Forage crop
A forage crop is a plant grown to be grazed by animals or harvested as feed, including grasses, legumes such as alfalfa, and tree foliage.
Foraging
Foraging: animal behavior of searching for, acquiring, and using food and nutrients. Central framework is optimal foraging theory (MacArthur and Pianka 1966), covering diet choice, patch use, and movement.
Foraging and ecological role of paper wasps
Paper wasps (Polistes) are social vespids that hunt caterpillars and other soft-bodied insects to feed larvae while adults drink nectar, giving them roles as pest predators, backup pollinators, and, in experiments, biocontrol agents in Brassica, sugarcane, and maize crops.
Foraging task (behavioral neuroscience)
A foraging task is a behavioral neuroscience paradigm in which a participant repeatedly decides whether to stay with a depleting resource patch or leave it for a new one.
Foraker Act
The Foraker Act, formally the Organic Act of 1900, was a U.S. federal law signed in April 1900 that replaced military rule in Puerto Rico with a civilian government.
Foral of the Captaincies
The Foral of the Captaincies (Forais das Capitanias Hereditárias) is the charter by which King João III defined the rights of Brazil's hereditary captaincy donatários, 1534 to 1536.
FORAM index
The FORAM Index, proposed by Pamela Hallock and colleagues in 2003, is a single-number indicator calculated from foraminiferal assemblages in surface sediments that shows whether reef water quality can support calcifying organisms, including reef-building corals.
Foramen magnum
Foramen magnum, the largest skull foramen, an oval opening in the occipital bone transmitting the medulla, vertebral arteries, and CN XI roots; key landmark in bipedalism and Chiari surgery.
Foramen ovale (heart)
Foramen ovale (heart): fetal opening between the right and left atria, also called the oval foramen, shunting blood past the lungs; normally closes at birth, persisting as a patent foramen ovale in about 25% of adults.
Foraminifera
Foraminifera, commonly called forams, are single-celled marine protists that build shells called tests and have a fossil record reaching back to the Cambrian, about 545 million years ago.
Foraminifera and Cenozoic climate evolution
Foraminifera and Cenozoic climate evolution is the reconstruction of Earth's climate over the last 66 million years from oxygen and carbon isotopes in fossil foraminiferal shells.
Foraminifera and early Cenozoic hyperthermal events
Fossil foraminifera record the early Cenozoic hyperthermals, abrupt warming events beginning with the PETM about 56 million years ago, marked by carbon isotope excursions, benthic extinction, and dwarfing.
Foraminifera in hydrocarbon exploration
Foraminifera in hydrocarbon exploration are shelled marine microfossils recovered from drill cuttings and cores, used by the petroleum industry to date, correlate, and interpret subsurface strata.
Foraminifera in paleoceanography
Foraminifera in paleoceanography is the use of fossil foraminiferal assemblages preserved in seafloor sediment to reconstruct past ocean conditions, including sea-surface temperature, productivity, and oxygenation.
Foraminifera in paleoclimatology
Foraminifera in paleoclimatology is the study of foraminiferal shells in seafloor sediments, whose oxygen isotope, trace metal, and assemblage signatures reconstruct past ocean temperature, ice volume, and salinity.
Foraminifera in sea-level and coastal reconstruction
Foraminifera in sea-level and coastal reconstruction is the use of salt-marsh foraminifera, whose species occupy narrow tidal elevations, to reconstruct past sea levels from dated cores.
Foraminiferal biostratigraphy and zonation
Foraminiferal biostratigraphy and zonation is the dating and correlation of sedimentary rocks using the stratigraphic ranges of foraminifera, whose planktonic zones average about one million years each.
Foraminiferal databases and curated collections
Foraminiferal databases and curated collections are the taxonomic registries, isotope compilations, occurrence databases, and museum collections that make foraminiferal research reproducible, covering roughly 48,000 accepted species.
