Abstract:
The ancient tombs in Imdang of Gyeongsan, a representative historic site of Silla culture, are a group of ancient tombs built by local powers of Silla during the Three Kingdoms Period which existed fragmentarily in written records as the tomb of the ruling class in Apdokguk(押督國). In the ancient tomb Imdang 1A, where the appearance at the time of the burial was confirmed, the gilt-copper crown ornament with a bird wing-shaped decoration was excavated showing the relationship between the central Silla and the ruling powers in the local provinces.

Abstract:
The fitness consequences of female ornamentation remain little studied and the results are often contradictory. Female ornamentation may be an artefact of a genetic correlation with male ornamentation, but this possibility can be disregarded if the ornament only occurs in females. Female-specific white wing bars in eiders ( Somateria mollissima ) have been suggested to indicate individual quality, and we studied size variation in this trait in relation to key fitness components and quality attributes. We found that clutch size, body condition, female age, hatching date and success were unrelat

Abstract:
Males of Calopteryx splendens use two alternative mating tactics, territoriality, and non-territoriality. These different mating tactics are shown to vary between males within the same population and previous studies have shown that territorial males have considerably higher fitness than non-territorial males. In this paper, we tested whether the wing spot size as sexual ornament, wing length, relative wing spot size, asymmetry in wing length, asymmetry in wing spot size, or asymmetry in relative wing spot size differed between the territorial and non-territorial males.

Abstract:
The processes governing the evolution of sexual dimorphism provided a foundation for sexual selection theory. Two alternative processes, originally proposed by Darwin and Wallace, differ primarily in the timing of events creating the dimorphism. In the process advocated by Darwin, a novel ornament arises in a single sex, with no temporal separation in the origin and sex-limitation of the novel trait. By contrast, Wallace proposed a process where novel ornaments appear simultaneously in both sexes, but are then converted into sex-limited expression by natural selection acting against showy colo

Abstract:
Abstract Fluctuating asymmetry (FA) may provide a direct test of whether sexual selection via “arbitrary traits” or “good genes” is responsible for the evolution of epigamic traits, because FA is an epigenetic measure of stress during development. However, tests of the FA hypothesis have yielded equivocal results, and the debate between arbitrary traits and good genes continues. The FA hypothesis predicts a negative relationship between ornament size and asymmetry. In non-ornamental traits, a U-shaped relationship between trait size and asymmetry is expected. We tested these predictions in the

Abstract:
Many butterflies exhibit structurally coloured wing patches that are stunningly bright and iridescent in their appearance, yet functionally obscure. These colours are often exaggerated in males, which suggests a sexually selected origin. We studied the visual properties, morphological basis, and interindividual variation of structural wing colouration in the common eggfly, Hypolimnas bolina L. (Nymphalidae). Males of this territorial species possess highly directional UV/violet colouration that fully overlaps smaller white patches on their dorsal wing surfaces. We sampled 56 males, including t

Urban agriculture is defined, as the agricultural and livestock activities that are carried out within or around cities. FAO's definition includes those services offered by agrarian activity that benefit the society. In the global north countries, urban agriculture has been divided into urban agriculture and peri-urban agriculture. Urban agriculture is carried out within the cities and has no commercial purpose. Urban agriculture looks for other aims such as personal relationships, social inclusion and education. Peri-urban agriculture is carried out in the spaces that surround the cities. I

The significant damage caused by these fires requires effective reinforcement of the resistance of structures and parcels against exposure to fire.

Over the last decades, urban expansion and global warming have increased the occurrence of wildland fires propagating at the vicinity of buildings at WUI. In this scenario, ornamental vegetation has been identified as a vector of fire propagation close to habitations, which can significantly increase the risk of damage [1]. In such context, it is necessary to quantify the thermal stress generated by an ornamental plant over a building to predict the vulnerability of construction materials. To this end, numerical simulation is a good candidate to easily multiply burning cases at field scale and
