An experiment was conducted to evaluate the influence of forest fuels reduction on diet quality, botanical composition, relative preference, and foraging efficiency of beef cattle grazing at different stocking rates. A split plot factorial design was used, with whole plots (3 ha) being fuel reduced or no treatment (control), and...

An accurate assessment of leaching losses in the vadose zone requires measurement of both solute and water flux to compute flux concentrations (C[subscript F]). Leachate collected at a depth of 1.2 m in 32 passive capillary samplers (PCAPS), which sample soil-pore water continuously at tensions of 0–50 cm H₂O was...

Abstract— This study describes the sound produced by a
hydrokinetic turbine operating in a riverine environment near
Iguigig, AK (USA). Drifting spar buoys equipped with
hydrophones and GPS loggers were used to characterize
temporal and spatial variability in turbine sound over a range of
turbine operating conditions. Because of the...
CD8⁺ T cells are responsible for killing cells of the body that have become infected or oncogenically transformed. In order to do so, effector CD8⁺ T cells must recognize their cognate antigenic peptide bound to a MHC class I molecule that has been directly presented by the target cell. Due...
Diversité et distribution des poissons anostomoides (Teleostei, Characiformes) dans les Guyanes.
Cinquante-six espèces, soit approximativement 20% des Characiformes de la superfamille des Anostomidea (familles
des Anostomidae, Chilodontidae, Curimatidae et Prochilodontidae), fréquentent les eaux douces de la Guyane française, du
Guyana et du Suriname bien que ces régions ne recouvrent qu’environ...
Adaptive governance is an emergent form of environmental governance that is increasingly called upon by scholars and
practitioners to coordinate resource management regimes in the face of the complexity and uncertainty associated with rapid
environmental change. Although the term “adaptive governance” is not exclusively applied to the governance of social-ecological...
