Stepping-stone restoration plantings can reconcile conservation goals and local land-use needs in highly fragmented ecosystems. We explored how initial planting composition influences recruiting plant species density, diversity, abundance, forest structure a 13-year-old experiment Los Tuxtlas, Veracruz, Mexico. Treatments included eight fenced with animal-dispersed species, wind-dispersed unpla...

Strontium titanate (SrTiO(3)) nanoparticles with well defined cubic shape and sub-10 nm size that are highly dispersible in non-polar organic solvents were successfully synthesized by hydrothermal (HT) processing. Water-soluble titanium complexes and strontium hydroxide were employed as precursors. When the HT process was carried out without oleic acid, the SrTiO(3) particles obtained were rela...

The knowledge-based view of the firm has led to greater theoretical interest in how organizations integrate their knowledge resources embedded in people’s expertise. We examine the knowledge integration problem in geographically dispersed professional organizations in which experts work in project teams. From consideration of coordination costs and local ties, we argue that (1) the organization...
