(Springer, 2014)In this paper, we address the evaluation of algorithms for partial shape retrieval using a large-scale simulated benchmark of partial views which are used as queries. Since the scanning of real objects is a time-consuming ...
-
(ROYAL SOCIETY, 2007-02-28)The perspective of 'biocomplexity' in the form of 'coupled natural and human systems' represents a resource for the future conservation of biodiversity hotspots in three direct ways: ( i) modelling the impact on biodiversity ...
-
(Springer, 2017)Biological nitrogen fixation is a key ecosystem function incorporating new nitrogen (N) during primary successions. Increasing evidence from tropical and northern temperate forests shows that phosphorus (P) and molybdenum ...
-
(Elsevier, 2015)Rufous-collared sparrows (Zonotrichia capensis peruviensis) from valleys in the Atacama Desert of Chile, live in an extremely stable environment, and exhibit overlap in molt and reproduction, with valley-specific differences ...
-
(SOCIEDAD BIOLOGIA CHILE, 2006-06)There is an exceptional group of alpine peatlands in the world situated in the and grasslands of the central Andes. The peatlands in northern Chile occur in the most arid part of their range. Members of the Juncaceae are ...
-
(ECOLOGICAL SOC AMER, 2011-02)The abundance of exotic plants is thought to be limited by competition with resident species (including plants and generalist herbivores). In contrast, observations in semiarid Chile suggest that a native generalist rodent, ...
-
(SPRINGER, 2005-03)Soil nutrient availability directly enhances vegetative growth, flowering, and fruiting in alpine ecosystems. However, the impacts of nutrient addition on pollinator visitation, which could affect seed output indirectly, ...

Breeding biology of the Thorn-tailed Rayadito (Furnariidae) in south-temperate rainforests of Chile (COOPER ORNITHOLOGICAL SOC, 2005-02)We conducted a study of the breeding biology of the Thorn-tailed Rayadito (Aphrastura spinicauda) in secondary forests on the continental island of Chiloe (42degreesS), southern Chile. Rayaditos are small insectivorous ...
-
(SOCIEDAD BIOLOGIA CHILE, 2006-06)Plant breeding systems are considered to reflect species' life history characteristics, selection due to biotic or abiotic factors, pollination conditions, or a combination of these. Reproductive systems may vary over ...
-
(ELSEVIER, 2005-01-17)The presence of guanaco (Lama guanicoe. Muller 1776. Camelidae) in forests of Nothofagus pumilio (Poepp. et Endl.) Krasser. (lenga) in Tierra del Fuego has been associated with browsing damage in the regeneration of these ...
-
(2005-01)Se presenta una reconstrucción del clima continental del sur de Sudamérica, sobre la base de un análisis fisionómico foliar de 15 tafofloras, provenientes en su mayoría de yacimientos de Chile y Argentina. A partir de las ...
-
(ELSEVIER, 2007-12-15)As matrices form the major component of landscapes mosaics, assessing regeneration suitability for native species within matrices is relevant for conservation and mandatory if native remnant patches are scarce, small and ...
-
(Socieda de Biología de Chile, 2008-12)Las turberas son ecosistemas reconocidos mundialmente por actuar como grandes reservorios de agua dulce, afectando el clima y la hidrología local; por ser sumideros de carbono; por albergar especies únicas, contribuyendo ...
-
(SPRINGER, 2006-07)The decrease in temperature with increasing elevation may determine the altitudinal tree distribution in different ways: affecting survival through freezing temperatures, by a negative carbon balance produced by lower ...
-
(niversidad de Concepción, Facultad de Ciencias Naturales y Oceanográficas, 2015)The genus Carpobrotus was represented on the Chilean flora only by native species C. chilensis. However, we found that the species native of South Africa C. edulis is naturalized in coastal areas. We report it for first ...
-
(2006)Se realizó un catastro de los mamíferos, aves, reptiles y anfibios presentes en seis hábitats de la Reserva Nacional Futaleufú, provincia de Palena, Chile. Estos hábitats se encuentran desde la cota 700 hasta los 2000 ...
-
(Elsevier, 2015)We use macroscopic charcoal and sediment geochemistry analysis of two proximal upper montane lakes located at 42 degrees S in southwest Tasmania, Australia, to test the role of the southern hemisphere westerly winds (SWW) ...
-
(Springer Berlin, 2008-06)Fire activity has varied globally and continuously since the last glacial maximum (LGM) in response to long-term changes in global climate and shorter-term regional changes in climate, vegetation, and human land use. ...
