Tissue loss induces switching of feeding mode in spionid polychaetes

Sediment resuspension and boundary layer flow dramatically increase the growth rates of interface-feeding spionid polychaetes

Most spionid polychaetes switch from surface deposit feeding to suspension feeding as current velocity and the flux of suspended food particles increase in the benthic boundary layer. This hydrodynamically mediated feeding behavior has been well studied, but the impact of flow on the growth rates of juvenile spionids has not been tested extensively. I performed two experiments in counter-rotati...

Mode Switching

In many control applications, a speciic set of output tracking controllers of satisfactory performance have already been designed and must be used. When such a collection of control modes is available, an important problem is to be able to accomplish a variety of high level tasks by appropriately switching between the low-level control modes. In this paper, we deene a concept of control modes, ...

the effect analysis of proficiency on language - switching in iranian efl learners writing

abstract in a protocol analysis of second language writing from 20 adult english as a foreign language (efl) iranian students, this research observed how language-switching (l-s), i.e., first language use in l2 writing, was affected by l2 proficiency. switching interactively between first (l1) and second (l2) languages has been recognized as one of the salient characteristics of l2 writing....
