Demographic censuses of several years' duration in two populations of each species yielded estimates of vital rates that were consistent with the life-history profile expected for a persistence niche. Rates of background survival were high and rates of fire-related mortality were low in both ...
Among the largest cats in the world, this iconic species is primarily found in India, with smaller populations in Bangladesh, Nepal, Bhutan and Myanmar. It is the most numerous tiger subspecies, yet it remains under significant threat due to habitat loss and poaching. Adult Bengals are renowned...
Urban farming is a term that is often interchanged with other concepts such as community gardening, homesteading, or subsistence farming. However, it’s important to differentiate them. Urban farming primarily aims at cultivating produce for commercial purposes, focusing on selling the yield, rather ...
Species optimumSpring ecosystems are exceptionally threatened and their conservation is often emphasized due to high levels of endemism among the groups inhabiting these ecosystems. This study includes gastropod assemblages of 36 springs situated in the northwestern part of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The aims...
Audubon’s North American birds hub is an excellent example of a content database hub format. It provides a comprehensive directory of bird species. So visitors can easily find information on the birds they’re most interested in through different filters. ...
Expertise refers to a person's depth of knowledge or skill in a particular area, while specialty is a focused field within a broader domain where one has significant expertise.
monitored areas using wave power for seabed disturbance, noise pollution, and the risk of entanglement for marine life. Another worry is the creation of electromagnetic fields around underwater cabling30, which could hamper the navigation of species such as sharks, lobsters, dolphin...
While the main source of dietary vitamin A for most species is in the non-toxic plant pigment form of β-carotene, cats lack the dioxygenase enzyme required to start the conversion of carotenoids to retinal, and therefore a dietary source of preformed vitamin A is required [3,7,33,34]. ...
A single species deletion approach from the bacterial consortia has been applied to analyze the niche of each bacterial species with ecological perspectives for estimating the impact of the disappearance of specific bacterial species on the composition of gut microflora, metabolite production, amount of ...
This kind of apomixis is not typically found in agronomically important crops, with the exception of several Citrus species and mango (Naumova 2017). Alternatively, if the maternal embryo originates from a diploid egg cell differentiated in an unreduced embryo sac, the process is defined as ...
