Near-Optimal Foraging in the Pacific Cicada Killer
This study evaluated foraging effectiveness of Pacific cicada killers (Sphecius convallis) by comparing observed prey loads to that predicted by an optimality model. Female S. convallis preyed exclusively on the cicada Tibicen parallelus, resulting in a mean loaded flight muscle ratio (FMR) of 0.187 (N = 46). This value lies just above the marginal level, and only seven wasps (15%) were below 0...
متن کاملSimulation of entrainment near a density stratified layer: Laboratory experiment and LIDAR observation
In this paper a simple qualitative model of the growth of a mixed layer adjacent to a uniform layer with a stably stratified layer is presented. The depth variations of mixed layer can be estimated from direct measurements. The Entrainment of a stably stratified layer into a turbulent mixed layer in a confined region was studied in laboratory for different Richardson numbers. The internal waves...
متن کاملInfluence of composite period and date of observation on phenological metrics extracted from MODIS data
Deriving date-specific phenometrics from different multi-day MODIS composite data can potentially yield very different results. The objectives of this study were therefore to quantify the differences between (i) using 8-day vs. 16-day MODIS data and (ii) using the date-flag in the 8-day MOD09 data when estimating key phenological metrics for Skukuza, South Africa. After applying Savitsky-Golay ...
متن کاملImproving the reliability of a combined phenological time series by analyzing observation quality.
Collecting phenological data is a slow process. Although such data have been collected by a number of organizations, the reliability of these data is not known because the data-generating process cannot be repeated. No further observations to improve the reliability can be obtained. However, the data usually consist of several overlapping observation series and this overlap can be utilized to c...
متن کاملCubeSail for Near Earth Object Observation
Microsatellites known as “CubeSats” have recently been developed to enable comparatively inexpensive and timely access to space for small payloads. As a new standard for small satellites, the CubeSat has shown great promise for space applications such as earth observation, planetary science and space physics mission. In this paper a “CubeSail” mission – a CubeSat deployed with a solar sail –for...
