Patterns of cranial shape variation in the Papionini (Primates: Cercopithecinae).
Traditional classifications of the Old World monkey tribe Papionini (Primates: Cercopithecinae) recognized the mangabey genera Cercocebus and Lophocebus as sister taxa. However, molecular studies have consistently found the mangabeys to be diphyletic, with Cercocebus and Mandrillus forming a clade to the exclusion of all other papionins. Recent studies have identified cranial and postcranial fe...
متن کاملThe taxonomic implications of cranial shape variation in Homo erectus.
The taxonomic status of Homo erectus sensu lato has been a source of debate since the early 1980s, when a series of publications suggested that the early African fossils may represent a separate species, H. ergaster. To gain further resolution regarding this debate, 3D geometric morphometric data were used to quantify overall shape variation in the cranial vault within H. erectus using a new me...
متن کاملOccupational injuries: Global and local perspectives
Occupational injuries are associated with lots of suffering and loss at individual, community, societal and organizational levels. The World Health Organization (WHO) recently estimated that 20-50% of the workers are exposed to various hazards at work worldwide, and this proportion is likely to be higher in the developing and newly industrialized counties [1]. It has been estimated that 960,000...
متن کاملLocal and Global Perspectives on the New U.S. Farm Policy
The reaction of U.S. farm groups and our trading partners to the new farm bill has been surprisingly frank and sometimes harsh. Many farm groups have given up the argument that farm subsidies are temporary measures needed until good times return. For example, Mississippi Delta cotton farmer Kenneth Hood (who is also chairman of the National Cotton Council) was recently quoted in the Wall Street...
متن کاملLocal and global contributions to shape discrimination
Humans are remarkably sensitive in detecting small deviations from circularity. In tasks involving discrimination between closed contours, either circular in shape or defined by sinusoidal modulations of the circle radius, human performance has been shown to be limited by global processing. We assessed the amount of global pooling for different pattern shapes (different radial modulation freque...
