Spotting East African Mammals in Open Savannah from Space
Knowledge of population dynamics is essential for managing and conserving wildlife. Traditional methods of counting wild animals such as aerial survey or ground counts not only disturb animals, but also can be labour intensive and costly. New, commercially available very high-resolution satellite images offer great potential for accurate estimates of animal abundance over large open areas. Howe...
متن کاملDrivers of Intensity and Prevalence of Flea Parasitism on Small Mammals in East African Savanna Ecosystems.
The relative importance of environmental factors and host factors in explaining variation in prevalence and intensity of flea parasitism in small mammal communities is poorly established. We examined these relationships in an East African savanna landscape, considering multiple host levels: across individuals within a local population, across populations within species, and across species withi...
متن کاملNotes on Cortical Areas in Mammals
The past two centuries of work on the structure and function of the cerebral cortex have been characterized by recurring debates—often too often forgotten and re-argued—involving several basic oppositions. Two of these are: (1) "field" versus "localization" theories of cortical function, and (2) higher-level, abstract (linguistic) facilities versus lower-level, less abstract, sensorimotor funct...
متن کاملGastrointestinal osmolality electrolyte and organic acid composition in five species of East African herbivorous mammals.
inherent differences observed in ionic composition of gastrointestinal contents due to diet, feeding regimen and (or) site along the length of the digestive tract were controlled so that a clearer understanding of species differences could be obtained. Three species of ruminants (i.e., Zebu cattle, sheep and goat), a pseudo-ruminant (camel) and a nonruminant (donkey) were compared. Specific dif...
متن کاملSeasonal Patterns of Mixed Species Groups in Large East African Mammals
Mixed mammal species groups are common in East African savannah ecosystems. Yet, it is largely unknown if co-occurrences of large mammals result from random processes or social preferences and if interspecific associations are consistent across ecosystems and seasons. Because species may exchange important information and services, understanding patterns and drivers of heterospecific interactio...
