Tree morphological characteristics, particularly straightness and lean, significantly influence the value of commercial products that can be obtained. Despite this, they are not usually evaluated in timber field inventories because traditional techniques labor-intensive largely subjective, hence use these parameters is limited to research genetic breeding programs. Here, a non-destructive, full...

Zooplankton play a pivotal role in connecting primary producers and high trophic levels, changes their temporal spatial distribution may affect the entire marine ecosystem. The seasonal taxonomic composition patterns of mesozooplankton Bohai Bay were investigated relation to number water parameters. is eutrophic semi-enclosed bay with dynamic physico-chemical conditions influenced by terrestria...

Abstract The otoliths of teleosts are part the inner ear. They related to balance system and also mechanical components sound transmission, responsible for hearing in fish. Their morphology is determined by function they perform influenced environmental factors. In this context, our goal was to: analyse possible morphological changes sagitta Micropogonias furnieri (Desmarest, 1823) during its o...

Otoliths are considered as very useful structures of fishes for various studies. This investigation was aimed to compare morphometric parameters between right and left otoliths of males and females fishes amongst four species belong to the family Carangidae from the northern Persian Gulf. The morphometric parameters such as weight, length, width, area and perimeter were measured and then compar...
