Effects of Temperature on Intraspecific Competition in Ectotherms
(Univ Chicago Press, 2014-09-01)
Understanding how temperature influences population regulation through its effects on intraspecific competition is an important question for which there is currently little theory or data. Here we develop a theoretical ...
Environmental temperature and cloacal and surface temperatures of broiler chicks in first week post-hatch
(Applied Poultry Science Inc, 2000-03-01)
Adequate environmental temperature during the brooding period is very important to future broiler performance. Thus, the objective of this study was to investigate the extent to which environmental temperature affects the ...
Quantum state density and critical temperature in M-theory
(World Scientific Publ Co Pte Ltd, 2001-11-20)
We discuss the asymptotic properties of quantum states density for fundamental p-branes which can yield a microscopic interpretation of the thermodynamic quantities in M-theory. The matching of the BPS part of spectrum for ...
Effects of Temperature on Intraspecific Competition in Ectotherms
(Univ Chicago Press, 2015)
A framework for the interpretation of temperature effects on dormancy and germination in seed populations showing dormancy
(Cambridge University Press, 2015-06)
Temperature is a key factor affecting both dormancy and germination. In non-dormant seeds, when temperature is within the thermal range permissive for germination, it just regulates germination velocity, while in seeds ...
Photosynthetic responses to temperature in tropical lotic macroalgae
(2004-06-01)
A comparative analysis of the photosynthetic responses to temperature (10-30°C) was carried out under short-term laboratory conditions by chlorophyll fluorescence and oxygen (O2) evolution. Ten lotic macroalgal species ...
Environmental temperature and cloacal and surface temperatures of broiler chicks in first week post-hatch
(Applied Poultry Science Inc, 2014)
Effect of breeder age on eggshell thickness, surface temperature, hatchability and chick weigh
(Fundação APINCO de Ciência e Tecnologia Avícolas, 2012-03-01)
Two experiments were carried out to study the effect of breeder age on incubation parameters (hatchability, eggshell thickness, egg surface temperature and chick weight). In Exp. 1, fertile eggs (30- and 60-wk-old breeders) ...
Trading heat and hops for water: Dehydration effects on locomotor performance, thermal limits, and thermoregulatory behavior of a terrestrial toad
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2017-11-01)
Due to their highly permeable skin and ectothermy, terrestrial amphibians are challenged by compromises between water balance and body temperature regulation. The way in which such compromises are accommodated, under a ...
