or marine ecosystems are divided into three main categories: the deep waters, shallow waters, and the deep ocean surface. Just like in freshwater ecosystems, the plankton is the basis of the oceanic ecosystem’s food chain. In fact, the plankton and other plants that grow in marine e...
“…all too often, the risk factors for these disorders are not addressed promptly in clinical practice, leading to irreversible pathologic progression… Traditional approaches to treatment involving sequential therapy, in which agents are added only after one has failed, contribute to clinical inertia ...
1. Three steps that governments and private interests could take to protects the world’s remaining coral reefs Preventing trawler fishing boats from fishing in coral reef areas is necessary to protect them and prevent coral bleaching. Deep coral reefs that are thousands of years old are being de...
Also, we tested how acoustic indices are influenced by natural vegetation cover. We recorded environmental sounds in Atlantic Forest fragments during three months on the rainy season. Then we calculated different acoustic indices and the percentage of natural vegetation cover in different scales. Our ...
There are two main types of fatty liver disease, alcoholic fatty liver disease (AFLD) and nonal- coholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Although AFLD and NAFLD are similar in their initial morphological features, both conditions involve the same evolutive forms. Moreover, there are...
