Coccolithophorids are marine unicellular algae characterized by their ability to carry out controlled, subcellular calcification. The biochemical and kinetic features of membrane-bound Ca2+-stimulated ATPases have been examined. Membranes and…

Hydatid disease continues to be a substantial cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Elimination is difficult with current control options, but reducing egg production by Echinococcus granulosus (Eg) in canines might help to reduce transmission…

Pathogens such as rabies virus and canine distemper virus present a significant risk to the long-term survival of some endangered African wild dog (Lycaon picrus) populations. Vaccination of wild dogs is one approach that might reduce population…

Delivery of proteins to the vacuole of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae provides an excellent model system in which to study vacuole and lysosome biogenesis and membrane traffic. This organelle receives proteins from a number of different routes,…

The conceptual gap between ecological and historical biogeography is wide, although both disciplines are concerned with explaining how distributions have been shaped. A central aim of modern historical biogeography is to use a phylogenetic framework…

Vagrant birds recorded ashore at Marion Island and Prince Edward Island from 1987 to 2009 are documented. In total, 101 observations (including multiple sightings of potentially the same individual) of 29 species were made. Palaearctic and Holarctic…

Age and growth estimates for the shortfin mako, Isurus oxyrinchus, derived from vertebral centra of 258 specimens (118 males, 140 females), ranging in size from 64 to 340 cm fork length (FL) were compared with data from 22 tag?recaptured individuals…

Age and growth parameters were derived for blue-spotted maskray Neotrygon kuhlii from Moreton Bay in subtropical eastern Australia. Maximum age estimates of 13 and 10 years were obtained from female (n = 76) and male (n = 44) N. kuhlii,…

We report a robust, reliable, and comprehensive analytical method for the identification and quantification of the entire class of coenzyme A (CoA) activated substances, particularly short-, medium-, and long-chain acyl-CoAs derived from various…

The paper describes the computer aided method development and validation for the determination of hydroquinone in human urine from a clinical study on renal excretion of hydroquinone metabolites and the release of free hydroquinone in the urinary…

MOTIVATION: Many clustering algorithms have been proposed for the analysis of gene expression data, but little guidance is available to help choose among them. We provide a systematic framework for assessing the results of clustering algorithms.…

Many conservation organisations rely heavily on volunteers, and the government often relies on them to achieve tasks for which funding is insufficient-for example, the monitoring of trends in biodiversity on a national scale. Thus, it is critical to…

Discussion of computational aspects of multiple structural change models along with several empirical examples. Here, we report on the results of a replication study using the R statistical software package. We are able to verify most of their…

Diffusion approximation (DA) methods provide a powerful tool for population viability analysis (PVA) using simple time series of population counts. The e methods have a strong theoretical foundation based on stochastic age-structured models, but…

A rich and diverse set of potential bibliometric and scientometric predictors of research performance quality and importance are emerging today, from the classic metrics (publication counts, journal impact factors and individual article/author…

Although many indicator-based sustainability monitoring tools for agriculture have been developed in the last decade, considerably less effort has been put on their validation. In the present study, we developed and applied a procedure to validate…

Members of the family Brachionidae are free-living organisms that range in size from 170 to 250 microns. They comprise part of the zooplankton in freshwater and marine systems worldwide. Morphologically, members of the family are characterized by a…

When approaching a prey target, bats have been found to decrease the intensity of their emitted echolocation pulses, called intensity compensation. In this paper we examine whether intensity compensation in the echolocation of bats is flexible or…

1. The population size of seabirds is often difficult to estimate from surveys at breeding colonies because of factors such as burrow nesting and nocturnal breeding. The reliability of alternative surveys conducted at sea has not previously been…

Abstract The paper deals with the validation and evaluation of mathematical models in natural hazard analysis, with a special focus on establishing their predictive power. Although most of the tools and statistics available are common to general…
