Water Relations and Foliar Isotopic Composition of Prosopis tamarugo Phil., an Endemic Tree of the Atacama Desert Growing at Three Levels of Water Table Depth
(Frontiers Media, 2016)
Prosopis tamarugo Phil. is a strict phreatophyte tree species endemic to the "Pampa del Tamarugal", Atacama Desert. The extraction of water for various uses has increased the depth of the water table in the Pampa aquifers ...
Interannual and seasonal variability of snow depth scaling behavior in a subalpine catchment
(American Geophysical Union, 2020)
Understanding and characterizing the spatial distribution of snow are critical to represent the energy balance and runoff production in mountain environments. In this study, we investigate the interannual and seasonal ...
Burrowing behavior of an infaunal clam species after siphon nipping
(Elsevier Science, 2014-05)
Burial depth plays an important role in the life of many infaunal clam species. For these organisms, the most effective defense against predation is to bury into the sediment, which hinder the detection and manipulation ...
3-D reconstruction by extended depth-of-field in failure analysis - Case study II: Fractal analysis of interlaminar fracture in carbon/epoxy composites
(Pergamon-Elsevier B.V. Ltd, 2012-10-01)
This work aims to evaluate the fractal behavior of fracture surfaces in laminated carbon/epoxy composite material, by conducting double cantilever beam (DCB) tests and comparing fractal values against critical (at notch ...

Diving behavior of sperm whales in relation to behavior of a major prey species, the jumbo squid, in the Gulf of California, Mexico
(Marine Ecology Progress Series, 2007)
Sperm whales occur worldwide and feed largely on meso- and bathypelagic squid, but little is known about the behavioral ecology of this predator and its prey. In the Gulf of California, sperm whales are thought to feed on ...
Depth-selection patterns and diel vertical migration of Daphnia ambigua (Crustacea: Cladocera) in lake El Plateado
(Sociedad de Biología de Chile, 2001)
Non-investment in information systems: A cognitive dissonance case study
(Americas Conference on Information Systems, 2015)
Owing to the complex nature information system investment decisions, the present study presents an interpretative framework for addressing the postponement of decisions to invest in this kind of technology. An instrumental ...
Energy dissipation in depth-sensing indentation as a characteristic of the nanoscratch behavior of coatings
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE SA, 2009)
Wear behavior of coatings has usually been described in terms of mechanical properties such as hardness (H) and effective elastic modulus (E*). Alternatively, an energy approach appears as a promising analysis taking into ...
