Translation from Spanish:
BIOSAF Sc47 has been incorporated into the diets of rabbits, sheep, cattle, and pigs, where has allowed a better use of the food, high consumption and better productive performance in general. Its mode of action is not full... Read More about ¿Existe un papel para biosaf en las dietas de equinos?.

Size constraints in a real food web: predator, parasite and prey body-size relationships (2002)
Journal Article
Leaper, R., & Huxham, M. (2002). Size constraints in a real food web: predator, parasite and prey body-size relationships. Oikos, 99(3), 443-456. https://doi.org/10.1034/j.1600-0706.2002.10888.x

In the absence of well-resolved food webs that include both information on predators and parasites, body-size has been proposed as the biological mechanism underlying the assumption of a trophic hierarchy in the cascade model and its variants. We sho... Read More about Size constraints in a real food web: predator, parasite and prey body-size relationships.

Incorporating spatial criteria into optimal reserve network selection. (2002)
Journal Article

Considering the spatial location of sites that are to be selected for inclusion in a protected reserve network may be necessary to facilitate dispersal and long-term persistence of species in the selected sites. This paper presents an integer program... Read More about Incorporating spatial criteria into optimal reserve network selection..

The relationship between carbon and biovolume in marine microbial mesocosms under different nutrient regimes (2002)
Journal Article
Davidson, K., Roberts, E., & Gilpin, L. (2002). The relationship between carbon and biovolume in marine microbial mesocosms under different nutrient regimes. European Journal of Phycology, 37(4), 501-507. https://doi.org/10.1017/s096702620200389x

Nutrient manipulation experiments were conducted on a natural planktonic community in outdoor mesocosms. Inorganic
nitrogen (N) and silicon (Si) were added to achieve N: Si ratios of 1:1 and 4: 1. Total particulate carbon (PC) biomass of
the microb... Read More about The relationship between carbon and biovolume in marine microbial mesocosms under different nutrient regimes.

Primary Production and Carbon uptake dynamics in the vicinity of south Georgia - balancing carbon fixation and removal (2002)
Journal Article

Primary production was measured at a series of stations in austral summer 1996 in the vicinity of South Georgia. Five stations were occupied along a 700 km transect southeastwards towards the western tip of South Georgia. Three stations were located...

Dense aggregations of tube-building polychaetes: response to small-scale disturbances. (2002)
Journal Article
Bolam, S. G., & Fernandes, T. (2002). Dense aggregations of tube-building polychaetes: response to small-scale disturbances. Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 269(2), 197-222. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0022-0981%2802%2900003-5

Many species of tube-building polychaetes form dense aggregations or ‘patches’ within marine soft-bottom habitats. Although the ecological importance of such patches has been well studied, the effect of small-scale disturbances within patches has not...

Taxon, 51(1), 131-142. https://doi.org/10.2307/1554970

Types of databases commonly used for handling taxonomic data are compared. It is shown that none of the existing types of databases fully support the requirements of taxonomic data. The results of this comparison provide a rationale for the design an...

Methods for selecting sites to be included in reserve networks generally neglect the spatial location of sites, often resulting in highly fragmented networks. This restricts the possibility of dispersal between sites, which for many species may be es... Read More about Incorporating connectivity into reserve selection procedures..
