While social and behavioural contexts are known to affect the acoustic structure of vocal signals in several mammal species, few studies have investigated context-related acoustic variation during inter-sexual advertisement and/or intra-sexual competition.Here we recorded male fallow deer groans during the breeding season and investigated how key a
Troop education and avian influenza surveillance in military barracks in Ghana, 2011
Abstract Background Influenza A viruses that cause highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) also infect humans.In many developing countries such as Ghana, poultry Girls Christmas Dress and humans live in close proximity in both the general and military populations, increasing risk for the spread of HPAI from birds to humans.Respiratory infections s
Numerical Study on Aerodynamic Characteristics of Parachute Models for Future Jupiter Exploration
At present, the key technical researches are carried out for the future exploration missions to dense atmosphere planets such as Jupiter.As a necessary aerodynamic decelerator for planetary exploration missions with dense atmosphere, parachutes face several big challenges, such as complex transonic/supersonic unsteady aerodynamic characteristics.Th
Placement of Triblidiaceae in Rhytismatales and comments on unique ascospore morphologies in Leotiomycetes (Fungi, Ascomycota)
Triblidiaceae is a family of uncommonly encountered, non-lichenized discomycetes.A recent classification circumscribed the family to include Triblidium (4 spp.and 1 subsp.), Huangshania (2 spp.) and Pseudographis (2 spp.and 1 var.).The apothecia of these fungi are persistent and drought-tolerant; they possess stromatic, highly melanized covering la
