Intraspecific variability in the parasitoid wasp Trichogramma chilonis : can we predict the outcome of hybridization? (2012)
Journal Article
Benvenuto, C., Tabone, E., Vercken, E., Sorbier, N., Colombel, E., Warot, S., …Ris, N. (2012). Intraspecific variability in the parasitoid wasp Trichogramma chilonis : can we predict the outcome of hybridization?. Evolutionary Applications, 5(5), 498-510. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1752-4571.2012.00279.x

In the framework of biological control, the selection of effective natural enemies
determines the final pest control. Thus, the genetic improvement of biocontrol
agents could enhance the efficiency of biocontrol programs. Although promising,
this ap... Read More about Intraspecific variability in the parasitoid wasp Trichogramma chilonis : can we predict the outcome of hybridization?.

Cebus Phylogenetic relationships: A preliminary reassessment of the diversity of the untufted capuchin monkeys (2012)
Journal Article
Boubli, J., Rylands, A., Farias, I., Alfaro, M., & Alfaro, J. (2012). Cebus Phylogenetic relationships: A preliminary reassessment of the diversity of the untufted capuchin monkeys. American Journal of Primatology, 74(4), 381-393. https://doi.org/10.1002/ajp.21998

The untufted, or gracile, capuchin monkeys are currently classified in four species, Cebus albifrons, C.
capucinus, C. olivaceus, and C. kaapori, with all but C. kaaporihaving numerous described subspecies.
The taxonomy is controversial and their ge... Read More about Cebus Phylogenetic relationships: A preliminary reassessment of the diversity of the untufted capuchin monkeys.

An investigation of the performance of informative samples preservation methods (2012)
Book Chapter
Xiong, J., & Li, Y. (2012). An investigation of the performance of informative samples preservation methods. In Z. Qian, L. Cao, W. Su, T. Wang, & H. Yang (Eds.), Recent Advances in Computer Science and Information Engineering (13-18). Springer Berlin Heidelberg. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-25781-0_3

Instance-based learning algorithms make prediction/generalization based on the stored instances. Storing all instances of large data size applications causes huge memory requirements and slows program execution speed; it may make the prediction proce...

Socio-economic variables as indicators of pond conservation value in an urban landscape (2012)
Journal Article
Gledhill, D., & James, P. (2012). Socio-economic variables as indicators of pond conservation value in an urban landscape. Urban Ecosystems, 15(4), 849-861. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11252-012-0242-7

Despite their designation as nationally important habitats in the UK, ponds are among the least well studied of urban habitats. Ponds, as well as existing in a physical landscape, are part of human socio-economic landscapes, especially those in towns...

The use of public transport in coastal Australia : Modes of travel to work and greenhouse emissions (2012)
Journal Article
Leao, S., & Elkadi, H. (2012). The use of public transport in coastal Australia : Modes of travel to work and greenhouse emissions. Advanced materials research, 347-53, 4034-4044. https://doi.org/10.4028/www.scientific.net/AMR.347-353.4034

Commuting to work is one of the most important and regular routines of transportation in towns and cities. From a geographic perspective, the length of people’s commute is influenced, to some degree, by the spatial separation of their home and workpl...

Using the skills and knowledge of built environment professionals to strengthen the capacity of vulnerable communities (2012)
Journal Article
Pathirage, C. (2012). Using the skills and knowledge of built environment professionals to strengthen the capacity of vulnerable communities. International Journal of Disaster Resilience in the Built Environment, 3(3), 196-198. https://doi.org/10.1108/ijdrbe.2012.43503caa.001

The world's exposure to hazards, whether of natural or man-made origins and impact on communities is ever rising as evident from recent disasters. Increasing frequency and intensity of disasters have also resulted in severe disruptions of built envir...

Fluorescence lifetime imaging of propranolol uptake in living glial C6 cells (2012)
Journal Article
Bisby, R., Botchway, S., Crisostomo, A., Parker, A., & Scherer, K. (2012). Fluorescence lifetime imaging of propranolol uptake in living glial C6 cells. Journal of Spectroscopy, 27(5-6), 533-540. https://doi.org/10.1155/2012/518353

Uptake of the β-blocker drug propranolol by living glial C6 cells has been observed using fluorescence lifetime imaging with two-photon excitation at 630 nm. Both uptake and release of propranolol occur within minutes and are temperature dependent, b... Read More about Fluorescence lifetime imaging of propranolol uptake in living glial C6 cells.
