Metabolic and behavioral responses of the reef fish Patagonotothen cornucola to ultraviolet radiation: Influence of the diet
(Elsevier Science, 2016-01)
Most of the studies devoted to assess the effects of ultraviolet radiation (UVR) on fishes have been done with early life stages (i.e., eggs and larvae) as they are the most vulnerable to these wavelengths; however, the ...
QTL for survival to UV-C radiation in Drosophila melanogaster
(Taylor & Francis, 2012-08)
Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate tolerance to UV-C (ultraviolet C, 280–100 nm) radiation in Drosophila melanogaster, implementing a quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping approach. This is of interest to ...
In situ Responses of Phytoplankton from the Subtropical Lake La Angostura (Tucumán, Argentina) in Relation to Solar Ultraviolet Radiation Exposure and Mixing Conditions
(Springer, 2006-04)
In situ experiments were conducted at various depths in the water column to determine the effects of solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR, 280–400 nm) on photosynthesis of natural phytoplankton assemblages from the subtropical ...
Sensitivity of winter phytoplankton communities from Andean lakes to artificial ultraviolet-B radiation
(Sociedad de Biología de Chile, 2001)
Ultraviolet-radiation-resistant isolates revealed cellulose-degrading species of Cellulosimicrobium cellulans (UVP1) and Bacillus pumilus (UVP4)
(WILEY-BLACKWELLHOBOKEN, 2012-09)
Among extremophiles, microorganisms resistant to ultraviolet radiation (UVR) have been known to produce a variety of metabolites (i.e., extremolytes). We hypothesized that natural microbial flora on elevated land (hills) ...
Treatment of industrial effluents of recalcitrant nature using ozone, hydrogen peroxide and ultraviolet radiation
(IMPRENTA UNIV ANTIOQUIA, 2008)
Currently diverse industries have high pollution potential because their productive processes generate great volumes of refractory effluents. These effluents are problematic, mainly due to the presence of recalcitrant ...
Durability of mixed mortar lining containing dregs-grits
(2014-02-26)
The improper disposal of industrial waste and exploitation of natural resources has resulted in the scarcity of river sand and environmental degradation, such as river erosions and pollution. This study aimed to assess the ...
Effects of high-energy astrophysical events on habitable planets
(CAMBRIDGE UNIV PRESSNEW YORK, 2012)
With the possible exception of meteor impacts, high-energy astrophysical events such as supernovae, gamma-ray bursts (GRB) and flares are usually not taken into account for biological and evolutionary studies due to their ...
