Geographical variation in egg size dimorphism in rockhopper penguins Universiteit Antwerpen
All crested penguins present a unique reversed hatching asynchrony: the larger second-laid egg (B-egg) hatches before the smaller first-laid egg (A-egg). Although both eggs often hatch, the A-chick generally dies of starvation within days after hatching. However, within rockhopper penguins, the population at the Falkland Islands is unique in that some birds manage to raise both chicks. Although it has been suggested that the egg size dimorphism ...
What influences the geographical distribution of dinoflagellate cysts when relative abundance data are considered: first results from 2385 data points Universiteit Gent
Region-specific nutrient intake patterns exhibit a geographical gradient within and between European countries Universiteit Gent
Until recently, the study of nutrient patterns was hampered at an international level by a lack of standardization of both dietary methods and nutrient databases. We aimed to describe the diversity of nutrient patterns in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) study at population level as a starting point for future nutrient pattern analyses and their associations with chronic diseases in multi-center studies. In ...
Assessment of sliver polygons in geographical vector data Universiteit Gent
As positional error is a major issue in the assessment of spatial data quality, its propagation has been studied widely in map overlaying. However, few studies deal with a manifest consequence of positional error in map overlaying, namely sliver polygons. Sliver polygons are generally treated as awkward by-products that need to be removed quickly. Nevertheless, as they represent spurious areas, their nature and properties carry useful ...
Heterogeneous bipolar criteria satisfaction handling in geographical decision support systems: an LSP based approach Universiteit Gent
Class modeling techniques in the control of the geographical origin of wines Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Wine samples of four different countries: Hungary, Czech Republic, Romania and South-Africa, have been studies within the European project WINES-DB "establishing of a wine data bank for analytical parameters from third countries". For each country two types of wine samples were collected, during three consecutive years: commercial wines and wines obtained by microvinification according to EC regulation N. 2729/2000. The sampling design was ...
