CONCEPÇÕES DOCENTES ACERCA DO ENSINO DE PROGRAMAÇÃO DE COMPUTADORES NO ENSINO SUPERIOR
Authors: Lima Marcio Roberto de
Published: October 2019

Este artigo é um recorte de uma pesquisa de mestrado que abordou a inserção do computador na educação superior e sistematiza algumas das concepções docentes acerca do ensino de programação de computadores. De natureza qualitativa, assumiu como dispositivo gerador de dados a entrevista semiestruturada. Os dados coletados junto a professores de um curso de Sistemas de Informação de uma universidade brasileira foram transcritos e submetidos à análise de conteúdo. Os resultados indicaram a importância da reflexão docente sobre as estratégias de ensino e a indispensável experiência profissional na área para qual se ensina. Identificou-se que a ausência de formação pedagógica é um fator de insegurança para os docentes, os quais vêm de cursos que enfocam a parte técnica da computação. Constatou-se que a atuação didática dos professores precisa transcender a pedagogia transmissiva, envolvendo estratégias que estimulem a autonomia e a autoria discente em ambientes de programação de computadores.

Tragédia senequiana: a formação pelo exemplo
Authors: Melo José Joaquim Pereira
Published: October 2019

Este trabalho tem como preocupação investigar a mensagem formativa de Sêneca, tendo em vista a formação de Nero pelo exemplo proposto em algumas de suas tragédias: Hércules Furioso, As Fenícias, Édipo e Hércules em Etá. Ao que se infere, a grande preocupação senequiana expressa nessas tragédias era influenciar na educação de Nero. Ao influencia-lo positivamente, em seu entendimento, estenderia seu ideal formativo para o homem do seu tempo, visto entender que o imperador deveria ser exemplo a ser seguido pelos seus súditos. Importa destacar que, nessas peças, identificam-se três tipos de personagens políticas: os negativos, os humanizados e os positivos. O primeiro modelo, caracterizado pela linearidade, refere-se a personagens com perfis de perversidade, tais como Etéocles, Polinices e Lico; o segundo modelo destaca-se pelo comportamento pendular de sua personagem, ora para o bem ora para o mal, mais invariavelmente sujeita a se submeter, em momentos determinados pelos fatos, como se evidencia em Édipo; o terceiro modelo é afim ao anterior, e nele se inclui aquele que busca o maior de seus esforços para conquistar a virtude que se resume em dominar a si mesmo, a exemplo de Hércules. Nessas tragédias, pode-se observar um Sêneca moralista, que exorta sobre a importância da vivência das virtudes, principalmente para aqueles que estavam no poder.

Influence of different merging angles of pedestrian flows on evacuation time
Authors: Nappi Manuela Marques Lalane , Moser Ivana Righetto , Souza João Carlos
Published: October 2019

The growing number of fires and other types of catastrophes occurring at large events highlights the need to rethink safety concepts and also to include new ways to optimize buildings and venues where events are held. Although there have been some attempts to model and simulate the movement of pedestrian crowds, little knowledge has been gathered to better understand the impact of the built environment and its geometric characteristics on the crowd dynamics. This paper presents computer simulations about pedestrians’ crowd dynamics that were conducted based on the Social Force Model. The influence of different configurations of pedestrian flows merging during emergency evacuations was investigated. In this study, 12 designs with different merging angles were examined, simulating the evacuation of 400 people in each scenario. The Planung Transport Verkehr (PTV, German for Planning Transport Traffic) Viswalk module of the PTV Vissim software (PTV Group, Karlsruhe, Germany) program was adopted, which allows the employment of the Social Force approach. The results demonstrate that both symmetric and asymmetric scenarios are sensitive to the angles of convergence between pedestrian flows.
Nutritional status and dietary diversity of pregnant women in rural KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa
Authors: Napier Carin , Warriner Kelly , Sibiya Maureen N. , Reddy Poovendhree
Published: October 2019

