Impact of interspecific competition on African wild dogs (Lycaon pictus) in an ecosystem with artificial perennial water provision by Sandoval Serés, ME

“…Specifically to decrease the interspecific competition intensity of African wild dogs with larger predators, it is important that there are areas with enough permanent waterholes (at least ~0.01 waterholes per km²) during the late dry season, but to also limit the number of artificial waterholes created in high waterhole density areas (above ~0.03 waterholes per km²) (Chapter 5). …”

Assessing racism in Singapore : replacing Singapore's customary focus on intentionality with a focus on impacts by Lee, Lavelle Wen Ning

“…As such, instances of covert racism (racism that does not initially appear to be racist) often escape detection—or at the very least, face much smaller consequences. Even as Singapore continues to promote racial harmony and regard multiculturalism as a major characteristic of its national identity, the reality is that racism continues to thrive in Singapore, mainly because of its inability to acknowledge more subtle instances of racism. …”

Biofuel : impact on global economy. by Ho, Sarah Shu Ching., Seah, Patricia Kai Ling.

“…The key determinants of biofuel production used in our analysis are Gross National Income (GNI), agricultural land, share of renewable energy (SRE) out of total primary energy supply, CO2 emissions, and poverty rate. By using ordinary least squares (OLS) regression to examine these factors, we have found that all but SRE contribute significantly to production of biofuel.…”

Optimization of SMART-based PCR for amplification from picogram amounts of RNA. by Lin, Zhaoting.

Co-operation and competition : the role of identity and social preferences by Chen, Hongyu, Zhang, Ruike, Zhang, Shaoyu

“…Moreover, while considering the interactive effects between gender and information, we observe that male subjects generally behave more aggressively than female and the impact of identity on them could be enhanced by unveiling both Intra-Group and Inter-Group Information. Last but not least, the experimental results suggest that a heterogeneous team composition leads to higher degree of rent dissipation.…”
