Shags in Antarctica: their feeding behaviour and ecological role in the marine food web
(Cambridge University Press, 2006-03)
Feeding behaviour, ecological role in the marine food web and population trends of the Antarctic shag Phalacrocorax bransfieldensis and the South Georgia shag P. georgianus in Antarctica are analysed. The diving depths and ...
Diffusive Phenomena and the Austenite/Martensite Relative Stability in Cu-Based Shape-Memory Alloys
(Springer, 2018-03-26)
The main characteristic of martensitic phase transitions is the coordinate movement of the atoms which takes place athermally, without the contribution of diffusion during its occurrence. However, the impacts of diffusive ...
A First Approach Towards Integrating Computational Argumentation in Cognitive Cities
(Association for Computing Machinery, 2020)
In the last years, the concept of Cognitive Smart City (CSC) emerged from the convergence of the Internet of Things, big data, smart city technologies and artificial intelligence techniques. At the same time, computational ...
Similarity in parasite communities of the teleost fish Pinguipes brasilianus in the southwestern Atlantic: Infracommunities as a tool to detect geographical patterns
(Elsevier, 2010-02)
Patterns of distance decay in similarity among communities of the fish Pinguipes brasilianus (Teleostei: Pinguipedidae) from five areas in the southwestern Atlantic were investigated to determine whether the rate of decay ...
Ecohydrological transformation in the Dry Chaco and the risk of dryland salinity: Following Australia's footsteps?
(John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2017-06)
During the last century, the massive conversion of Australian dry forests to crops and pastures triggered the massive soil and groundwater degradation process known as dryland salinity. Currently, South American Chaco's ...
Sampling the μν SSM for displaced decays of the tau left sneutrino LSP at the LHC
(Springer, 2019-11-16)
Within the framework of the μνSSM , a displaced dilepton signal is expected at the LHC from the decay of a tau left sneutrino as the lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP) with a mass in the range 45–100 GeV. We compare ...
A multi-wavelength view of the cosmic ray confinement in star-forming galaxies
(Sissa, 2021-07)
Cosmic rays (CRs) are responsible for a tight correlation between the star formation rate (SFR) and the radio/γ-ray luminosity observed in star-forming galaxies (SFGs). This correlation can be explained by a linear scaling ...
Hybrid ionic liquid-3D graphene-Ni foam for on-line preconcentration and separation of Hg species in water with atomic fluorescence spectrometry detection
(Elsevier, 2020-04-01)
A preconcentration method based on a novel hybrid sorption nanomaterial consisting in a 3D graphene-Ni foam functionalized with an ionic liquid (IL) was developed for Hg species determination. The capability of different ...
Benefits to the germination of seeds provided by birds that mandibulate fleshy fruits
(Gauthier-Villars/Editions Elsevier, 2021-08)
The effect of fruit removal and passage through the digestive tract of frugivorous birds on seed germination has been mostly studied in species that swallow the whole fruit without mandibulating (“gulpers”), and defecate ...
Detailed study of nonlinear cooling with two-terminal configurations of topological edge states
(American Physical Society, 2020-10)
We study the nonlinear thermoelectric cooling performance of a quantum spin Hall system. The setup consists of a nanomagnet contacting a Kramers pair of helical edge states, resulting in a transmission probability with a ...
