LANDSCAPE HOMOGENIZATION DUE TO AGRICULTURAL INTENSIFICATION DISRUPTS THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN REPRODUCTIVE SUCCESS AND MAIN PREY ABUNDANCE IN AN AVIAN PREDATOR

Abstract Background Selecting high-quality habitat and the optimal time to reproduce can increase individual fitness and is a strong evolutionary factor shaping animal populations.However, few studies have investigated the interplay between land cover heterogeneity, limitation in food resources, individual quality and spatial variation in fitness p

A graphene modified epoxy surface tolerant coating was prepared, and the corrosion performance and rust conversion mechanism of the prepared composite coating on rusty carbon steel substrate was investigated.Scanning electron microscope (SEM), coffret 6 mini princesse disney X-ray powder diffractometer (XRD), and infrared (IR) spectrum were used to
