Investigation of Spatiotemporal Variability of Microplastics in Qatar's Cstal Environment
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
There has been a tremendous proliferation in plastic production in the last five decades due to its low cost and versatile applications. Plastic debris dominates the marine litter globally and has been found in the most ...
Traditional plant functional groups explain variation in economic but not size-related traits across the tundra biome
(
Wiley
, 2019 , Article)
Aim: Plant functional groups are widely used in community ecology and earth system modelling to describe trait variation within and across plant communities. However, this approach rests on the assumption that functional ...
Comparing connection to theory in Bachelor's theses: Old research university versus new regional university college
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Article)
Quality of higher education is often assumed to be linked to the size of the faculty. Therefore, this study tested the hypothesis whether Bachelor's theses in ecology at a large, old research university would have more ...
Winter thermoregulation of free-ranging Ethiopian hedgehogs (Paraechinus aethiopicus) in Qatar
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Biologists focus on thermoregulation of desert mammals in terms of how they minimise heat gain during hotter months, and put less effort on how they maximise heat gain during cooler months. Heat gain may contribute to ...
Isolation of the Bacillus thuringiensis plasmid carrying Bacthuricin F4 coding genes and evidence of its conjugative transfer
(
The Journal of Infection in Developing Countries
, 2014 , Article)
INTRODUCTION:
Conjugation is an excellent natural mode of DNA transfer in vivo between bacteria, particularly when these conjugative elements carry technological traits such as bacteriocin encoding genes. In the present ...
Coral bleaching in extreme environments: speciesspecific thermal tolerance limits
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Increasing seawater temperatures are being measured worldwide, causing coral bleaching events during which the symbiosis between the coral host and its symbiotic zooxanthellae is disrupted, and a global decline in reef ...
Preliminary results on carbon and nutrients fluxes at the sediment-water interface in natural and planted mangroves, central Arabian Gulf
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Despite the many ecological services and benefits provided by the mangrove ecosystem, deforestation of mangrove ecosystem for industrial and other development has caused irreversible damage in coastal regions throughout ...
IMA Genome-F 4: Draft genome sequences of Chrysoporthe austroafricana, Diplodia scrobiculata, Fusarium nygamai, Leptographium lundbergii, Limonomyces culmigenus, Stagonosporopsis tanaceti, and Thielaviopsis punctulata
(
International Mycological Association
, 2015 , Article)
The genomes of Chrysoporthe austroafricana, Diplodia scrobiculata, Fusarium nygami, Leptographium lundbergii, Limonomyces culmigenus, Stagonosporopsis tanaceti, and Thielaviopsis punctulata are presented in this genome ...
A spherical-plot solution to linking acceleration metrics with animal performance, state, behaviour and lifestyle
(
BioMed Central
, 2016 , Article)
Background
We are increasingly using recording devices with multiple sensors operating at high frequencies to produce large volumes of data which are problematic to interpret. A particularly challenging example comes from ...
Assessing uncertainty in sighting records: An example of the Barbary lion
(
PeerJ
, 2015 , Article)
As species become rare and approach extinction, purported sightings can be controversial, especially when scarce management resources are at stake.We consider the probability that each individual sighting of a series is ...
