AGE-RELATED CHANGES IN THE PRIMARY AUDITORY CORTEX OF NEWBORN, ADULTS AND AGING BOTTLENOSE DOLPHINS (TURSIOPS TRUNCATUS) ARE LOCATED IN THE UPPER CORTICAL LAYERS

Age-related changes in the primary auditory cortex of newborn, adults and aging bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) are located in the upper cortical layers

IntroductionThe auditory system of dolphins and whales allows them to dive in dark waters, hunt for prey well below the limit of solar light absorption, and to communicate with their conspecific.These complex behaviors require specific and sufficient functional circuitry in the neocortex, and vicarious learning capacities.Dolphins are also precocio

Assessing spatiotemporal dynamics of land surface temperature and satellite-derived indices for new town development and suburbanization planning

Pervasive development across the country has resulted in unprecedented urbanization with a phenomenal change to the urban landscape.This rapid expansion of cities has generated characteristic local urban climates with an increased land surface temperature (LST) and the intensities of urban heat islands (UHI).The study on LST and UHI can be performe
