(ELSEVIER, 2006-08)We investigated the intraspecific variation in basal metabolic rate (BMR) and total evaporative water loss (TEWL) in the omnivorous passerine Zonotrichia capensis from two populations inhabiting regions with different ...
-
(GAUTHIER-VILLARS/EDITIONS ELSEVIER, 2008-08)Plant tolerance is the ability to reduce the negative impact of herbivory on plant fitness. Numerous studies have shown that plant tolerance is affected by nutrient availability, but the effect of soil moisture has received ...

Water economy of three Cinclodes (Furnariidae) species inhabiting marine and freshwater ecosystems (SOCIEDAD BIOLOGIA CHILE, 2004-06)Birds living in desert environments have been the preferred models for the study of physiological adaptations to water scarcity. Passerine birds living in marine coastal habitats face similar problems, yet physiological ...
-
(Wiley, 2020)Population connectivity has a fundamental role in metapopulation dynamics, with important implications in conservation. Easter Island (EI) and Salas y Gomez Island (SG) in the Pacific Ocean are ideal for the study of ...

(Elsevier, 2016)© 2016 Elsevier B.V. The main objective of this article is to analyse the relationship between human well-being (HWB) and ecosystem services (ES). We studied the Río Cruces watershed (Chile) as a social-ecological system ...
-
(2007)Female fecundity increases with body size in a variety of insects, but it is unknown if this generalization applies for kissing bugs. In this study, we evaluate whether gonad weight in, the bloodsucking insect Mepraia ...
-
(COMPANY OF BIOLOGISTS LTD, 2006-10-15)The transition from trot to gallop in quadruped mammals has been widely hypothesized to be a strategy to minimize the energetic costs of running. This view, however, has been challenged by some experimental evidence ...
-
(Springer Netherlands, 2019)Over the last few decades climate change has been gaining importance in international scientific and political debates. However, the social sciences, especially in Latin America, have only lately become interested in the ...
-
(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2019)The central limit theorem indicates that when the sample size goes to infinite, the sampling distribution of means tends to follow a normal distribution; it is the basis for the most usual confidence interval and sample ...
-
(Universidad Sao Paulo, 2020)Objective: to explore the best type of curve or trend model that could explain the epidemiological behavior of the infection by COVID-19 and derive the possible causes that contribute to explain the corresponding model and ...
