一种新型荧光和DNA组合用于多功能、长期标记蚊虫
Roy Faiman,Benjamin J Krajacich,Leland Graber et al.
Roy Faiman et al.
Current mark-release-recapture methodologies are limited in their ability to address complex problems in vector biology, such as studying multiple groups overlapping in space and time. Additionally, limited mark retention, reduced post-mark...
Quantifying carbon in tree bark: The importance of bark morphology and tree size [0.03%]
量化树木树皮中的碳含量：树皮形态和树木大小的重要性
Mathias Neumann,Michael J Lawes
Mathias Neumann
Bark contributes approximately 20% to the total above-ground biomass of trees, yet bark is not properly accounted for when estimating carbon sequestered by trees. Current allometric functions estimate tree volume from diameter measured over...
Trade-offs with telemetry-derived contact networks for infectious disease studies in wildlife [0.03%]
基于遥测技术的接触网络在野生动物传染病研究中的利弊分析
