Experiment designs to evaluate inter- and intra-specific interactions in mixed plantings of forest trees
A review of three mixed-species trials reveals the utility of competition indices for evaluating interand intra-specific interactions between trees, the desirability of experiments that span a range of tree spacing and composition to inform calibration of these competition indices, the need for extremes of species composition and stand density to calibrate response surfaces, and the far-reachin...
متن کاملDYNAMIC COMPLEXITY OF A THREE SPECIES COMPETITIVE FOOD CHAIN MODEL WITH INTER AND INTRA SPECIFIC COMPETITIONS
The present article deals with the inter specific competition and intra-specific competition among predator populations of a prey-dependent three component food chain model consisting of two competitive predator sharing one prey species as their food. The behaviour of the system near the biologically feasible equilibria is thoroughly analyzed. Boundedness and dissipativeness of the system are e...
متن کاملHerbivory as a Canopy Process in Rain Forest Trees
It has long been assumed that forests represented vast expanses of homogeneous green tissue, but this assumption is oversimplified. When walking through a forest, we usually focus our observations on a narrow band of green foliage, from ground level to about 2 m in height. This represents at most 10% of the foliage in mature forests, with the rest often high above our heads and consequently bey...
متن کاملRain forest fragmentation and the proliferation of successional trees.
The effects of habitat fragmentation on diverse tropical tree communities are poorly understood. Over a 20-year period we monitored the density of 52 tree species in nine predominantly successional genera (Annona, Bellucia, Cecropia, Croton, Goupia, Jacaranda, Miconia, Pourouma, Vismia) in fragmented and continuous Amazonian forests. We also evaluated the relative importance of soil, topographi...
متن کاملA hybrid approach for database intrusion detection at transaction and inter-transaction levels
Nowadays, information plays an important role in organizations. Sensitive information is often stored in databases. Traditional mechanisms such as encryption, access control, and authentication cannot provide a high level of confidence. Therefore, the existence of Intrusion Detection Systems in databases is necessary. In this paper, we propose an intrusion detection system for detecting attacks...
