(eSciPub, 2020-10)
The context of pandemic of the human coronavirus COVID-19, preventive strategies based on mandatory social isolation (quarantine) were imposed by governments to reduce transmission in the community. However, they have had ...
Characterization of forest carbon stocks at the landscape scale in the Argentine Dry Chaco
(Elsevier Science, 2018-09)
One of the most proposed climate change mitigation strategies is carbon sequestration by vegetation. This depends on the rate of carbon uptake and transformation in biomass, the rate of release through respiration, and the ...
Past, present and future of Aedes aegypti in its South American southern distribution fringe: What do temperature and population tell us?
(Elsevier Science, 2019-02)
Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) (Linnaeus) is currently the major threat among arbovirus vectors in the Americas. We examined its past, present, and future distribution patterns in the South American fringe in association ...
Foraging behaviour and diet of American Oystercatchers in a Patagonian intertidal area affected by nutrient loading
(Csiro Publishing, 2010-01)
Eutrophication increases the biomass of opportunistic green macroalgae that covers intertidal zones, and macroalgal blooms may affect the intertidal invertebrate community and predation of invertebrates by shorebirds. In ...
Determination of any pure spatial qudits from a minimum number of measurements by phase-stepping interferometry
(American Physical Society, 2017-12)
We present a proof-of-principle demonstration of a method to characterize any pure spatial qudit of arbitrary dimension d, which is based on the classic phase-shift interferometry technique. In the proposed scheme a total ...
Deep eutectic solvents as smart cosubstrate in alcohol dehydrogenase-catalyzed reductions
(MDPI, 2020-09)
Alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) catalyzed reductions in deep eutectic solvents (DESs) may become efficient and sustainable alternatives to afford alcohols. This paper successfully explores the ADH-catalyzed reduction of ketones ...

Commerson’s dolphin (Cephalorhynchus commersonii), Peale’s dolphin (Lagenorhynchus australis), dusky dolphin (Lagenorhynchus obscurus), and hourglass dolphin (Lagenorhynchus cruciger) are closely related species occurring ...
Trophic dynamics of three sympatric anuran species in a soybean agroecosystem from Santa Fe Province, Argentina
(British Herpetological Society, 2010-11)
The conversion of forests to agroecosystems presents a challenge for biodiversity conservation. In this study, the feeding habits of three species of anurans (Rhinella fernandezae, Odontophrynus americanus and Physalaemus ...
Intransitive Causatives in English: productivity regularities and asymmetries
(University of Konstanz, 2020-09-17)
We analyze a construction generally overlooked in the literature, with key implications for of argument structure alternations and VP-internal configuration. This construction involves an object-less causative variant of ...
