Team pursuit-evasion games are studied here with one performance
index for the team as a unit in competition with one common opponent.
Particular structures of team games are discussed after a brief introduction
of the two-player differential games. The classical calculus
of variations is used to derive the feedback strategies...
Vocalization patterns of two groups of captive Francois' langurs (Presbytis
francoisi) were studied between August 1989 and June 1990. During the 11
months of observation, 109 hours of vocalization recordings were made at Metro
Washington Park Zoo, Portland, and the San Diego Zoo, San Diego. Based on the
behavioral observations...
Vehicle dynamics evaluation is divided in two domains: ride quality and handling. The evaluation of characteristics related to both of these domains requires the knowledge of the vibrations developed by the vehicle. Vibrations can be described by acceleration, velocity or displacement (linear or angular). The inertial properties of large vehicles...
Fresh fish trade in Kribi, Cameroon is characterized by high uncertainty in a context of specific assets. Facing this uncertainty, actors have developed hybrid coordination mechanisms centered on contractual arrangements and networks. These implicit contractual arrangements involve price negotiation, delivery agreements between fishermen and buyers, as well as transactions including...
We previously developed a spatially explicit, individual-based model (IBM) evaluating the bio-economic efficiency of fishing vessel movements between regions according to the catching and targeting of different species based on the most recent high resolution spatial fishery data. The main purpose was to test the effects of alternative fishing effort...
Strigamia maritima (Myriapoda; Chilopoda) is a species from the soil-living order of geophilomorph
centipedes. The Geophilomorpha is the most speciose order of centipedes with
over a 1000 species described. They are notable for their large number of appendage bearing
segments and are being used as a laboratory model to study...

Maritime spatial planning and fishery management are likely to generate extra costs for the fisheries by constraining fishermen activity with conservation areas and new utilizations of the sea such as offshore windmill parks. Growing concerns for greener and energy efficient fisheries are also likely to alter existing fishing patterns already...
