Background. Despite a fifty-year failure of paleontologists to find a viable connection between geomagnetic polarity reversals and evolutionary patterns, recent paleobiology databases show that the early appearance, radiation, and diversification of Paleozoic vertebrates tends to occur during periods having frequent collapses of the Earth’s...
Understanding animal behaviour through psychophysical experimentation is often limited by insufficiently realistic stimulus representation. Important physical dimensions of signals and cues, especially those that are outside the spectrum of human perception, can be difficult to standardize and control separately with currently available recording...
In this study, we present a new experiment in order to study the Lombard effect in telepresence robotics. In this experiment, one person talks with a robot controled remotely by someone in a different room. The remote pilot (R) is immersed in both environments, while the local interlocutor (L) interacts directly with the robot. In this context,...
Background. To study the effect of Bone morphogenetic protein 15 on differentiation potential of mesenchymal stem cell derived from human follicular fluid to oocyte like cell. Methods. Human FF derived cells were collected from 78 women in assisted fertilization program, and cultured in differentiation medium containing human recombinant BMP15...
The water management districts in Florida are required by s. 373.042, F.S. to establish minimum flow and levels (MFLs) for a priority list of water bodies that is updated each year. These MFLs are established for water bodies to prevent “significant harm” to the water resources or ecology because of withdrawals for beneficial use, and can...
