Bromeliad Selection by Two Salamander Species in a Harsh Environment
Bromeliad phytotelmata are frequently used by several Neotropical amphibian taxa, possibly due to their high humidity, microclimatic stability, and role as a refuge from predators. Indeed, the ability of phytotelmata to buffer against adverse environmental conditions may be instrumental in allowing some amphibian species to survive during periods of environmental change or to colonize sub-optim...
متن کاملHabitat selection by two competing species in a two-habitat environment.
We present a theoretical study of habitat selection strategies for two species that compete in an environment consisting of two different habitats. Our fitness functions are derived from the Lotka-Volterra competition equations, and we assume that individuals settle in the habitat in which their fitness is maximized. We derive an ideal free distribution across the habitats for both species. Our...
متن کاملTwo Species Competition in a Periodic Environment*
The classical Lotka-Volterra equations for two competing species have constant coefficients. In this paper these equations are studied under the assumption that the coefficients are periodic functions of a common period. As a generalization of the existence theory for equilibria in the constant coefficient case, it is shown that there exists a branch of positive periodic solutions which connect...
متن کاملRF-Based Location System in Harsh Environment
RF-based location tracking in industrial environment possesses many challenges due to the complex propagation condition. This paper will address some of the problems in this environment. Firstly, we evaluate the performance of RF-based tracking in a harsh environment, i.e. in a car manufacturing plant. Secondly, the research presents a comprehensive study of an algorithm that utilises Bayesian ...
متن کاملBiocompatible coatings for CMUTs in a harsh, aqueous environment
The results of coating capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducer (CMUT) arrays with two different biocompatible materials, parylene-c and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), are reported. These materials were characterized for use with CMUTs to enable direct contact transcutaneous and in vivo imaging. A passivation coating is required to provide electrical isolation to the active areas of the dev...
