Biological and biologically-relevant Physics
Thus white noise is uniform in Fourier space, at least for frequencies below the inverse correlation time. Another way of looking at this is that the distribution of white noise is smooth in real space. Therefore it is also uniform with the same distribution under any linear transformation whose Jacobian is 1. The Jacobian of a symmetric Fourier transform (using the prefactor 1/ √ 2π) must have...
متن کاملQuantification of radular marks as a method for estimating grazing of intertidal gastropods on rocky shores.
Wax discs have been used previously on intertidal rocky shores to record the grazing activity of gastropods. This study has evaluated this methodology for recording grazing of four common intertidal microalgal grazers on intertidal shores in New South Wales, Australia. In the laboratory, the four species examined-the patellid limpet, Cellana tramoserica (Sowerby), the trochid, Austrocochlea por...
متن کاملEffects of eutrophication, grazing, and algal blooms on rocky shores
Eutrophication can profoundly change rocky shore communities. These changes often cause the replacement of perennial, canopy-forming algae such as Fucus spp. with annual, bloom-forming algae such as Enteromorpha spp. Grazing, however, can counteract eutrophication by eliminating the annual algae’s susceptible recruits. We examine these generalizations across large scales. We use replicated ‘‘bi...
متن کاملWhole-Community Facilitation Regulates Biodiversity on Patagonian Rocky Shores
BACKGROUND Understanding the factors that generate and maintain biodiversity is a central goal in ecology. While positive species interactions (i.e., facilitation) have historically been underemphasized in ecological research, they are increasingly recognized as playing important roles in the evolution and maintenance of biodiversity. Dominant habitat-forming species (foundation species) buffer...
متن کاملThe Molecular Identification of four Species of Gastropoda on Rocky Shores of the Persian Gulf
In this study molecular identification of four species of Gastropoda have been studied based on mitochondrial genes, COI and 16S rRNA in the present work for the first time in the northern rocky coastal zones of Persian Gulf during years 2013 and 2014. Planaxis sulcatus، Cerithidea cingulata، Siphonaria savignyi and Onchidium peronii Identified. After morphological identification, DNA extractio...
