Developing an Agent-Based Model for Haplodrassus rufipes (Araneae: Gnaphosidae)...

Olive growing has been facing major sustainability challenges due to intensification, resulting in an increased use of pesticides and fertilizers and, consequently, in the depletion of natural resources and loss of biodiversity and landscape values. This has created an urgent need to develop models for managing complex agroecosystems that integrate factors affecting food quality, sustainability and biodiversity...

Developing a subpopulation-based model for the olive fruit fly Bactrocera oleae...

Bactrocera oleae Rossi (olive fruit fly) is a dipteran of the family Tephritidae, considered the key pest of olives in Mediterranean countries, where it causes losses of great economic impact. Nat ural pest control is an important alternative or complement to the use of plant protection products against B. oleae. This is an ecosystem service that can be enhanced if we are able to predict its behav ior, which ca...

Venom metering in scorpions under controlled threat levels

RASKO, Mykola - Venom metering in scorpions under controlled threat levels. Coimbra : [s.n.], 2016. Dissertação de Mestrado.; Scorpion venom is a complex mixture of toxins. A lot of work is being done on the biochemical properties of the scorpion venom and not that much of work has yet been performed on the biomechanical aspects of scorpion venom delivery. The amount of venom released during different stings is...
