Download or read book Biology of the Rex Sole Glyptocephalus Zachirus Lockington in Waters Off Oregon written by Michael J. Hosie and published by . This book was released on 1975 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Data are presented on the life history and population dynamics of rex sole (Glyptocephalus zachirus Lockington) collected from Oregon waters between September 1969 and October 1973. Length-weight relationships vary little between sexes or with time of year. Otolith annuli form primarily from January through May and were used for age determination. Age and length are highly correlated (r = 0.9945 for males and 0.9864 for females), with females growing faster and living longer than males. Estimates of total instantaneous mortality rate (Z) appear less variable when calculated by the catch-curve method (mean Z of 0.64 for males and 0.51 for females), than by the Jackson method. Age at 50% maturity occurs at 16 cm (about 3 years) for males and at 24 cm (about 5 years) for females. Spawning off northern Oregon occurs from January through June, with a peak in March-April. Fecundity is correlated (r = 0.9620) with length of fish. There were 15 recaptures (0.59%) from 2,537 fish tagged off northern Oregon during March and June 1970. Maximum movement of recaptured fish was only 53.9 km, but the low recovery precludes definite conclusions. Twenty loci were detected by starch-gel electrophoretic analysis using rex sole muscle tissue. Of these, three loci were polymorphic, but showed no discernible variation between collections from northern, central, and southern Oregon in April 1973.
Download or read book The Biology of Chameleons written by Krystal A. Tolley and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2013-11-16 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: They change color depending on their mood. They possess uniquely adapted hands and feet distinct from other tetrapods. They feature independently movable eyes. This comprehensive volume delves into these fascinating details and thorough research about one of the most charismatic families of reptilesÑChameleonidae. Written for professional herpetologists, scholars, researchers, and students, this book takes readers on a voyage across time to discover everything that is known about chameleon biology: anatomy, physiology, adaptations, ecology, behavior, biogeography, phylogeny, classification, and conservation. A description of the natural history of chameleons is given, along with the fossil record and typical characteristics of each genus. The state of chameleons in the modern world is also depicted, complete with new information on the most serious threats to these remarkable reptiles.

Download or read book Invasion Dynamics written by Cang Hui and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017-01-26 with total page 607 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humans have moved organisms around the world for centuries but it is only relatively recently that invasion ecology has grown into a mainstream research field. This book examines both the spread and impact dynamics of invasive species, placing the science of invasion biology on a new, more rigorous, theoretical footing, and proposing a concept of adaptive networks as the foundation for future research. Biological invasions are considered not as simple actions of invaders and reactions of invaded ecosystems, but as co-evolving complex adaptive systems with emergent features of network complexity and invasibility. Invasion Dynamics focuses on the ecology of invasive species and their impacts in recipient social-ecological systems. It discusses not only key advances and challenges within the traditional domain of invasion ecology, but introduces approaches, concepts, and insights from many other disciplines such as complexity science, systems science, and ecology more broadly. It will be of great value to invasion biologists analyzing spread and/or impact dynamics as well as other ecologists interested in spread processes or habitat management.
