A common assumption adopted in life cycle general equilibrium models is that the population is stable at steady state, that is, its relative age distribution becomes constant overtime. An open question is whether the ...

The Cretaceous Serra Geral Aquifer (SGA) is contained within one of the largest continental flood basalts in the world, reaching a thickness up to 1700 m in the center of the Paraná Basin. The SGA is one of the most important ...

Age determination in gastropods is an essential tool for understanding the main aspects of population dynamics that allow for the formation of fisheries policies. Small-scale fisheries of the nassariid gastropod Buccinanops ...

Consistent information on meat products consumed by the public is essential. The technique of stable isotopes is a powerful tool to recover consumers' confidence, as it allows the detection of animal byproduct residues in ...

It is described the ore mineralogy, fluid inclussion study, stable isotopes results and 40Ar/39Ar age determination of the Don Sixto, a low-sulphidation epithermal ore deposit from southern Mendoza.

Stomach contents and carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) stable isotope analysis were used to evaluate trophic relationships of jumbo squid, Dosidicus gigas. Buccal masses, beaks and stomach contents of large and medium maturing-sized ...

We examined the isotopic signatures (δ 13C, δ 15N) of adult body feathers from southern giant petrels Macronectes giganteus collected at two breeding colonies in Antarctica (Potter Peninsula and Cape Geddes) and one in ...

Objectives: We conducted stable isotope and dietary analyses of women from higher and lower socioeconomic status (SES) groups in Cali, Colombia. The objectives were to test between-group differences in stable isotope, ...