Background: Pregnancy is a critical period during which maternal nutrient intake and nutritional status impact both the mother and the infant. Various factors including good nutrition play a role in a healthy pregnancy outcome. A healthy diet has an important role in the birthweight and well-being of both the mother and the child.Aim: The aim of this descriptive study was to determine the nutritional status and food intake of a group of pregnant women (N = 100) in early pregnancy (up to 24 weeks gestation).Setting: The study took place in a Public Health Care Facility located at Umkhumbane (Mayville) and forms part of the EThekwini district operated by the Provincial and eThekwini Municipality situated in Kwa Zulu Natal, South Africa.Methods: This study utilised a quantitative, descriptive research design and included 100 pregnant women attending a public healthcare clinic in KwaZulu-Natal province, South Africa. Consenting women were measured for height and weight to determine body mass index (BMI) as an indicator of nutritional status. Food intake was evaluated through two 24-h dietary recall questionnaires and a food frequency questionnaire. Actual food intake was analysed for nutrient content and compared to the Dietary Reference Intake for women aged 19–30 years. A food variety score and food group diversity score were determined to establish the adequacy of the diet to support the first phase of pregnancy.Results: Except for carbohydrates and vitamin A, all the nutrients consumed by the women were lower than the recommended daily amounts. Fruit and vegetable intake was half of the recommended daily amount and a medium food variety score was observed. A large percentage (55%) of the women had a BMI that fell in the obese category.Conclusion: Although various factors can impact birth outcome, food choices made by women did not reflect the food choices to maintain a healthy pregnancy and contribute to a healthy birth outcome. Nutrition education aimed at girls of childbearing age and pregnant women is important to increase their awareness about a healthy pregnancy and healthy birth outcome.

La enseñanza y evaluación de las competencias transversales en el ámbito universitario es compleja y se debe concretar en resultados de aprendizaje en materias determinadas en niveles específicos. Estas competencias son habilidades relacionadas con el desarrollo personal que no dependen de un ámbito temático especifico pero que si aparecen en todos los dominios de la actuación profesional y académica. Por ello, los empleadores no dudan en subrayar la gran importancia que tiene en el desempeño profesional de los titulados universitarios. Así pues, la Universitat Politècnica de València (UPV) ha puesto en marcha un ambicioso proyecto institucional certificación al estudiante de su formación en competencias. En este trabajo nos encargamos de describir el marco que se ha dado a la competencia transversal 11 “Aprendizaje permanente” en la Facultad de Administración y Dirección de Empresas (FADE) de la UPV, así como las metodologías utilizadas para su evaluación en las asignaturas utilizadas como punto de control en dos niveles diferentes.

Twin-city Study correlating the Dermatoglyphic Patterns with Rampant Caries and Early Childhood Caries
Authors: Chunawala Yusuf , Morawala Abdul , Ambiye Arti , Jain Kapil
Published: October 2019

Introduction

Dermatoglyphics is the scientific and analytical study of fingerprints. Every individual's fingerprints are distinctive; one can determine one's ingrained potential, individuality, and choices by interpreting dermatoglyphics. This twin-city survey was undertaken to evaluate the fingerprint patterns of children with dental caries [study groups – rampant caries vs early childhood caries (ECC)] and caries-free individual (control group).

Aim

This study was carried out to determine the correlation between dermatoglyphic pattern and caries prevalence in young children in the twin cities of Pune and Mumbai.

Materials and methods

Two centers were selected in Pune and Mumbai. A total of 300 patients (150 patients in each center) were randomly selected from the age group ranging between 3 and 5 years. The samples were divided into two groups: Group I: Caries group, and group II: Caries-free group. Group I was further divided into children with ECC and children with rampant caries. Clinical examination of dental caries was done using mouth mirror and probe (only to remove debris and not probe into the fissures) in daylight or suitable light source. Fingerprints were obtained by the conventional ink method. Statistical results were obtained by one-way analysis of variance with post hoc Tukey's correction for multiple group comparisons using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences version 20.

Results

The evaluation and comparison of patterns in children with caries and caries-free children in both right and left hands showed increase in the number of whorls in children with rampant caries as compared with children with ECC. However, this was not statistically significant.

Conclusion

The study showed a definite variation in dermatoglyphics between the ECC, rampant caries, and caries-free group. However, the rampant caries group showed more number of whorls as compared with the ECC group, but they were statistically insignificant. Dermatoglyphics has proven to be a useful, noninvasive, and cost-efficient tool for investigating diseases with a genetic background like dental caries and cleft lip and palate, etc.

