   Abstract : With the advent of increasingly advanced spectroscopic instruments after the turn of the century, it has become accessible to unravel the structure of instantly ‘vanishing’ nuclei, with lifetimes as short as 1 μs, and responsible for pile-up events in analog electronics. Experimental data has been recorded by the Nuclear Structure Group at Lund University for 48Ca/50Ti + nat. READ MORE

3. 2. Risky places and risky times : vegetation cover and carnivore olfactory cues influence patch selection and antipredator behavior of African ungulates

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental Studies

   Author : Noé Müller-Rowold; [2017]
   Keywords : predation risk; African ungulates; savanna; visibility; scats; Hluhluwe-iMfolozi; patch selection; large carnivore; hunting modes; vigilance; group size;

   Abstract : Foraging behaviour and vigilance of African ungulates are considered to be influenced by their perception of predation risk. In this experiment, I tried to obtain a better understanding of the relative importance of spatial and temporal drivers of perceived predation risk for African ungulates of various sizes. READ MORE
