An updated checklist of the distribution of fishes that inhabit the continental waters of the Mexican state of Chiapas is presented. The state was compartmentalized into 12 hydrological regions for the purpose of understanding the distribution of fish fauna across a state with large physiographic variance. The ichthyofauna of Chiapas is represented by 311 species distributed in two classes, 26 ...

Experimental replication of watersheds of substantial size is impractical; it is impossible to achieve uniformity of topographic, edaphic, and physiographic conditions in such watersheds. Some other approach to the development of experimental error is needed if it is necessary to apply parametric statistical tests in this situation. We tackled this question with a study design that used time, r...

Mountain caribou, an ecotype of woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou), are a species at risk and so are a primary focus in forest management in the Columbia Mountains Forest District. Two multivariate habitat models have been developed based on telemetry data to predict caribou habitat by associating forest cover and physiographic variables at various spatial scales and seasons: one usin...

A nation's economic geography can have an enormous impact on its development. In Thailand, we show that a high concentration of enterprise in an area predicts high subsequent growth in and around that area. We also find spatially contiguous convergence of enterprise with stagnant areas left behind. Exogenous physiographic conditions are correlated with enterprise location and growth. We fit a s...

Abstract The aim of the present study is to explore strategies in enumerating units three dimensional (3D) arrays. We analyse enumeration students grade 3 (ages 8 9) situations cubical and spherical representations 3D By exploring students’ these two situations, we find that difficulties arrays can be traced units-locating, with consequence applying double triple counting. Our results also indi...

This study documents the global distribution and characteristics of diurnally varying low-level jets (LLJs), including their horizontal, vertical, and temporal structure, with a special emphasis on highlighting the underlying commonalities and unique qualities of the various nocturnal jets. Two tools are developed to accomplish this goal. The first is a 21-yr global reanalysis performed with th...
