Reinterpreting Bateman Gradients: Multiple Mating and Selection in Both Sexes of a Songbird Species
No full textBateman’s principle, which states that male reproductive success should increase with multiple mating, whereas female reproductive success should not, has long been used to explain sex differences in behavior. The statistical relationship between mating success and reproductive success, or Bateman gradient, has been proposed as a way to quantify sex differences in sexual selection. We used a long-term data set on the distribution of paternity in the socially monogamous dark-eyed junco to examine the effect of multiple mating on lifetime reproductive success and to determine the relative contributions of within-pair and extra-pair mating. Both sexes exhibited a strong positive Bateman gradient, even when the number of breeding years was accounted for. Although theory suggests that this pattern indicates a strong potential for sexual selection in both sexes, we argue that the interpretation of strong Bateman gradients, particularly in females, has many potential complications. We discuss several alternative explanations for our results, none of which requires sexual selection acting on female traits, including targeting of inherently fecund females by males seeking extra-pair mates and increased power to detect extra-pair offspring as family size increases. Because neither of these explanations requires that increased mating success causes increased reproductive success, we conclude that using Bateman gradients to measure the potential for sexual selection may be misleading for some mating systems and life histories, such as the iteroparous social monogamy found in juncos
Zwolse stadskrans; herstructurering door stedelijke inbreiding
No full textEen moderne stad van de 21e eeuw vraagt om nieuwe bestemmingen voor strategisch gelegen locaties in bestaand stedelijk gebied. Voor een aantal locaties rond de historische binnenstad van Zwolle zijn ruimtelijke veranderingsmogelijkheden, maar nog geen uitgekristalliseerde plannen. Nieuw bij de inbreiding is het 'krans'-denken. De stadskrans is de zone om de binnenstad, deze functioneert als overgang tussen de binnenstad en de omliggende wijken. Daarbij is het uitgangspunt dat de krans als geheel gezien wordt: een kralensnoer dat bestaat uit verschillende kralen met elk hun eigen thema, karakter en verschijningsvorm. De invulling van de gebieden is het resultaat van twee factoren: het huidige/beoogde karakter van het gebied en het schaalniveau waaraan het gebied gekoppeld is. Het karakter heeft alles te maken met het gebruik en de functionaliteit, zoals onderwijs, cultuur en bedrijvigheid e.d. Het schaalniveau is gekoppeld aan het infrastructurele netwerk, zoals de rijksweg A28, het spoor en de regionale wegen. Het centrum blijft het belangrijkste gebied van de stad, maar kan niet groeien door de fysieke barri van de singel. Aan de andere kant van de singel, op steenworp afstand van de binnenstad, liggen gebieden die door middel van herstructurering het centrum kunnen ondersteunen. Deze gebieden kunnen ruimte bieden aan centrumstedelijke woonmilieus nabij de binnenstad mogelijk gecombineerd met representatieve bedrijvigheid, detailhandel, dienstverlening, horeca, leisure, kantoren en (centrum-)parkeervoorzieningen.Architectur

RECEPTION OF THE EUROPEAN CITY IN THE PROSE BY E.D. AIPIN (CONCERNING THE URBAN CODE OF THE KHANTY LITERATURE)
No full textPurpose. The article is devoted to the issue of the urban text, being quite topical in the modern Finno-Ugric philology. The subject of analysis is the reception of the European topos in the works by a leading Khanty writer E.D. Aipin. The author aims to reveal the formation of the urban code in the Khanty literature as based on the example of the works by E.D. Aipin.
Method or methodology of the work. The basis of the research are the historical-cultural and comparative methods, as well as modern approaches to a selective sample analysis of a literary text.
Results. The results of the work lie in the fact that the author interprets the processes of formation of the urban code in the writer’s work of art as well as in national literature of the Khanty people. The research confirms a feature of E.D. Aipin’s idiostyle that was revealed earlier. The author claims the approach that the Khanty writer selected, i.e. the view at a European city through the eyes of a traveler, quite harmoniously represents both the topos and process of metatext formation in the literary work.
Field of practical application of the results. The results of the research can be applied in the field of literary and interdisciplinary humanitarian studies
