Hydrological, Geomorphological, and Biological Applications
The topography of a catchment has a major impact on the hydrological, geomorphological. and biological processes active in the landscape. The spatial distribution of topographic attributes can often be used as an indirect measure of the spatial variability of these processes and allows them to be mapped using relatively simple techniques. Many geographic information systems are being developed ...
متن کاملMacrobenthos abundance and distribution on a spatially patterned intertidal flat
Natural ecosystems can show regular spatial vegetation patterns, which develop from small-scale ecological interactions. Some studies suggest that grazers can play a major role in controlling vegetation distribution in ecosystems with regular vegetation patterns, but the distribution of grazers and the effects of grazing on vegetation in spatially patterned ecosystems remains poorly understood....
متن کاملBiological clocks and rhythms in intertidal crustaceans.
Animals with habitats within the intertidal zone are exposed to environmental cycles that include the ebb and flow of tidal waters, changes in tidal levels associated with the lunar month, the light-dark cycle and the alternation of seasons. This intricate temporal environment results in the selection of biological timing systems with endogenous clocks that can oscillate with this wide range of...
متن کاملsynthesis and characterization of potentially biological active cyclometallated organoplatinum(ii) complexes
this work is presented in five parts. in the first part preparation of the starting complex [pt(c^n)cl(dmso)], 1, in which c^n = n(1),c(2?)-chelated, deprotonated 2-phenylpyridine, and dmso = dimethylsulfoxide, and its reaction with 1 equiv of the biphosphine ligands bis(diphenylphosphino)amine, dppa, or bis(diphenylphosphino)methane, dppm, to give the complex [pt(c^n)cl(dppa)], 2, or [pt(c^n)c...
15 صفحه اولMiniature gas sensor for monitoring biological space environments
A versatile gas sensor for use in gravitational studies and/or long-term monitoring of biological systems in space is described. The sensor combines two diode lasers in a compact, low power package for quantitative, simultaneous measurements of oxygen, carbon dioxide and potentially, water vapor. Wavelength modulation spectroscopy(WMS) combined with digital signal processor (DSP) control allows...
