Ecotoxicology. Ecotoxicology is the study of the effects of toxic chemicals on biological organisms, especially at the population, community, ecosystem, and biosphere levels. Ecotoxicology is a multidisciplinary field, which integrates toxicology and ecology . The ultimate goal of ecotoxicology is to reveal and predict the effects of pollution ...
Reservoir computing is a framework for computation derived from recurrent neural network theory that maps input signals into higher dimensional computational spaces through the dynamics of a fixed, non-linear system called a reservoir. [ 1 ] After the input signal is fed into the reservoir, which is treated as a "black box," a simple readout ...
Echocardiography, also known as cardiac ultrasound, is the use of ultrasound to examine the heart. It is a type of medical imaging, using standard ultrasound or Doppler ultrasound. [ 1] The visual image formed using this technique is called an echocardiogram, a cardiac echo, or simply an echo . Echocardiography is routinely used in the ...
In vivo staining (also called vital staining or intravital staining) is the process of dyeing living tissues. By causing certain cells or structures to take on contrasting colours, their form ( morphology) or position within a cell or tissue can be readily seen and studied. The usual purpose is to reveal cytological details that might otherwise ...
Ecophysiology(from Greekοἶκος, oikos, "house(hold)"; φύσις, physis, "nature, origin"; and -λογία, -logia), environmental physiologyor physiological ecologyis a biologicaldisciplinethat studies the response of an organism's physiologyto environmental conditions. It is closely related to comparative physiologyand evolutionary ...

It develops and offers services, technology and systems that specialize in treatment, purification, cleaning and hygiene of water in a wide variety of applications. [2] Founded as Economics Laboratory in 1923 by Merritt J. Osborn, it was eventually renamed "Ecolab ...
Chemical ecology. Chemical ecology is the study of chemically mediated interactions between living organisms, and the effects of those interactions on the demography, behavior and ultimately evolution of the organisms involved. It is thus a vast and highly interdisciplinary field. [ 1][ 2] Chemical ecologists seek to identify the specific ...
