The Rock Pigeon, Columba livia, is rare in natural environments but extremely successful in urban areas all over the world. Management programs are important because it is considered a pest in many cities. Nevertheless, no appropriate evaluation of methods to estimate urban pigeon populations is available in the literature. We compared three methods: a) the frequently used Stratified grids; b) Point counts, i.e. total pigeon counts with a mechanic counter in sampling points with a 50m radius; and c) Panoramas, 360o panoramic photographs. In nine urban parks in central Costa Rica, we made 1350 counts in total and compared: coefficient of variation (to assess precision); accuracy; time counting or taking photographs in situ; time merging photographs, counting pigeons in photographs, or typing data; and advantages or disadvantages. The Panorama Method is cheap, precise, accurate, secure, fast and easy. It can be used as an indicator or to estimate the actual population.

Agmenellum quadruplicatum is a unicellular, non-nitrogen-fixing, marine cyanobacterium (blue-green alga). The ultrastructure of this organism, when grown in the laboratory with all necessary nutrients, has been characterized thoroughly. In contrast, little is known of its ultrastructure in the specific nutrient-limiting conditions typical of its natural habitat. Iron is one of the nutrients likely to limit this organism in such natural environments. It is also of great importance metabolically, being required for both photosynthesis and assimilation of nitrate. The purpose of this study was to assess the effects (if any) of iron limitation on the ultrastructure of A. quadruplicatum. It was part of a broader endeavor to elucidate the ultrastructure of cyanobacteria in natural systemsActively growing cells were placed in a growth medium containing 1% of its usual iron. The cultures were then sampled periodically for 10 days and prepared for thin sectioning TEM to assess the effects of iron limitation.
