the place of iranian public diplomacy in central asia
چکیده: نسبت به کارکرد و ماهیت دیپلماسی عمومی در جهان امروز نظریه های متعددی بیان گردیده و جایگاه آن در کنار نظریه های دیگر در محافل آکادمیک و دانشگاهی بررسی و تحلیل گردیده است. نظر به اهمیت دیپلماسی عمومی و جایگاه آن در سیاست خارجی ایران این نوشتار با تمرکز بر دیپلماسی عمومی در منطقه آسیای مرکزی تهیه و تنظیم شده است. این ضرورت از آنجا ناشی می شود که اولاً مفهوم دیپلماسی عمومی در سیاست خارجی ای...
15 صفحه اولBalancing Energy Budget in a Central-Place Forager: Which Habitat to Select in a Heterogeneous Environment?
Foraging animals are influenced by the distribution of food resources and predation risk that both vary in space and time. These constraints likely shape trade-offs involving time, energy, nutrition, and predator avoidance leading to a sequence of locations visited by individuals. According to the marginal-value theorem (MVT), a central-place forager must either increase load size or energy con...
متن کاملScale-dependent effects of habitat on movements and path structure of reef sharks at a predator-dominated atoll.
The effects of habitat on the ecology, movements, and foraging strategies of marine apex predators are largely unknown. We used acoustic telemetry to quantify the movement patterns of blacktip reef sharks (Carcharhinus melanopterus) at Palmyra Atoll National Wildlife Refuge, in the Pacific Ocean. Sharks had relatively small home ranges over a timescale of days to weeks (0.55 +/- 0.24 km2) and s...
متن کاملCharacterizing habitat suitability for a central‐place forager in a dynamic marine environment
Characterizing habitat suitability for a marine predator requires an understanding of the environmental heterogeneity and variability over the range in which a population moves during a particular life cycle. Female California sea lions (Zalophus californianus) are central-place foragers and are particularly constrained while provisioning their young. During this time, habitat selection is a fu...
متن کاملInteractive Drivers of Activity in a Free-Ranging Estuarine Predator
Animal activity patterns evolve as an optimal balance between energy use, energy acquisition, and predation risk, so understanding how animals partition activity relative to extrinsic environmental fluctuations is central to understanding their ecology, biology and physiology. Here we use accelerometry to examine the degree to which activity patterns of an estuarine teleost predator are driven ...
