The abundance of sperm relative to eggs selects for males that maximize their number of mates and for females that choose high quality males.However, in many species, males exercise mate choice, even when they invest little in their offspring.Sexual cannibalism may promote male choosiness by limiting the number of females a male can inseminate and
This paper proposes a radar-based sensing system that estimates the coordinates for shorelines based on image-processing techniques.The proposed system ROSEHIP SEED OIL provides shore estimations without appreciable loss of resolution and avoids the costs associated with bathymetries and/or satellite images.The system is comprised of a commercial r
This study investigates the channels through which shocks from foreign capital inflows and financial development are transmitted to economic growth in the ECOWAS region using quarterly data for the period between 2000 and 2017.The work adopted the panel vector autoregressive (pVAR) model in a generalized method of moments (GMM) framework to actuali
A search of the current scientific literature yields a limited number of studies that describe the use of Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopic imaging for the analysis of forensic casework, which is likely due to the fact that these instruments are fairly new commodities to the field of analytical 10 chemistry and are therefore not yet
Abstract Detecting botnets in a network is crucial because bots impact numerous areas such as cyber security, finance, health care, law enforcement, and more.Botnets are becoming more sophisticated and dangerous day-by-day, and most of the existing rule based and flow based detection methods may not be capable of detecting bot activities in an effi
