In both species, experimental manipulation of substrate density, but not of the likelihood of conspecific presence, a...

متن کاملUsing Twitter data for demographic research
BACKGROUND Social media data is a promising source of social science data. However, deriving the demographic characteristics of users and dealing with the nonrandom, nonrepresentative populations from which they are drawn represent challenges for social scientists. OBJECTIVE Given the growing use of social media data in social science research, this paper asks two questions: 1) To what extent a...
متن کاملSome simple techniques helpful in ant research.
Eight simple techniques which may be helpful in ant research are presented. They facilitate: (1) collecting ground-nesting ants; (2) prompting ants to go out of their nest chambers; (3) introducing ants into a test tube; (4) recapturing ants during their mass escape in the laboratory; (5) keeping tidy foraging areas of artificial ant nests; (6) keeping high level of air humidity in foraging are...
