DEEP OCEAN DRIVERS BETTER EXPLAIN HABITAT PREFERENCES OF SPERM WHALES PHYSETER MACROCEPHALUS THAN BEAKED WHALES IN THE BAY OF BISCAY

Deep ocean drivers better explain habitat preferences of sperm whales Physeter macrocephalus than beaked whales in the Bay of Biscay

Abstract Species Distribution Models are commonly used with surface dynamic environmental variables as proxies for prey distribution to 36x12x24 wall cabinet characterise marine top predator habitats.For oceanic species that spend lot of time at depth, surface variables might not be relevant to predict deep-dwelling prey distributions.We hypothesis

Strontium Oxide Deposited onto a Load-Bearable and Porous Titanium Matrix as Dynamic and High-Surface-Contact-Area Catalysis for Transesterification

Strontium oxide (SrO) deposited onto a porous titanium (Ti)-based scaffold (P-Ti) is a promising and novel approach for high-throughput transesterification.Notably, a highly porous and calcinated scaffold provides a load-bearable support for a continuous process, while the calcinated SrO catalyst, as it is well distributed inside the porous matrix,

Identification of genes involved in a water stress response in timothy and mapping of orthologous loci in perennial ryegrass

In order to characterize the response of selected grasses to water stress, relative water content (RWC) in leaves and quantum efficiency of photosystem 2 (Fv/Fm) were measured in Phleum pratense L., P.bertolonii DC.and P.phleoides H.Karst.during 6 d of water stress.The results indicated differential responses to water stress among the three Phleum

An investigation of tendon strains in jersey finger injury load cases using a finite element neuromuscular human body model

Introduction: A common hand injury in American football, rugby and basketball is the so-called jersey finger injury (JFI), in which an eccentric overextension of the distal interphalangeal joint leads to an avulsion of the connected musculus flexor digitorum profundus (FDP) tendon.In the field of automotive safety assessment, finite element (FE) ne
