In the absence of a trophy dodo specimen, the researchers focussed on the broader ecological picture — the stuff that fills the private dreams of pollen men and gravel men but is harder to put in a press release.
This and future neck studies, he says, could be combined with other evidence for feeding habits to present an overall ecological picture of sauropods.
By studying and comparing savannah- and rainforest-like regions, we provide a comprehensive ecological picture of MU, that is, a unified framework that reconciles the many contrasting findings observed during the last decade that could apply to a broader geographical area in the tropics and could help us understand the risk of BU for human populations.
In Halverson (2011), trees in these four categories (phylogenetic diagram, segregated organisms, simple progressive tree, and taxa along branches) would be considered to have this feature; the other six (flow chart, dichotomous key, ecological web, pictures, lists and none) would not. 5.
Two hundred and sixty ecological colour pictures representing persons differing in number, age and gender, engaged in relatively static (not effortful) or dynamic (effortful) actions (see some examples in Fig. 1), were presented in the central visual field of a PC screen, randomly mixed with 44 neutral scenarios lacking visible people.
There are few landscape photographs in our final selection, perhaps because it is hard to draw attention to a particular ecological detail when picturing a wide scene.
An updated version of such classic ecological sci-fi pictures as Silent Running, it addresses the need for clean fuel sources at a time when dirty energy is a burning issue.
To do this, the present research compared the ability of a word-based dot-probe task (ie, lower ecological validity) and picture-based dot-probe task (ie, higher ecological validity) to detect attentional biases using generally selected (ie, lower personal relevance) and idiosyncratically selected stimuli (ie, higher personal relevance).
Jeanne tried to picture her ecological granddaughter biking from Ann Arbor.
BachPedlar helpfully includes a quotation from Juliet Schor, of Boston College: "improving working hours provides us with what we call in economics a triple dividend possibility: improving the employment picture, improving ecological outcomes and improving quality of life".
"When you have such a challenging problem, what are you willing to ignore in the details to get the big picture?" asks ecological statistician Andrew Solow of Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Massachusetts.
