SPECIES ASSOCIATED WITH WHALE SHARKS RHINCODON TYPUS (ORECTOLOBIFORMES, RHINCODONTIDAE) IN THE GALAPAGOS ARCHIPELAGO

Species associated with whale sharks Rhincodon typus (Orectolobiformes, Rhincodontidae) in the Galapagos Archipelago

Whale sharks Rhincodon typus frequently appear to interact or associate with other species, which vary depending on the community structure and the demographic of the whale sharks at each location globally.Here, we present the species sighted frequently around whale sharks in the Galapagos Archipelago and reported by dive guides and scientists and

The effect of temperature and strain rate on elongation to failure in nanostructured Al-0.2wt% Zr alloy fabricated by ARB process

A nano/ultra-fine grain Al-0.2wt% Zr alloy was produced by accumulated roll bonding (ARB) processafter 10 cycles.The fraction of high angle grain boundaries increased from 8% to 65.4% during 10passes during ARB process.This alloy was subjected to tensile test at different temperatures (523,573and 623 K) and strain Snoring rates (0.1 and 0.01 s-1).T

National Exposed Sediment Search and Inventory (NESSI): Utilizing Satellite Imagery and Machine Learning to Identify Dredged Sediment Placement Site Recovery

Anthropogenic activity leads to changes in sediment dynamics, creating imbalances Training Chair in sediment distributions across the landscape.These imbalances can be variable within a littoral system, with adjacent areas experiencing sediment starvation and excess sediment.Historically, sediments were viewed as an inconvenient biproduct destined
