With a specific focus on eastern Jordan, the Epipalaeolithic Foragers in Azraq Project explores changing hunter gatherer strategies, behaviours and adaptations to this vast area throughout the Late Pleistocene.
A case study of performance-based contracting in Uganda illustrates the importance of effective implementation, and also of understanding the emergent behaviours and adaptations of key actors which can take place in response to such intervention [ 36].
Alzheimer's disease, also known as AD, is a neuro-degenerative disease that affects cognitive functions, further impacting patients' behaviour and social adaptation.
The response to environmental stress involves a synergy between behaviour and physiological adaptation (Hart 1990; Hoffmann and Parsons 1991; Lomborg et al. 2008).
We propose that this adaptive advantage promotes clonal expansion and invasive behaviour and that these adaptations are necessary for evolution of invasive epithelial cancers.
This paper proposes a Statecharts-based development process for mobile agents, which allows for a seamless transition from the specification of mobile agent behaviour to its implementation and adaptation to target mobile agent systems.
Children may be more vulnerable due to lack of proper care and adaptation behaviour [ 30], whereas older patients may be more at risk due to a 'less developed thermoregulation or their low self-care ability', which may be compounded by health comorbidities [ 35].
Motivation plays a powerful role in guiding human decision-making and behaviour, including adaptation to climate change.
A variety of additional factors may contribute to such deviations from predictions, including oceanographic variability in dispersal pathways, timing and location of hatching and larval release, larval behaviour and mortality, and local adaptation (Faurby and Barber 2012).
These baseline findings can be used to advocate for the implementation of a comprehensive range of strategies that recognise the addictive nature of tobacco smoking and address attitude and behaviour change, environmental adaptations and effective implementation of the policy.
