Many animals use social cues to find refuges.Bats can find roosts using the echolocation and social calls of conspecifics, but they might also use scent cues, a possibility which is less studied.The entrances of bat roosts are often marked by guano and urine, providing possible scent cues.We conducted eight experiments to test whether bats use the
The Zayandeh-Rood river basin is the only permanent and water-rich river in the central plateau in a densely populated area with a dry and semi-arid climate.Due to precise historical management and supervision, the social problems of water distribution rarely happened.However, since the mid-1980s, the river has 6 Piece Modular Sectional steadily lo
In order to reduce the stress concentration in notched fiber metal laminate (FML) and improve its damage tolerance, the local reinforcement concept 6 Piece Modular Sectional was employed in present paper.Two different reinforced structures were proposed by bonding titanium patch on single side or double sides of the standard glass fiber reinforced
We present the first general theory of glacier surging that includes both temperate and polythermal glacier surges, based on coupled mass and enthalpy budgets.Enthalpy (in the form of thermal energy and water) is gained at the glacier bed from geothermal heating plus frictional heating (expenditure OREGA CINNAMON of potential energy) as a consequen
Background: Thyroid disorders and iron deficiency (ID) are associated with obstetrical and fetal complications.Iron is essential for the normal functioning of thyroid peroxidase (TPO-abs) and ID is frequent during pregnancy.Objective: The present study was undertaken to see the relationship between iron deficiency anaemia and thyroid disorder in an
