Zugstrategien von Rohrsängern, Rohrammer und Feldsperling
ISBN: 9783639106862 / Niemiecki / Miękka / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Anhand mehr als 10-jahriger Fangdaten an der Vogelberingungsstation Hohenau-Ringelsdorf im ostlichen Niederosterreich wurden Zugstrategien von Sumpf-, Schilf-, Teich- und Drosselrohrsanger, Rohrammer und Feldsperling untersucht. Die Arten unterscheiden sich einerseits in ihren grundlegenden Zugstrategien (Langstreckenzieher, Kurzstreckenzieher und Stand-/Strichvogel), andererseits gibt es aber auch innerhalb der Rohrsanger Unterschiede im Verhalten am Zug. Aufgrund der Fettdepots und der Verweildauer sowie der Fangzahlen am Durchzug konnen diese Strategien mit Hilfe von Beringungsdaten...

Marine Mammals in East Malaysia
ISBN: 9783639222081 / Angielski / Miękka / 284 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This monograph provides the first comprehensive data on the current status and distribution of marine mammals in East Malaysia waters. Marine mammals are diverse, with 12 of the total 21 species confirmed in these waters observed during boat and aerial surveys. The spinner dolphin is the most commonly sighted and abundant species in open waters. In inshore waters, Irrawaddy dolphin is the most frequently sighted and the only species found upstream. The Indo-Pacific humpback dolphin and dugong are probably low in density and their distribution may be restricted to certain shallow bays. The...

Effect of Dizinon on the Biology of Fish
ISBN: 9783639164572 / Angielski / Miękka / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. It is uncontroversial that the main source of best protein in our diet is fish. But unfortunately fish is threatened by a variety of pollutants whether they are effluents containing heavy metal ions or insecticides. Although insecticides have rendered valuable assistance in field of agriculture their harmful effects are also well known. Because of the non biodegradable nature of the chlorinated insecticides they were replaced by organophosphates such as Diazinon marketed under many trade names, basodin, nucidal, neocidal etc. Nevertheless, the OPs have caused many side effects on non target...

Brazil's Hushed Forests
ISBN: 9783639227017 / Angielski / Miękka / 88 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Tropical forests provide refuge to some of the world's poorest communities. The increasing dependence on fauna resources due to increasing access to economic markets and the growth of human populations have left many species threatened and vulnerable to extinction. Both subsistence and commercial hunting result in the depletion of fauna, which can have detrimental effects on remaining vertebrate populations, plant regeneration and ecosystem dynamics. Before an effective management strategy can be implemented, an understanding of the culture, history and drivers behind hunting in Brazil is...

The Platypus (Ornithorhynchus anatinus)
ISBN: 9783639228373 / Angielski / Miękka / 60 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The platypus is a unique Australian animal that belongs to the group known as monotremes, a group of mammals that diverged from marsupial and placental mammals some 140 million years ago. First recorded by European colonists in 1797 outside Sydney, it was not until 1884, after much debate and controversy, that it was finally determined to be an egg-laying mammal. The platypus has been impacted by human activities since the time of European settlement in Australia. They were hunted for their fur up until the early 1900s, and many drowned in the fish nets of the early freshwater fishing...

The Evolution of Primary Sexual Characters in Animals
ISBN: 9780195325553 / Angielski / Twarda / 552 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Primary sexual traits, those structures and processes directly involved in reproduction, are some of the most diverse, specialized, and bizarre in the animal kingdom. Moreover, reproductive traits are often species-specific, suggesting that they evolved very rapidly. This diversity, long the province of taxonomists, has recently attracted broader interest from evolutionary biologists, especially those interested in sexual selection and the evolution of reproductive strategies. Primary sexual characters were long assumed to be the product of natural selection, exclusively. A recent...

Fungal Biocontrol: The growing emphasis on environmental and food safety issues has intensified interest in the development of biological control as a means for controlling pests. Biocontrol offers an attractive alternative to the use of chemical pesticides in crop protection. The effective use of natural enemies in biological control programs is contingent upon understanding their ecology and that of their targets as well as their interaction with production practices. Diseases form an important component of the natural enemy complex of spider mites and can be exploited for their control....

Roe Deer Reintroduction to the Southern Edge of Their Range
ISBN: 9783639236781 / Angielski / Miękka / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Reintroduction programs have become one of the major conservation methods worldwide in the effort to protect threatened species and rehabilitate ecosystems. However, success rates are generally low, often due to information deficiency on the ecological requirements of the reintroduced species. It has been demonstrated that habitat quality can be the most important factor in determining reintroduction success, emphasizing the need for comprehensive feasibility studies in reintroduction programs. Roe deer (Capreolus capreolus) were driven to extinction in the East Mediterranean, their ...

An extensively revised third edition of this introduction to neuroethology - the neuronal basis of animal behaviour - for zoology, biology and psychology undergraduate students. The book focuses on the roles of individual nerve cells in behaviour, from simple startle responses to complex behaviours such as route learning by rats and singing by crickets and birds. It begins by examining the relationship between brains and behaviour, and showing how study of specialised behaviours reveals neuronal mechanisms that control behaviour. Information processing by nerve cells is introduced using...

Dabei lebt keine Ameise allein, sondern immer in Gesellschaften zusammen, da sie allein sonst nicht uberleben kann. Das gut funktionierende Zusammenleben setzt auch voraus, dass die Ameisen nicht nur etwas miteinander, sondern fureinander tun, indem sie eine reproduktive Arbeitsteilung verwirklichen. Zu dieser Arbeitsteilung im Ameisenstaat gehort beispielweise der Nahrungserwerb (mit Ausnahme im Winterschlaf), die Brutpflege, der Nestbau, die Verteidigung usw. In der...

Lernaea (anchor worms) are parasites that infect fish and one of the main problems with them is that they increase the risk of attracting other diseases. The anchor worms can cause serious damage to a fish and can eventual kill the fish themselves, but anchor worms are only seldom the cause of death in fish with anchor worm since the damage weakens the fish and opens it up for other diseases that end up killing the fish. This book in hand provides guideline to research scientist of zoology and fish culturist.
