Journal ArticleDOI
Serum antioxidant levels in wild birds vary in relation to diet, season, life history strategy, and species
TL;DR: There is much variation in antioxidants that is not explained by diet, and this work is able to identify diet-independent effects of species, season/breeding stage, and life history on antioxidant levels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alterations of Na, K and Rb concentrations in Mycenaean pottery and a proposed explanation using X-ray diffraction
TL;DR: In this article, the authors suggest that these differences are due to selective alteration and contamination processes that are indirectly determined by the original firing temperature, and that groups MB and MBKR should be considered as a single reference group.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantitative estimates of tree species selectivity by moose (Alces alces) in a forest landscape
TL;DR: The foraging selectivity of moose was evaluated using three different statistical methods developed to study habitat utilization and the most preferred species were the least abundant, which may indicate that preference depends on plant species composition.
Journal ArticleDOI
HelioPlot, and the treatment of overdispersed (U-Th-Sm)/He data
TL;DR: HelioPlot as mentioned in this paper is a Java application developed for the purpose of plotting U-Th-Sm-He data on ternary diagrams and logratio plots that implements all these calculations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evidence for damage-dependent hygienic behaviour towards Varroa destructor-parasitised brood in the western honey bee, Apis mellifera
Caspar Schöning,Sebastian Gisder,Sven Geiselhardt,Ivonne Kretschmann,Kaspar Bienefeld,Monika Hilker,Elke Genersch +6 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that bees show selective, damage-dependent hygienic behaviour, which may be an economic way for colonies to cope with mite infestation.

Problems of relative growth
TL;DR: This detailed study of the different rates of growth of parts of the body relative to the body as a whole represents Sir Julian Huxley's great contribution to analytical morphology, and it is still a basis for modern investigations in morphometrics and evolutionary biology.

Experiments with Mixtures: Designs, Models and the Analysis of Mixture Data
TL;DR: In this paper, the original Mixture Problem is described and models for exploring the Entire Simplex Factor Space are presented, including matrix algebra, least squares, and the analysis of variance.
New statistical methods for allometry with application to
TL;DR: In this paper, Mosimann et al. presented new statistical methods for the study of size and shape, and used these methods to study the morphology of red-winged blackbirds, Agelaius phoeniceus breeding in Florida.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of dispersion on a sphere
TL;DR: In this article, a series of approximate tests of significance is given for hypotheses about the precision constant K and the polar vector on a sphere, where 8' is the angle between the polar and observation vectors.
