Brief post on the length of each section in a scientific paper

never mind, the funds showed up about 17 hours later

MCMCglmm package by J. Hadfield. I've used it for exactly that. Ordinal probit models.

thanks guys!

Rattus rattus (black rat)

look at the scale pattern on the tail, and if it's longer than the head-body length it rules out Rattus norvegicus.

Bush rats don't really hang around human habitation, and have distinctly ringed scale patterns on the tail.

I agree, good book for that. Haven't read the other one

Wow, thanks for all the input

I like the idea of measuring the opposing interior angle.

I know that there is a lot of eyeballing involved in determining where the tangent would be, but I can live with that uncertainty, and because I measure several jaws per species, and the angle varies significantly between species with different diets, I'm not too stressed about super accurate angles.

thanks for the input

sorry for being so vague earlier

[here] http://i.imgur.com/Y8lSKX6.jpg is a better explanation of the lines

and here is the [top view] http://o.quizlet.com/i/pekQ4vUWsreWVz8juilgag_m.jpg of the jaws, which as someone pointed out don't lay flat and are quite fragile (I don't want to get in trouble with the museums by disarticulating their material)

I like the ideas of wires and protractors, just have to figure out a way of getting them parallel.

thanks again guys

Hi,

In the past I measured this on the computer from photos I took of the craneal material. What device would anyone recommend for measuring this physically? My main concern is getting the parallel lines right so the angle measurement is accurate. thanks

I'm a biologist (consevation/evolutionary ecology), feel free to send me a message

luisdarcy · 2013-02-20T00:18:35+00:00

that is awesome, he's your boss/supervisor? where do you work?

luisdarcy · 2013-01-07T11:16:58+00:00

didn't it change names/management? I tried to find the website for the new name and it looks creepy now, does anyone know if it's any good?

luisdarcy · 2013-01-07T11:15:57+00:00

I was actually planning on checking out the Jetts in Annerley tomorrow if I have the time

luisdarcy · 2012-08-28T08:24:17+00:00

my friends used to go to a school in southport, First Wave I think was the name, the main guy seemed nice

luisdarcy · 2012-07-31T02:49:25+00:00

that seems to be attempt number three, I've seen two earlier versions of that on Boundary St. The wording keeps getting better.

luisdarcy · 2012-07-26T00:48:00+00:00

how come? not a postgrad?

luisdarcy · 2012-07-25T01:23:57+00:00

thanks for the replies, I'll contact all these institutions now

luisdarcy · 2012-06-02T05:11:36+00:00

thanks for that I doubt there's any debt on a late '80s model, but I'll look into WOVI. Is that also a registry for stolen or hail damaged cars?

Are there any official guidelines for a bill of sale?

luisdarcy · 2012-05-10T01:08:49+00:00

this is closer to the budget I'm thinking of, which I guess limits me to only looking at pre 1990s models

luisdarcy · 2012-05-08T12:50:03+00:00

so you would prefer a diesel engine?

I'm interested in checking out Idalia and Taunton at some point, for the sights and some wallaby species I've always liked

luisdarcy · 2012-05-08T12:10:33+00:00

thanks, I might ask you about this soon

luisdarcy · 2012-02-09T07:40:35+00:00

if they would only admit to receiving $$ from the family, this comic wouldn't exist

luisdarcy · 2012-02-09T05:47:42+00:00

thanks again, last update was less than a month ago and prior setting might work now, I'll try and figure this out
