The Aversive Effect of Electromagnetic Radiation on Foraging Bats—A Possible Means of Discouraging Bats from Approaching Wind Turbines
Large numbers of bats are killed by collisions with wind turbines and there is at present no accepted method of reducing or preventing this mortality. Following our demonstration that bat activity is reduced in the vicinity of large air traffic control and weather radars, we tested the hypothesis that an electromagnetic signal from a small portable radar can act as a deterrent to foraging bats....
متن کاملThe volume of separable states is super-doubly-exponentially small
In this note we give sharp estimates on the volume of the set of separable states on N qubits. In particular, the magnitude of the “effective radius” of that set in the sense of volume is determined up to a factor which is a (small) power of N , and thus precisely on the scale of powers of its dimension. Similar but less precise results are obtained for qudits. Additionally, one of the appendic...
متن کاملConvergence analysis for an exponentially fitted finite volume method
The paper is devoted to the convergence analysis of a well-known cell-centered Finite Volume Method (FVM) for a convection-difïusion problem in R. This FVM is based on Voronoi boxes and exponential fitting. To prove the convergence of the FVM, we use a new nonconforming PetrovGalerkin Finite Element Method (FEM) for which the System of linear équations coïncides completely with that of the FVM....
متن کاملHow Nectar-Feeding Bats Localize their Food: Echolocation Behavior of Leptonycteris yerbabuenae Approaching Cactus Flowers
Nectar-feeding bats show morphological, physiological, and behavioral adaptations for feeding on nectar. How they find and localize flowers is still poorly understood. While scent cues alone allow no precise localization of a floral target, the spatial properties of flower echoes are very precise and could play a major role, particularly at close range. The aim of this study is to understand th...
متن کاملBats, viruses, emerging diseases and humans
This paper reviews the unique characteristics of bats, their important roles in providing ecosystem services, their viruses in relation to emerging diseases. Bats, as flying mammals, are the second largest order following rodents, with a wide variety (over 1400 identified species among 230 genera of 21 families in the world) due to their flying power and echolocation. Despite their importance a...
