Citizen robots : biopolitics, the computer, and the Vietnam period
TL;DR: In this article, the authors argue that the Vietnam War coincided with an intense period of technological change in the US that marked a significant turning point in the relationship between the citizen and the state.

Journal ArticleDOI
The Environmental Footprint of War
TL;DR: In this article, the direct impacts of war on the physical landscape and why the magnitude of disturbance has increased significantly over the past century are discussed. But despite the large magnitude of landscape disturbance associated with modern warfare, it is seldom recognised as a significant form of anthropogenic disturbance.

On the Relation between Habitat Selection and Species Diversity
TL;DR: Puerto Rico has nearly as many bird species per layer as Panama and the temperate regions, but the Puerto Rican species appear to recognize fewer layers and certainly subdivide habitats much less, so different habitats are likely to have quite similar species in Puerto Rico, unlike Panama and temperate United States.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Number of Bird Species in Some Tropical Forests
TL;DR: The number of species of birds recorded was not measurably affected by the tree species diversity or the length of the dry season, but a larger proportion of the total forest species known to occur in the region as a whole was found in the drier areas, whereas only about 50% were recorded in the wetter areas.
