UTILIZATION OF INTEGRATED GEOPHYSICAL TECHNIQUES TO DELINEATE THE EXTRACTION OF MINING BENCH OF ORNAMENTAL ROCKS (MARBLE)

Utilization of Integrated Geophysical Techniques to Delineate the Extraction of Mining Bench of Ornamental Rocks (Marble)

Low yields in ornamental rock mining remain one of the most important ADRENA SENSE problems in this industry.This fact is usually associated with the presence of anisotropies in the rock, which makes it difficult to extract the blocks.An optimised planning of the exploitation, together with an improved geological understanding of the deposit, could

Mate Choice Contributes to the Maintenance of Shell Color Polymorphism in a Marine Snail via Frequency-Dependent Sexual Selection

Natural color polymorphisms are widespread across animal species and usually have a simple genetic basis.This makes them an ideal system to study the evolutionary mechanisms responsible for maintaining biodiversity.In some populations of the intertidal snail Littorina fabalis, variation in shell color has remained stable for years, but the mechanis
