Experimental tests were conducted to determine whether females and males of the tree-dwelling lizard Liolaemus tenuis (Tropiduridae) show intraspecific chemical recognition during breeding and postreproductive seasons. ...

Ecological and phylogenetic factors determine which sensory modalities organisms use in their day-to-day activities. Among lizards, empirical studies indicate a tight association between foraging strategies and the ability ...

The abundance ratios of some chemical species have been found to correlate with stellar age, leading to the possibility of using measurements of abundances in stellar atmospheres as age indicators thanks to the Galactic ...

Decision-making for sustainable design requires the evaluation of different options considering all sustainability dimensions simultaneously: economic, environmental and social. Each dimension has a specific relative ...

To analyze the performance of a vertical tube reactor involving a gas-slurry reacting system in dispersed bubble flow and upflow, downflow, and upflow-downflow (alternating) configurations, several performance indicators ...

A study involving microextraction fibers was carried focusing on calibration setup for endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) sorption in seawater. The sorption of EDCs (triclosan (TCS), bisphenol A (BPA) and 17α-ethinylestradiol ...
