Sprinkler irrigation machines: effect of a growing maize canopy on water partitioning, drop characteristics, and energy dissipation
The self-propelled sprinkler irrigation machine is an extended irrigation system that has reduced its energy dependency in the last twenty years by...

The Role of Cultural Traditions in Ecological Niche Partitioning in Cetaceans
AbstractEcological niche partitioning is a process that allows organisms to achieve differences in resource use to reduce competition. Niche...

Application of a remote-sensing three-source energy balance model to improve evapotranspiration partitioning in vineyards
Improved accuracy of evapotranspiration (ET) estimation, including its partitioning between transpiration (T) and surface evaporation (E), is key to...

Glycogen deficiency enhances carbon partitioning into glutamate for an alternative extracellular metabolic sink in cyanobacteria
Glycogen serves as a metabolic sink in cyanobacteria. Glycogen deficiency causes the extracellular release of distinctive metabolites such as...

Energy partitioning and evapotranspiration in a black locust plantation on the Yellow River Delta, China
Plantations of woody tree species play a crucial role in ecological security along coastal zones. Understanding energy partitioning and...

Carnivore coexistence in Chicago: niche partitioning of coyotes and red foxes
Mesopredators including coyotes ( Canis latrans ) and red foxes ( Vulpes vulpes ) often co-occur in urban environments, but how niche partitioning...

Niche partitioning and individual specialisation in resources and space use of sympatric fur seals at their range margin
Ecological theory predicts niche partitioning between high-level predators living in sympatry as a mechanism to minimise the selective pressure of...

Nitrite accumulation and anammox bacterial niche partitioning in Arctic Mid-Ocean Ridge sediments
By consuming ammonium and nitrite, anammox bacteria form an important functional guild in nitrogen cycling in many environments, including marine...

Biomass partitioning of plants under soil pollution stress
Polluted sites are ubiquitous worldwide but how plant partition their biomass between different organs in this context is unclear. Here, we...

Niche partitioning and seasonality may mediate coexistence of piranha species in Amazonian floodplain lakes
Unraveling factors that enable the coexistence of species occupying similar niches is a challenge in Ecology. In the Amazon basin, several piranha...

Niche partitioning of hydrothermal vent fauna in the North Fiji Basin, Southwest Pacific inferred from stable isotopes
Energy sources and trophic interactions among vent fauna were investigated in deep-sea hydrothermal vents in the North Fiji Basin (NFB), Southwest...

Evidence for trophic niche partitioning among three temperate gorgonian octocorals
Trophic niche theory predicts that species in competition for a limiting resource will evolve adaptations allowing them to consume alternative...
