title: Correlation factor for diffusion in cubic crystals with solute–vacancy interactions of arbitrary range

description: Using a double Laplace and Fourier transform of the transport equation for the vacancy, we obtain the exact values of the return probabilities of the vacancy in the close vicinity of the tracer atom in the presence of a solute-vacancy interaction of arbitrary range. The study of model cases shows that taking into account the interaction up to the third neighbour shell is mandatory to obtain the solute diffusivity in BCC and FCC structures with a good precision. A thorough <i>ab initio</i> evaluation of all the migration barriers is rarely available in the literature; it is shown that the approximations often used to overcome this lack of data must be chosen with care in order to avoid puzzling conclusions. An examination of dilute systems studied in the recent literature is presented.

title: First timetree of Sphyraenidae (Percomorpha) reveals a Middle Eocene crown age and an Oligo–Miocene radiation of barracudas

description: The 27 extant species of the family Sphyraenidae represent one of the major groups of piscivorous teleost fishes in tropical and subtropical marine waters. In spite of their ecological importance, currently, no phylogenetic hypothesis is available for this group, and we do not know the tempo of evolution of this clade. In this study, we used a supermatrix approach to assemble a dataset of three mitochondrial loci for 20 sphyraenid species, and time-calibrated this new phylogeny. Our study supports the existence of three main groups of barracudas, which we labelled the “<i>S. barracuda</i>” group, the “<i>S. obtusata</i>” group and the “<i>S. sphyraena</i>” group. The timetree indicates a Late Paleocene age (~57 Ma) for the origin of the groups, and a Middle Eocene (~45 Ma) timing for the beginning of the radiation of extant lineages. Most extant species appear to belong to phylogenetic lineages dating to the Miocene (~5 to 23 Ma). Our study reveals multiple shifts between coral reef-associated and non-reef (usually more pelagic) habitats, as well as two independent origins of large body size within this group.

title: Insects Population in Wood lot and in Grass land

description: Introduction: There are several ways to measure and identified species in a particular geographical areas. In order to identify the species present in a geographical area, proper experiment has to be organized and more data have to be taken. By collecting as much of data, errors can be minimized. In this particular experiment each groups were performed four different methods to collect data of species present in a particular wood lot and grassland. The data presented in this particular report was collected from woodlot quadrat and grassland quadrat. In this experiment reported, various insects’ species were observed and listed as they occupy each quadrat. Method: A particular woodlot and grassland were selected by the TA. Both grassland and woodlot were located right beside to each other. First of all, quadrat was placed on the grass land randomly and observed for a minute exactly. Number of species and types of species of insects were observed and listed during that time period. Species flying over the quadrat and also moving/staying on the grass land were observed accordingly and listed on the tables provided. Same procedure was repeated for woodlot species. Error: There could be several errors occurred during this experiment. All the measurements were taken by observing quadrats. There could be more insects weren’t observed by mistake and could be left out from listing. Conclusion: By collecting the data from lots of individuals would minimize the errors which possibly occurred at this types of experiments.

title: Insect Laboratory

description: At the beginning of the lab, ten cups were placed in a highly disturbed grassland and ten were placed in a woodlot. We left the cups in their spots for three hours. Once the three hours were complete, we returned to the cups and recorded the number of insects caught in the cups as well as the number of type of insects. The insects were then humanely released back into the wild.

title: Bird Distance Transect

description: 5 different transects were laid out in the grasslands and 5 different transects for the woodlot in York univeristy. Each transect was 25m long. The windspeed was estimated for each transect using the Beaufort wind scale. Birds were searched for in each transect using binoculars. Species that were found and the number of birds for each species in the transects were recorded. The distance of the birds from each transect was estimated in m. A total of 10 transects were made. If the birds could not be identified they were marked as unknown. If no birds were found in a transect it was marked as none.

title: ecology lab 3 bird transect dataset

description: This data set was collected at the York university Keele campus in the woodlot. 5, 25 meter transects were laid out and walked along for approximately 5 minutes each while spotting birds with bare eyes and looking at them more closely with binoculars. When a bird or group of birds was spotted they were counted the distance to them was estimated then there was an attempted to identify the birds while they were insight if nothing could be identified other than they were birds they were referred t as ub (unidentified birds) or if only some colors could be identified they were recorded by colours and if species was identified they were recorded as such. Also the wind speed was checked according to the Beaufort wind scale.

title: Field Sample training

description: Methode: Material required was obtained and every member of the group was given a specific responsibility in the experiment. First group member was asked to keep the experiment time to exactly one minute. Second group member was asked to sweep with the net every 1 meter of the transects. Other two group members were asked to set up a transect. A Distance based transect of length 25m was created in order to collect species with the sweep net in an organized manner. A figure-of-eight sweep was practiced during this experiment. After sweeping for exactly 1 minute the open end of the sweep net was shut close in order to count the number of organisms caught inside it. Observations were recorded in a table. Finally the waste material in the sweep net was removed and same procedure was repeated again for a total of 10 trials. Consecutive transects were set up at different angles to one another. In other words every transect was set up in a unique place in order to prevent catching the same organism twice.

title: Distance-based sampling of birds

description: The dataset was collected at 3pm on York University campus in the Danby woodlot and in the grassland to the south of the woodlot. A 25 foot transect tape was placed on the ground and the researcher walked the length of it while visually scanning the area for birds and listening for bird song. When a bird was located, the point of the 25 foot transect the researcher had reached was recorded, as well as bird species, and number of birds of the same species seen within 75 feet of each other. Distance (in feet) between the bird and the transect was estimated and recorded. Wind was rated using the Beaufort wind scale. The transect tape was then placed again in a different location in a parallel direction to the previous, and the procedure was repeated. This was done for a total of ten transects, five in the woodlot and five in the grassland.

title: Quadrat Dataset Investigating Insects Within Grassland and Woodlot Environments

description: Our group went out on the afternoon of October 1st to the Danby woodlot and adjacent grassland found on York University’s Keele Campus in Toronto and randomly placed 1m x 1m quadrats, 10 within the woodlot and 10 in the grassland. Our observations include the number of insects found within each quadrat during a period of 30 seconds. To be included in the count, the insect had to be on the ground of the observed quadrat. Recognizable taxonomic units were used to identify the insects within the quadrat and were summed up to account for the diversity within the quadrat. The total number of insects was also calculated to display the abundance of insects within the quadrat.
