On wave-sheltered shores of the northeastern Pacific, the population size structure of Littorina sitkana varies with intertidal height, as larger snails are mostly found only in the upper intertidal. This pattern has been attributed to high predation rates by crabs (and perhaps fish) on large snails inhabiting low-intertidal areas; i.e., large snails are presumed to be rare there simply because...

به طور کلی، هر سلول طبیعی بدن انسان، که مشتمل بر قسمت‌های مختلفی همچون هسته، غشاء سلولی و نانوالیاف پروتئینی می‌باشد، دارای سختی استحکام مکانیکی مشخصی است. هرگونه تغییر محسوس در این استحکام، نشان از یک بیماری دارد. یکی راه‌های تشخیص بیماری‌های مختلف سرطان های سنجش میزان تغییرات رخ داده خواص آن‌ها می‌باشد. مقالۀ حاضر، مشخصات شامل مدول الاستیسیته نیروی چسبندگی Ago-1522 سلول‌های پوست محسوب می‌شود،...

A suite of physical-biological models was used to explore the importance of mortality and fluid dynamics in controlling concentrations of fecal indicator bacteria (FIB) at Huntington Beach, CA. An advection-diffusion (AD) model provided a baseline to assess improvements in model skill with the inclusion of mortality. Six forms of mortality were modeled. All mortality models performed better tha...

Facilitation cascades generated by co-occurring foundation species can enhance the abundance and diversity of associated organisms. However, it remains poorly understood how differences among native and invasive species in their ability to exploit these positive interactions contribute to emergent patterns of community structure and biotic acceptance. On intertidal shorelines in New England, we...