Published: October 2019

Lingual atrophic condition is the loss of ordinary texture and appearance of the dorsal tongue, determined by papillary protrusion, which turns into a soft and smooth aspect. Atrophic glossitis (AG) is a lingual atrophic condition, characterized by loss of fungiform or filiform papilla from the dorsum of tongue. This is generally associated with pain, glossodynia, and burning sensation, glossopyrosis. It is associated with a variety of conditions, local and systemic. Atrophic glossitis is considered to be an important indicator for nutritional deficiency anemias. The study aims at a brief review of AG and its relation to nutritional deficiency anemia.

Published: October 2019

Introduction

Obstruction of the ureter may occur due to congenital, iatrogenic or other reasons. This can cause hydronephrosis in the early stage and can lead to cellular inflammation, necrosis and atrophy in the kidney tissue. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the protective effect of pheniramine maleate (PM) and zofenopril on renal damage caused by hydronephrosis due to unilateral partial ureter obstruction.

Material and methods

Twenty-four female Sprague Dawley rats were divided into 4 groups. Group 1: sham group, group 2: partial unilateral ureteral obstruction (PUUO) group, group 3: PUUO + PM group, group 4: PUUO + zofenopril group. Paraoxonase (PON), total antioxidant status (TAS) and total oxidant status (TOS) of tissue and blood samples were measured and calculated. Tissue samples were evaluated histopathologically.

Results

An increase in tissue TAS and a decrease in tissue TOS and OSI levels were detected in groups 3 and 4 compared to group 2 (both: p < 0.01). Tissue PON levels showed an increase in groups 3 and 4 compared to groups 1 and 2 (both: p < 0.01). Histopathological evaluation showed a decrease in interstitial inflammation and congestion in groups 3 and 4 compared to the control group (p < 0.001). The decrease was observed to be more significant in group 4 compared to group 3 (p < 0.01).

Conclusion

In our experimental study, we observed that PM and zofenopril reduce the oxidation and tissue damage caused by unilateral partial obstruc­tion.

Authors: Zabicki Bartosz , Limphaibool Nattakarn , Holstad Marte Johanne Veilemand , Perkowska Katarzyna
Published: October 2019

Purpose

Central venous access ports (CVAP) are widely used to provide long-term vascular access for the delivery of chemotherapeutic medications. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical outcomes and complications following CVAP implantation in the interventional radiology suite.

Material and methods

A retrospective analysis was conducted on 937 oncology patients who underwent CVAP implantation between January 2009 and June 2017. Information regarding patient characteristics, operative data, and procedural outcomes was collected and analysed.

Results

A total of 937 patients scheduled for CVAP were included in the final analysis. Initial success was achieved in 930 patients (99.3%), and overall completion was achieved in 933 patients (99.6%). There were 63 complications overall. Among these, 19 (2.0%) occurred during the intra- and perioperative period and 44 were late complications (4.7%). No CVAP-related mortalities were observed.

Conclusions

The analysis in the present study revealed that the CVAP is a safe and effective route for long-term administration of chemotherapy with an overall complication rate of 6.7% throughout the entire device duration. The CVAP implantation procedure carried out in the interventional radiology suite provides an advantage in the management of procedural, vascular and catheter-related complications.

Metodologia Para Ensino do Pensamento Computacional para Crianças Baseada na Alternância de Atividades Plugadas e Desplugadas
Authors: Berto Letícia Mara , Zaina Luciana Aparecida Martinez , Sakata Tiemi Christine
Published: October 2019

Ensinar o pensamento computacional às crianças tem sido cada vez mais reconhecido nos últimos anos como uma atividade importante, principalmente nos países da Europa e nos Estados Unidos. No Brasil, a Sociedade Brasileira de Computação (SBC) recomenda que as habilidades de raciocínio computacional sejam trabalhadas desde estágios iniciais da educação. O contato com conceitos de pensamento computacional fornece experiências que podem encorajar as crianças a desenvolver habilidades diferentes, como o raciocínio lógico, a solução de problemas, reconhecimento de padrões, decomposição e generalização, e assim por diante. Este artigo apresenta uma metodologia, chamada MEPeCoC (Metodologia para Ensino de Pensamento Computacional para Crianças), que visa apoiar o ensino do pensamento computacional para as crianças. Ao executar atividades desplugadas e plugadas alternadamente e complementá-las com o desenvolvimento de um projeto, a MEPeCoC visa introduzir os fundamentos de forma sinérgica e incremental. A proposta foi avaliada em um estudo de caso com participação de alunos do ensino fundamental pertencentes a uma escola pública de Sorocaba - SP. Os resultados demonstraram que os elementos que compõem a metodologia trazem um grande potencial para auxiliar o ensino do pensamento computacional.

