, 2007). Safe sites, or microrefugia, will persist because of spatial heterogeneity, particularly in complex terrains (Ashcroft and Gollan, 2013 and De Frenne et al., 2013). Restoring compositionally and functionally diverse ecosystems, based on an understanding of contemporary reference conditions, also is … Continue reading →

Consequently, the test should not be applied in population with a high rate of endogamy. Non-invasive prenatal testing to establishing paternity, check details which is currently commercially offered, has been criticized due to its ethical issues [33], [34] and [35].

Sand released by the erosion of paleo-lobes such as St George I or Sulina (Fig. 1) periodically transferred sand downcoast to construct baymouth barriers and forming the Razelm, Sinoe and Zmeica lagoons (Giosan et al., 2006a and Giosan et al., 2006b). If … Continue reading →

In a further study, we found that secondary impairment of autoregulation in the subacute stage after stroke was associated with alterations in the neurovascular coupling mechanism outside the infarcted area using functional magnetic resonance imaging [13]. This underlines the assumption … Continue reading →

Shark bycatch on FADs is almost exclusively composed of two species; silky sharks Carcharhinus falciformis and oceanic white tip sharks Carcharhinus longimanus, together comprising over 90% of the shark bycatch by number [21]. As with many sharks, these species have … Continue reading →
