REDUCED BODY MASS IN A HIGHLY INSECTIVOROUS MAMMAL, THE GARDEN DORMOUSE—ECOLOGICAL CONSEQUENCES OF INSECT DECLINE?

Reduced Body Mass in a Highly Insectivorous Mammal, the Garden Dormouse—Ecological Consequences of Insect Decline?

ABSTRACT Biodiversity is decreasing worldwide, and early indicators are needed to identify endangered populations before they start to decline in abundance.In mammals, body mass (BM) is regarded as an indicator of fitness, and its loss is used as an early warning signal preceding population decline.The garden dormouse (Eliomys quercinus, Gliridae,

Multiplicative Fault Estimation-Based Adaptive Sliding Mode Fault-Tolerant Control Design for Nonlinear Systems

This article deals with the sliding mode fault-tolerant control (FTC) problem for a nonlinear system described under Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy representation.In particular, the nonlinear system is corrupted with multiplicative actuator faults, process faults, and uncertainties.We start by constructing the separated FTC design to ensure robust stabi
