متن کاملHow do parasites affect fish behaviour?
For most people in their right mind, parasites are disgusting little creatures. The mention of them evokes images of tiny crawlers entering the body of innocent victims by devious means, encrusting themselves within various organs (often with very unpleasant effects), living off their host’s tissues, and then exiting the body, sometimes through scatological avenues, leaving behind hosts that ar...
متن کاملHow urbanization affect employment and social interactions
We develop a model where the unemployed workers in the city can find a job either directly or through weak or strong ties. We show that, in denser areas, individuals choose to interact with more people and meet more random encounters (weak ties) than in sparsely populated areas. We also demonstrate that, for a low urbanization level, there is a unique steady-state equilibrium where workers do n...
متن کاملHow binary interactions affect stellar population synthesis
The single star-stellar population (ss-SSP) models are usually used for stellar population studies. However, there are more than 50% stars that are in binaries and evolve differently from single stars. This suggests when we model the stellar populations of galaxies and star clusters, the effects of binary interactions should be considered. Although a few works tried to model stellar populations...
متن کاملParasites as predators: unifying natural enemy ecology.
Parasitism and predation have long been considered analogous interactions. Yet by and large, ecologists continue to study parasite-host and predator-prey ecology separately. Here we discuss strengths and shortcomings of the parasite-as-predator analogy and its potential to provide new insights into both fields. Developments in predator-prey ecology, such as temporal risk allocation and associat...
