Predation of 0-group flatfishes by 0-group cod:handling times and size selection

Group-size-mediated habitat selection and group fusion-fission dynamics of bison under predation risk.

For gregarious animals the cost-benefit trade-offs that drive habitat selection may vary dynamically with group size, which plays an important role in foraging and predator avoidance strategies. We examined how habitat selection by bison (Bison bison) varied as a function of group size and interpreted these patterns by testing whether habitat selection was more strongly driven by the competing ...

Effects of elk group size on predation by woives

Wolf-prey research has focused on single-prey systems in North America dominated by moose (Alces alces) or white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus). Elk (Cervus elaphus) are social ungulates and the main prey item of wolves {Canis lupus) in Banff National Park (BNP), Alberta. Grouping behaviour may affect the functional response of predators by changing how predators encounter and kill prey. ...

چکیده پایان نامه (شامل خلاصه، اهداف، روش های اجرا و نتایج به دست آمده): کار جمع آوری گو یش های محلی در سال های اخیر شتاب امیدوار کننده ای به خود گرفته است. شاید از بارزترین اهداف جمع آوری گویش های مختلف، ثبت و ضبط آن، جلوگیری از نابودی و مهمتر از همه حل مشکلات دستوری زبان رسمی باشد. دقت در فرآیند های زبانی گویش های محلی نوع ارتباط مردم نواحی مختلف با پیرامون نشان را به ما نشان خواهد داد. از س...

OPTICAL PROPERTIES OF CO-EVAPORATED THIN FILMS OF BINARY Bi 0-Te 0 AND Bi 0 -V 0 SYSTEMS

Thin films of binary Bi 0 -TeO and Bi 0 -V 0 systems were prepared by the thermal co-evaporation technique in a vacuum at room temperature. The optical absorption edge of these systems are studied in the wavelength of 200-800 nm using a PERKIN-ELMER uv/Vis spectrophotometer. It is found that the value of n=3/2 in the Davis-Mott equation is best fitted for the fundamental absorption edge f...
