Abstract:
Social learning can help animals gain knowledge rapidly and may enhance survival. In species that are subjected to capture in foothold traps and then lethally removed, such as the coyote (Canis latrans), learning to avoid traps is critical to survival. Here, we tested social learning of trap avoidance behavior in three experimental scenarios with captive coyotes. In the first experiment, coyotes observed an unfamiliar coyote get captured in a foothold trap (i.e., demonstrator) or did not observe a demonstrator and were therefore naïve to traps. The coyotes that observed a demonstrator showed s

Abstract:
I compared the efficacy of terrestrial, arboreal, carnivore, and pitfall trapping methods for censusing small (200 animals per 1000 trap-nights), whereas carnivore (83.7 animals per 1000 trap-nights) and pitfall (9.1 animals per 1000 trap-nights) traps were less effective. However, each method was particularly effective for 1-4 species, with factors such as diet, vertical microhabitat use, body size and trap avoidance strongly influencing trappability of different species. Strategies for censusing small mammals in tropical rainforest are discussed.

We experimentally investigated whether intraspecific and intersexual attraction (or avoidance) by chemical signals may bias newt trapping success. We installed commercially available fish funnel traps which are often used in newt monitoring studies. We tested if capture rates differed between traps with or without newts. One experimental trap set comprised five traps, one trap being empty and four traps containing one male or female Lissotriton vulgaris or Ichthyosaura alpestris, respectively. Capture rates of newts of neither species nor sex was significantly affected by the presence of a par

The traps of many carnivorous plants are red in colour. This has been widely hypothesized to serve a prey attraction function; colour has also been hypothesized to function as camouflage, preventing prey avoidance. We tested these two hypotheses in situ for the carnivorous plant Drosera rotundifolia . We conducted three separate studies: (i) prey attraction to artificial traps to isolate the influence of colour; (ii) prey attraction to artificial traps on artificial backgrounds to control the degree of contrast and (iii) observation of prey capture by D. rotundifolia to determine the effects o

Abstract:
This book analyses the political economy of economic development using two stylized facts models of rent-driven growth. The models show that: (i) the resource curse is a variant of a wider rent curse that can be driven by geopolitical rent (foreign aid), labour rent (worker remittances), or regulatory rent (government manipulation of relative prices); (ii) the rent curse is caused by policy failure and is avoidable; (iii) the global incidence of the rent curse varies over time, which reflects development policy fashions; and (iv) the intensity of the rent curse also varies with rent linkages.

In Session 7 you are introduced to the concept of avoidant coping. We all use avoidance at times in dealing with stressful, unpleasant and uncomfortable situations. However, if we use avoidance as the major way to cope with these challenges, it will have a negative impact on our ability to function physically, emotionally, and in school and social situations. In order to make sure we don’t fall into the trap of over-using avoidance in dealing with the challenges of a chronic medical problem, CHIRP uses activities that teach you strategies that can disrupt this cycle by improving your skills an

Abstract:
Stochastic local search for satisfiability (SAT) has successfully been applied to solve a wide range of problems. However, it still suffers from a major shortcoming, i.e. being trapped in local minima. In this study, we explore different heuristics to avoid local minima. The main idea is to proactively avoid local minima rather than reactively escape from them. This is worthwhile because it is time consuming to successfully escape from a local minimum in a deep and wide valley. In addition, revisiting an encountered local minimum several times makes it worse. Our new trap avoidance heuristics

Image amplification using photorefractive two-wave mixing is attractive since high gain and high signal-to-noise ratios are achievable using relatively low-power lasers. Huignard et. al. have achieved high gains in Bi12SiO20 (BSO) using the DC field and moving grating technique1. The disadvantages of this technique are the uniform illumination and external frequency shift requirements. Another option is the use of alternating electric fields as suggested by Stepanov and Petrov2. This technique has been demonstrated in BTO2 and GaAs3.

Furthermore, reactive decision-making may result in becoming stuck in an undesirable traffic position. This paper presents a fundamental approach to
