We did not add any individuals in the control enclosures as a density control (see Connell 1983 for a comprehensive discussion on additive versus replacement designs).
The general design of this study is additive to exclude secondary effects by intraspecific competition by conspecifics in the control enclosures.
Indeed, the Grucci factory, in Brookhaven Hamlet, is set in a tightly controlled enclosure that resembles a military test site.
The sensor (silica or HA) was clamped in a temperature controlled enclosure allowing the temperature to be maintained at 36.8°C for all experiments.
"It's such an irresponsible thing to do, as pet reptiles need to be kept in specific climate controlled enclosures to stay healthy and to carry out their normal behaviours". Bearded dragons, which have a life expectancy of 10 to 15 years, are one of the most popular forms of lizard in captivity in the UK.
The presented acoustic-centric technique for the sensing and control of enclosure noise, by being based on the fundamental acoustic radiation shape the monopole, thus overcoming the need for any information of the noise source (other than its approximate size) in the construction of orthogonal functions contributing to the noise within the enclosure.
Partially sighted bears did not differ from able-bodied controls in enclosure use or behaviour.
It is concluded that the proposed optimization approach provides a systematic and effective tool to optimize the locations of TARs in noise control inside enclosures.
In its simplest form, the hierarchy of controls specifies that engineering controls (including substitution, enclosure, isolation, and ventilation) are preferred to the use of personal protective equipment (such as protective clothing and respirators).
Since, the paper concerns climatic cyclic conditions, a study is accomplished on investigating different material properties (thermal conductivity, diffusivity, solubility) for moisture control inside an enclosure.