Discute-se neste artigo o framework “Eu fiz meu game” o qual foi construído para o desenvolvimento da criatividade por meio de criação de jogos digitais por e com crianças no contexto de inclusão escolar. O framework emprega abordagens do design participativo propiciando o protagonismo da criança em todas as atividades, por meio de técnicas diferenciadas como cartões de ideias, w-questions cards, brainstorm, desenho, design experimental, implementação, dentre outras. A metodologia de pesquisa foi o Design-based Research, abordagem que considera profunda colaboração entre pesquisadores e participantes no sentido de alcançar os objetivos teóricos e práticos da investigação. Participaram da pesquisa quatro crianças de nove anos de idade – dentre as quais duas com deficiência intelectual -, em parceria com pesquisadoras e acadêmicos das áreas da Educação, Ciência da Computação e Design de Jogos. A pesquisa partiu da compreensão de que a participação das crianças, notadamente as com deficiência intelectual, na construção dos jogos, e não somente no jogar, possibilita o desenvolvimento da imaginação e criatividade na infância e consequentemente das funções psicológicas superiores, necessárias ao pensamento complexo, aliando os conceitos do design participativo às concepções de aprendizagem e desenvolvimento do campo da psicologia histórico-cultural desenvolvida por Vigotski. O estudo evidenciou que a produção de um jogo digital sustentado em um framework colaborativo favoreceu a aprendizagem das crianças, especialmente aquelas com deficiência intelectual, as quais viveram a experiência de interação e de criação em atividades de jogos, ampliando seu universo de imaginação e materialização de sua criatividade.
Does Gamification Improve Flow Experience in Classroom? An Analysis of Gamer Types in Collaborative and Competitive Settings
Authors: Marinho Alexandre , Bittencourt Ig Ibert , Dos Santos Wilk Oliveira , Dermeval Diego
Published: October 2019

The use of gamification to engage and to motivate people in several environments, including education is notorious in the last years. However, there are different doubts related to the real effects of the application of gamification in educational contexts, mainly associated with the psychological analysis of the effects of gamification, that in some cases highlights that depending of gamification settings, and the students' gamer types and of the gender, it can cause bad effects like students' disengagement or demotivation. At the same time, the flow theory is a psychological theory that defines a mental state of complete control over a person's actions during a task and can be a decisive factor for better increase the engagement and learning of the students. Aiming to investigate whether the students' flow experience changes depending on the gamification configuration and the student’s gamer types and gender, we conducted an experiment in a gamified classroom. We analyzed the flow experience of 18 students during four scenarios with different settings of competition and collaboration, comparing their results according to the gamer type and gender. In general, our results did not indicate significant differences in the students' flow experience in the proposed configurations. As a complement, we performed a qualitative study based on the behavioral observations of the experiment that indicated the competition as a stimulating factor of the gamified experience.

Vanishing theorems for higher-order Killing and Codazzi
Authors: Stepanov S. , Tsyganok I.
Published: October 2019

A Killing p-tensor (for an arbitrary natural number p ≥ 2) is a symmetric p-tensor with vanishing symmetrized covariant derivative. On the other hand, Codazzi p-tensor is a symmetric p-tensor with symmetric covariant derivative. Let M be a complete and simply connected Riemannian manifold of nonpositive (resp. non-negative) sectional curvature. In the first case we prove that an arbitrary symmetric traceless Killing p-tensor is parallel on M if its norm is a Lq -function for some q > 0. If in addition the volume of this manifold is infinite, then this tensor is equal to zero. In the second case we prove that an arbitrary traceless Codazzi p-tensor is equal to zero on a noncompact manifold M if its norm is a Lq -function for some q  1 .

