We used variable-radius point counts and mist-netting to estimate forest bird abundances in the Maule Region of South Central Chile. Mist-netting detected a total of 25 species over 3 years and 3 seasons per year (Winter, ...

We report on the use and efficiency of an active mist-net method for capturing 3 subspecies of torrent ducks (Merganetta armata), a territorial and specialized South American waterfowl, in fast-moving rivers of the Andes ...

Traditional mist nets used for capturing bats have several drawbacks, particularly that they are inefficient at sampling many insectivorous species. One possible alternative is to use monofilament nets, whose netting is ...

The overall objective of food refrigeration is to increase shelf life and thus increase the chances of preservation. It is also possible to dežne another set of specižc objectives, which are characteristic of each different ...

The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effects of rooting media (vermiculite, carbonized rice bark, fenolic spume and sand), presence of IBA (indole-3-butyric acid) and presence of fertilization during the rooting ...

The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effect of type of cuttings (apical, intermediate and basal) and different concentrations of IBA (indole-3-butyric acid) on rooting of Red success rose (Rosa sp.) leafy ...

The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effects of rooting media (vermiculite, carbonized rice bark, fenolic spume and sand), presence of IBA (indole-3-butyric acid) and presence of fertilization during the rooting ...

Small rails remain poorly known due to their secretive habits and the lack of adequate methods for their study. Here we describe and test a novel method for trapping small rails. The playbacked V-netting consists in the ...
