Catching Fish and Avoiding Sharks
Although researchers agree that the first 5 years of life are critical for children’s developing executive functions (EFs), further advances are hindered by a lack of consensus on the design and selection of developmentally appropriate EF tasks for young children. Given this debate, well-established adult measures of EF routinely have been adapted for young children. Given young children’s comp...
متن کاملAnglers’ Probabilities of Catching Record-Size Fish
—Most state fishery management agencies publish lists of the largest (e.g., 10, 25, and 50) specimens of each species captured by anglers. We fitted normal distributions for smallmouth bass Micropterus dolomieu and striped bass Morone saxatilis and a mixture of two normal distributions of largemouth bass Micropterus salmoides to the length of time that individual fish had been present on lists ...
متن کاملMathematical model of echolocation of fish-catching bats
The ability of bats to prey on the insects and catch fish on thewing bymeans of echolocation is remarkable, since the acoustic power transmission through air–water interface is very small. A mathematical model describing the way in which a bat can detect fish under the water surface is suggested in this article. The problem of scattering of the spherical acoustical wave from the water with the ...
متن کاملThe first European cave fish
Subterranean biodiversity in Europe is spectacularly rich, with the Western Balkans being home to about 400 cave species, representing the highest number of species per area worldwide [1]. Nonetheless, cave fishes, which are the most commonly found vertebrates in underground habitats [2], have not been described from Europe so far [3]. Here, we report the first European record of a cave fish po...
متن کاملCatching Audiovisual Interactions With a First-Person Fisherman Video Game.
The human brain is excellent at integrating information from different sources across multiple sensory modalities. To examine one particularly important form of multisensory interaction, we manipulated the temporal correlation between visual and auditory stimuli in a first-person fisherman video game. Subjects saw rapidly swimming fish whose size oscillated, either at 6 or 8 Hz. Subjects catego...
