Nests, Eggs, and Incubation by D. Charles Deeming,S. James Reynolds Pdf

Nests, Eggs, and Incubation brings together a global team of leading authorities to provide a comprehensive overview of the fascinating and diverse field of avian reproduction. Starting with a new assessment of the evolution of avian reproductive biology in light of recent research, the book goes on to cover four broad areas: the nest, the egg, incubation, and the study of avian reproduction. New research on nest structures, egg traits, and life history is incorporated, whilst contemporary methodologies such as self-contained temperature probes and citizen science are also discussed. Applied chapters describe how biological knowledge can be applied to challenges such as urbanisation and climate change. The book concludes by suggesting priorities for future research. This book builds upon the foundations laid down by Charles Deeming's 2002 work Avian Incubation (available for readers of this book to access online for free), much of which remains relevant today. Read in conjunction with this previous volume, it provides an up-to-date and thorough review of egg biology, nest function, and incubation behaviour, which will be an essential resource for students of avian biology, as well as both professional and amateur ornithologists working in the field of avian reproduction.

Incubation in Problem Solving and Creativity by Kenneth J. Gilhooly Pdf

Can problems be solved by setting them aside or by sleeping on them? Incubation, the process of stopping conscious work on problems for a set period of time, is an integral part of the creative problem solving process. Providing an overview of the main issues, findings and implications of cognitive research on incubation effects in problem solving and creativity, this book argues that incubation is an effective strategy for tackling problems that do not yield to initial solution attempts. Gilhooly reasons that unconscious work is automatic and explores the underlying processes involved in incubation, providing evidence to showcase the major role of unconscious processing in problem solving. Incubation in Problem Solving and Creativity concludes with a discussion of the implications of unconscious work theory for enhanced problem solving, positioning incubation as an effective and important stage in creative problem solving. This book is an invaluable resource for students and researchers of problem solving, creativity and thinking and reasoning as well as for students from all disciplines taking problem solving modules.

Operation of Abernathy Channel for Incubation of Salmon Eggs by Allan E. Thomas,J. M. Shelton Pdf

A spawning and incubation channel constructed in 1959 on Abernathy Creek near Longview, Washington, has been used for seasons to incubate fall chinook salmon and chum salmon eggs. Survival of eggs from both species was higher than reported for other channels and controlled-flow projects. Studies included effects of sedimentation, egg planting density, and stage of egg development at planting on survival. In early experiments sediment in the upper sections substantially reduced survival. In later experiments, after the construction of a sand trap and settling chamber, survivals significantly increased.
