Ceratopsidae is a group of non-avian dinosaurs known for their distinctive cranial ornamentation and horns. This ornamentation has become the focal point of ceratopsid research and therefore has led to a state of affairs in ceratopsid palaeontology in which taxa are diagnosed on the basis of...

Hannon, S., Stephenson, S., Proctor, H.
Altricial young face two significant energetic challenges in the nest: thermoregulation and stress caused by ectoparasites. Ectoparasites feed on blood of nestlings and serve as vectors for bacterial and viral infections. Many bird species line their nests with feathers, which insulate the nest...

The influence of dietary roughage level on the efficiency of growth and muscle deposition in bulls and steers
Download1981
Hardin, R. T., Jones, S. D. M., Berg, R. T., Price, M. A.
Bulls and implanted steers fed three dietary roughage levels (20% 50%, and 80% alfalfa-brome hay) were compared for various measures of efficiency in beef production. Cattle were about 1 yr of age at the start of the trial and bulls were heavier than steers (290 kg vs. 269 kg). There were four...

The influences of feed energy level on growth and carcass traits in bulls of two breed types
Download1984
Makarechian, M., Butson,S., Price, M. A.
A serial slaughter experiment is described using 48 yearling bulls: 24 Hereford crossbred (HX) and 24 Beef synthetic (SY). Twelve bulls of each breed type were fed a high-energy, mainly grain diet (Hi) and the other 12 a pelleted alfalfa diet (Lo). The two breed types showed similar growth rate...

The growth of debt and deficits in developed countries has led many states to consider the adoption of fiscal rules. There is little evidence on the benefits of different types of rules. This study uses Monte Carlo techniques to examine the impact on welfare and government spending stabilization...

Abstract: Enriching plant tissues with C-13 and N-15 isotopes has provided long-lasting, non-reactive tracers to quantify rates of terrestrial elemental fluxes (e.g., soil organic matter decomposition). However, the molecular location and level of isotope enrichment may differ among plant...
