Home ranges of raccoon dogs in managed and natural areas
Knowledge of space use is central to understand animals' role in ecosystems. The raccoon dog Nyctereutes procyonoides is considered as one of the most influential alien mesopredator species in Europe, having the potential to cause loss of local biodiversity and act as a vector for zoonotic diseases. We collared 12 animals to study their home range and habitat use in two areas with different man...
متن کاملManaging Invasive Plants in Natural Areas: Moving beyond Weed Control
Exotic invasive plants present one of the greatest challenges to natural resource management. These weeds can alter entire communities and ecosystems, substantially degrading important ecosystem services such as forage for wild and domestic herbivores, water and soil quality, recreational values, and wildlife habitat.

متن کاملNatural products as herbicides
Plants and microbes contain a largely unexploited storehouse of phytotoxins that might be used directly or as structural indicators for new synthetic herbicides. Several factors have increased the interest of the herbicide industry in this source of natural products as herbicides. Natural compounds have made a large impact in the area of insecticides, whereas relatively minor successes have bee...
متن کاملThe Use of Monte-Carlo Simulations in Seismic Hazard Analysis in Tehran and Surrounding Areas
Probabilistic seismic hazard analysis is a technique for estimating the annual rate of exceedance of a specified ground motion at a site due to the known and suspected earthquake sources. A Monte-Carlo approach is utilized to estimate the seismic hazard at a site. This method uses numerous resampling of an earthquake catalog to construct synthetic catalogs to evaluate the ground motion hazard a...