About an analogue of Neifeld’s connection
on the space of centred planes with one-index basic-fibre forms
Authors: Belova Е. , Belova O.
Published: October 2019

This research is realized by Cartan — Laptev method (with prolongations and scopes, moving frame and exterior forms). In this paper we consider a space П of centered m-planes (a space of all centered planes of the dimension m). This space is considered in the projective space n P . For the space П we have: dim П=n + (n – m)m. Principal fiber bundle is arised above it. The Lie group is a typical fiber of the principal fiber. This group acts in the tangent space to the П. Analogue of Neifeld’s connection with multivariate glueing is given in this fibering by Laptev — Lumiste way. The case when one-index forms are basic-fibre forms is considered. We realize an analogue of the Norden strong normalization of the space П by fields of the geometrical images: (n – m – 1)-plane which is not having the common points with a centered m-plane and (m – 1)-plane which is belonging to the m-plane and not passing through its centre. It is proved that the analog of the Norden strong normalization of the space of centered planes induces this connection.
Induced connections of two types on a surface of an affine
space
Authors: Shults A.
Published: October 2019

In the affine space the fundamental-group connection in the bundle associated with a surface as a manifold of tangent planes is investigated. The principal bundle contains a quotient bundle of tangent frames, the typical fiber of which is a linear group acting in a centered tangent plane and a quotient bundle of normal frames, the typical fiber of which is a linear group acting inefficiently in a normal quotient space. The curvature object of the fundamental-group connection is a tensor that contains two primary subtensors tangent and normal linear connections. The tensor of non-absolute parallel transference is constructed. Two envelopment of the connection object is obtained. Analytic and geometric conditions of coincidence of two types of envelopment are found. The covariant derivatives of equipping quasitensor form a tensor. The alternations of the covariant derivatives of the objects of the affine and linear connections of the first type are equal to the corresponding components of the curvature tensor and for the second type they vanish.
Hvordan valideres tværsproglige kategorier? Aspekt som eksempel

The precise status of cross-linguistic categories remains a contested issue in contemporary linguistics. This paper proposes a solution based on a functional rethinking of classic concepts in Danish structural linguistics. It is argued that the level of content substance constitutes the necessary starting point for typological categories (such as tense and aspect), distinct from but presupposed by structural categories. This theory is compared to Haspelmath’s influential notion of “comparative concepts”. Comparative concepts arise as subjective stipulations (as claimed by Haspelmath), but we argue that they can be evaluated and potentially validated as cross-linguistically real substance descriptions. A validation procedure based on semantic mapping is proposed and illustrated in an analysis of Comrie’s (1976) category of aspect, which is argued – in contrast to what is generally assumed – not to constitute a cross-linguistically valid semantic domain. We conclude, however, that the category of aspect does constitute a different type of generalization: a generalization over cross-linguistically frequent distinctions.
Lokative pronominer og præpositionalfrasens struktur
Authors: Nguyen Michael

In this paper, I investigate the syntax of the prepositional phrase in Danish and the locative pronouns her ‘here’, der ‘there’ and hvor ‘where’ in e.g. hertil ‘hereto’. I argue that (a) the directional adverb p is a functional head that projects a pP on top of a PP and takes this PP as its complement; that (b) the locative pronoun moves via an intermediate position within the prepositional phrase before it leaves the prepositional phrase; and that (c) the preposition moves to p (P-to-p-incorporation).
Seasonality in ecology: Progress and prospects in theory
Authors: White Easton R , Hastings Alan
Published: October 2019

Seasonality is an important feature of essentially all natural systems but the consequences of seasonality have been vastly underappreciated. Early work emphasized the role of seasonality in driving cyclic population dynamics, but the consequences of seasonality for ecological processes are far broader. Yet, seasonality is often not explicitly included in either empirical or theoretical studies. Many aspects of ecological dynamics can only be understood when seasonality is included, ranging from the oscillations in the incidence of childhood diseases to the coexistence of species. Through several case studies, we outline what is now known about seasonality in an ecological context and set the stage for future efforts. We discuss approaches for incorporating seasonality in mathematical models, including Floquet theory. We argue, however, that these tools are still limited in scope and more approaches need to be developed.

Dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1) divides mitochondria as a mechano-chemical GTPase. However, the function of Drp1 beyond mitochondrial division is largely unknown. Multiple Drp1 isoforms are produced through mRNA splicing. One such isoform, Drp1ABCD, contains all four alternative exons and is specifically expressed in the brain. Here, we studied the function of Drp1ABCD in mouse neurons in both culture and animal systems using isoform-specific knockdown by shRNA and isoform-specific knockout by CRISPR/Cas9. We found that the expression of Drp1ABCD is induced during postnatal brain development. Drp1ABCD is enriched in dendritic spines and regulates postsynaptic clathrin-mediated endocytosis by positioning the endocytic zone at the postsynaptic density, independently of mitochondrial division. Drp1ABCD loss promotes the formation of ectopic dendrites in neurons and enhanced sensorimotor gating behavior in mice. These data reveal that Drp1ABCD controls postsynaptic endocytosis, neuronal morphology and brain function.

