Understanding the 13C and 15N enrichments between primate diet hair is necessary for reconstructing diets ecology. However, dietary lipids need to be controlled in order accurately estimate enrichment factors (ϵ*). We report diet-hair vervet monkeys (Chlorocebus aethiops sabaeus) based on a study captivity. The were fed standard monkey chow exclusively. 13Cϵ*hair-diet 15Nϵ*hair-diet values male adults 2.8‰ 2.9‰, respectively; those lactating females 2.4‰ 2.2‰, respectively. isotope from...

Abstract Understanding thermal gradients is essential for sustainability of built-up ecosystems, biodiversity conservation, and human health. Urbanized environments in the tropics have received little attention on underlying factors processes governing variability as compared to temperate environments, despite worsening heat stress exposure from global warming. This study characterized near surface air temperature (NST) land (LST) profiles across Kenyatta University, main campus, located...
