Tigers and their prey: Predicting carnivore densities from prey abundance.
The goal of ecology is to understand interactions that determine the distribution and abundance of organisms. In principle, ecologists should be able to identify a small number of limiting resources for a species of interest, estimate densities of these resources at different locations across the landscape, and then use these estimates to predict the density of the focal species at these locati...
متن کاملPREDICTION OF HOT DEFORMATION BEHAVIOUR OF A PH STAINLESS STEEL AT HIGH STRAIN RATES
In this study the hot deformation behaviour of a precipitation hardened (PH) stainless steel at high strain rates has been predicted through hot compression testing. Stress-strain curves were obtained for a range of strain rates from 10-3 to 10+1 S-1 and temperatures from 850 to 1150°C. Results obtained by microstructure and stress-strain curves show that at low temperatures and high strain rat...
متن کاملHigh Temperature Oxidation Behaviour of Nimonic - 115 Alloy in Presence of Sodium Salts at 850OC
The high temperature oxidation behaviour of Nimonic-115 industrial alloy has been investigated in presence of NaNO3, Na2CO3 and Na2O2 at 850oC in flowing air. The oxidation kinetics and effect of salt deposition for the period of 48 h were studied. The scale morphologies were determined on the basis of X-ray diffraction anal...
متن کاملNucleus - nucleus collisions at high baryon densities
We study central collision of P b + P b at 20, 40, 80 and 160 A·GeV within the UrQMD transport approach and compare rapidity distributions of π − , K + , K − and Λ with the recent measurements from the NA49 Collaboration at 40, 80 and 160 A·GeV. It is found that the UrQMD model reasonably describes the data, however, systematically overpredicts the π − yield by ∼ 20%, whereas the K + yield is u...
متن کاملGregarious behaviour of evasive prey.
Gregarious behavior of potential prey was explained by Hamilton (1971) on the basis of risk-sharing: The probability of being picked up by a predator is small when one makes part of a large aggregate of prey. This argument holds only if the predator chooses its victims at random. It is not the case for herds of evasive prey in the open, where prey's gregarious behavior, favorable for the fast g...
