Using energy budgets to combine ecology and toxicology in a mammalian sentinel species
Process-driven modelling approaches can resolve many of the shortcomings of traditional descriptive and non-mechanistic toxicology. We developed a simple dynamic energy budget (DEB) model for the mink (Mustela vison), a sentinel species in mammalian toxicology, which coupled animal physiology, ecology and toxicology, in order to mechanistically investigate the accumulation and adverse effects o...
متن کاملCold Start Purchase Prediction with Budgets Constraints
IJCAI-16 Contest Brick-and-Mortar Store Recommendation with Budget Constraints is about buyer nearby brick-and-mortar stores recommendation. The main task of this competition focuses on predicting nearby store buying action when users enter new areas they rarely visited in the past. The contest has two novelties: first, given huge amount of online user behavior with on-site shopping record of m...
متن کاملPlant Secondary Metabolites Compromise the Energy Budgets of Specialist and Generalist Mammalian Herbivores
Ingestion of plant secondary metabolites (PSMs) presents a physiological and behavioral challenge for mammalian herbivores. Herbivores must not only detoxify PSMs, but they may also deal with energetic constraints such as reduced food intake, mass loss, increased excretion of energy, and increased metabolic demands. We hypothesized that the energetic consequences of consuming PSMs will signific...
متن کاملDaily energy budgets of avian embryos: the paradox of the plateau phase in egg metabolic rate.
The metabolic rate of precocial bird eggs reaches a plateau when about 80% of the incubation period has passed. This is unexpected, as in many species the embryo continues to grow and maintenance costs must therefore increase. To investigate this paradox, daily energy budgets were constructed for embryos of four galliform species according to two models that used empirical data on egg metabolic...
متن کاملPooled Energy Budgets: Resituating Human Energy Allocation Trade-offs
Across taxa, many life-history traits vary as a function of differences in body size. Among primates, including humans, allometric relationships explain many trends in metabolic, growth, reproductive, and mortality rates. But humans also deviate from nonhuman primates with respect to other developmental, reproductive, and parenting characteristics. Broad relationships between life-history trait...
