Natural selection, through eavesdropping predators, plays a crucial role in shaping katydid behavior.Predators use the conspicuous katydid calls for prey localization.While commonly deployed defenses are known for many katydids, the possible effects of habitat and sex are not explored.We studied predator evasion among six sympatric katydid species
Abstract During the unconventional hydrocarbon development, the irregular shaping and uneven sand concentration of proppants banks in the staged multi-cluster fracturing of horizontal wells are key factors determining the fracture conductivity and post-fractured well productivity.To compensate for the limitation of small-scale sand filled core cond
Three low-cost adsorbents (purified raw attapulgite (A-ATP), high-temperature-calcined attapulgite (T-ATP), and hydrothermal loading of MgO Feeding (MgO-ATP)) were prepared as adsorbents for the removal of Cd(II) and Pb(II).By evaluating the effect of the initial solution pH, contact time, initial solution concentration, temperature and coexistence
Water level (WL) Nail Growth Formula Treatments fluctuations in lakes influence many aspects of ecosystem processes.Concern about the potential impact of WL fluctuations on fisheries was one of the factors that motivated the decision in 2000 to alter the management of WL in the Rainy-Namakan reservoir complex (on the border between the U.S.state of