IL-10-producing Tr1 cells promote tolerance but their contributions to tolerogenic memory are unclear. Using 10BiT mice that carry a Foxp3-eGFP reporter and stably express CD90.1 following IL-10 production, we characterized the spatiotemporal dynamics of Tr1 cells in a house dust mite model of allergic airway inflammation. CD90.1+Foxp3-IL-10+ Tr1 cells arise from memory cells and rejoin the tissue-resident memory T-cell pool after cessation of IL-10 production. Persistent antigenic stimulation is necessary to sustain IL-10 production and Irf1 and Batf expression distinguishes CD90.1+Foxp3-IL-10+ Tr1 cells from CD90.1+Foxp3-IL-10- ‘former’ Tr1. Depletion of Tr1-like cells after primary sensitization exacerbates allergic airway inflammation. However, neither transfer nor depletion of former Tr1 cells influences either Tr1 numbers or the inflammatory response during subsequent allergen memory re-challenge weeks later. Together these data suggest that naturally-arising Tr1 cells do not necessarily give rise to more Tr1 upon allergen re-challenge or contribute to tolerogenic memory. This phenotypic instability may limit efforts to re-establish tolerance by expanding Tr1 in vivo.
Diet of the wild boar (Sus scrofa): implications for management in forest-agricultural and urban environments in South Korea
Authors: Lee Seong-Min , Lee Eun-Jae
Published: October 2019

The wild boar is one of the most widely distributed in the world. In South Korea, the wild boar population has rapidly increased and their habitat use has expanded from forests to urban environments. This expansion has led to increased conflicts with humans, such as the severe damaging of crops and the attacking of people in urban areas. We assessed the stomach contents of wild boar killed by hunters in two different environments in Geochang and Seoul, South Korea, from 2012 to 2017. We compared the feeding habits between sites and between seasons and explored the relationship between the number of earthworms and the main diet. The diet of wild boars inhabiting the two environments were found to differ and vary seasonally. Wild boar in Geochang preferred crops, when available, to natural food resources. Although wild boar in Seoul also preferred crops, they had a higher composition of natural food in their diets because of a low availability of crops. The preference of crops and discarded food waste in urban areas is expected to have accelerated the appearance of wild boar in urban areas. The consumption of earthworms did not differ between the two study sites, but it did differ seasonally due to availability. The number of earthworms was significantly negatively correlated with crop availability in both sites. Effective management plans that involve targeted hunting by baiting with food in Seoul and direct hunting in the fall in Geochang should be implemented to resolve the human–wild boar conflicts in these areas.
Effects of research disturbance on nest survival in a mixed colony of waterbirds

Published: October 2019

Background

Long-term research is crucial for the conservation and development of knowledge in ecology; however, it is essential to quantify and minimize any negative effects associated with research to gather reliable and representative long-term monitoring data. In colonial bird species, chicks are often marked with coded bands in order to assess demographic parameters of the population. Banding chicks in multi-species colonies is challenging because it involves disturbances to species that are at different stages of progress in their reproduction.

Methods

We took advantage of a long term banding program launched on Glossy Ibis (Plegadis falcinellus) breeding in a major mixed colony of herons in Camargue, southern France, to assess the effect of banding operation disturbance on the reproductive success of the three most numerous waterbirds species in the colony. Over two breeding seasons (2015 and 2016), 336 nests of Glossy Ibis, Little Egrets (Egretta garzetta) and Cattle Egrets (Bubulcus ibis) were monitored from a floating blind in two zones of the colony: one zone disturbed twice a year by the banding activities and another not disturbed (control zone). We applied a logistic-exposure analysis method to estimate the daily survival rate (DSR) of nests and chicks aged up to three weeks.

Results

Daily survival rate of Glossy Ibis was reduced in the disturbed zone while DSR increased for Little and Cattle Egrets in the disturbed zone. Nevertheless, DSR was not reduced on the week following the banding, thus discarding a direct effect of handling on breeding success of Glossy Ibis. The protocol and statistical analysis presented here are robust and can be applied to any bird species to test for the effect of a research disturbance or other short and repeated temporal events that may affect reproductive success over one or more breeding seasons.
