(2007)In our study, we asked whether butterflies visiting Chaetanthera lycopodioides (Asteraceae) in the subnival at 3450 m a.s.l. in the central Andes prefer larger floral displays. To answer this question, we compared the ...
-
(2013)We present the first glacier inventory of the Monte San Lorenzo region (47 35'S, 72 18'W) in the southern Patagonian Andes of Chile and Argentina. This region contains the largest and easternmost glaciers at these latitudes ...
-
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2011)A method is developed for estimating F region ion composition from incoherent scatter radar (ISR) measurements during times of frictional ion heating. The technique addresses ion temperature-mass ambiguities in the IS ...
-
(1988)Late-glacial-Holocene forest history of southern Isla Chiloé (latitude 43°10′ S) was reconstructed on the basis of pollen analysis in three profiles (Laguna Soledad, Laguna Chaiguata, Puerto Carmen). Prior to 12,500 yr ...
-
(Institute of Arctic and Alpine Research, 2017)© 2017 Regents of the University of Colorado. We tested the main hypothesis that nutrient accumulation during late stages of postglacial succession would decrease nutrient limitation of diazotrophic activity. We tested ...
-
(Academic Press Inc., 1997)Twenty archaeological campsites intercalated between more than 30 debris flows caused by heavy rainfall events between 6200 and 3100 14C yr B.P. have recently been discovered at Quebrada Puripica in the Atacama Desert of ...
-
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2011)An electrostatic parallel particle-in-cell (EPPIC) code that allows for particle beam injections and multiple boundary conditions is used to investigate the beam-plasma interaction and its manifestations in the incoherent ...
-
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2000)The behavior of substorms as sudden transitions of the magnetosphere is studied using the Bargatze et al. [1985] data set of the solar wind induced electric field vBs and the auroral electrojet index AL. The data set is ...
-
(2006)Low temperatures, short growing seasons, and strong winds, which constrain the abundance and activity of insect pollinators, characterize alpine ecosystems. In northern hemisphere alpine environments, the reproductive ...
-
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2016)©2016. American Geophysical Union. All Rights Reserved. The Unsolved Problems of Magnetospheric Physics Workshop was held in September 2015 in Scarborough, UK. In contrast to most other meetings, people were specifically ...
-
(1994)Experiments were undertaken to obtain information on the effects of season on endocrine function and testicular morphology in male vicunña. Serial blood samples were taken every 15 min over 4-8 h in February and August: ...
-
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2000)Evidence is presented that suggests that there is a significant self-organized criticality (SOC) component in the dynamics of substorms in the magnetosphere. We assume that observations of bursty bulk flows, fast flows, ...
-
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2011)During the last decade, a number of studies have shown that turbulent processes in the plasma sheet are very important for the analysis of the formation of quasi-stable plasma sheet configurations. The existence of this ...
