We present an archaeological study of hunter-gatherer home ranges on the basis of two lines of evidence. Firstly, we discuss information related to the mobility of individuals, which was approached by stable isotope studies. Secondly, we present data related to the transport and discard of artefacts, since the distribution of these itemsmay be determined by the movement of people. Our main goal...

OBJECTIVES To define and discuss reference ranges for commonly determined laboratory parameters in healthy adults from southern Tanzania. METHODS A population-based sample of adult volunteers from Mbeya, Tanzania, who were not HIV positive or showing signs and symptoms of other diseases, participated in this study. We enrolled 145 women and 156 men between 19 and 48 years of age to determine ...

Figure 1. Approximate distribution of harbor porpoise in the U.S. Pacific Northwest (shaded area). Stock boundaries separating the stocks are shown. STOCK DEFINITION AND GEOGRAPHIC RANGE In the eastern North Pacific Ocean, the harbor porpoise ranges from Point Barrow, along the Alaskan coast, and down the west coast of North America to Point Conception, California (Gaskin 1984). Harbor porpoise...

Determining the position of range edges is the first step in developing an understanding of the ecological and evolutionary dynamics in play as species' ranges shift in response to climate change. Here, we study the leading (poleward) range edge of Ocypode cordimanus, a ghost crab that is common along the central to northern east coast of Australia. Our study establishes the poleward range edge...

The paper investigates the role of knowledge management in enabling project success, innovation, completion times, operational efficiency and the generation of new knowledge in development projects. Four projects in Uganda, Nigeria, and Cote d‘Ivoire were used as case studies. The objective was to explore the nature of knowledge management practices in these projects in order to see how they co...

The project of electronic corpora for Manding languages was launched in St. Petersburg in 2009. By now, it is carried out by an international team with an assistance by specialists in Manding languages from different countries. Tools have been developed taking into account the specifics of Manding languages (and adaptable to other languages). The Bamana Reference Corpus was put on line in 2012,...
