Linking differences in personality to demography in the wandering albatross

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Population dynamics are shaped by individual differences. With a good understanding of the relationships between individual differences and vital rates, population models can be improved to yield more realistic and detailed demographic projections. Personality is expected to shape individual differences in performance.

Coexistence, crossover and extirpation in coalescent communities and ecotones

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
When two ecological communities come into contact, the strength of their mixing determines whether species coexist, extirpate, or extend their ranges. We present analytical formulas and simulations describing these transitions. Specifically, we derive abundance shifts upon community coalescence, identify the critical mixing strength leading to first ...

Free Vibration of Hemp Fiber‐Reinforced Laminated Composite Curved Beams Using Generalized Differential Quadrature Method

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Schematic representation of hemp‐, glass‐, and carbon‐based laminated composite curved beams, including different stacking sequences and their vibration response. ABSTRACT In recent years, increasing environmental awareness has stimulated growing interest in natural fiber‐reinforced composites (NFRCs) due to their eco‐friendly composition ...

Residue dynamics and dietary risks of diflufenican and flufenacet in wheat using field experiments and model simulations

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Combining field trials with model simulations allows for an effective and efficient evaluation of residues of herbicides diflufenican and flufenacet in wheat and related dietary risks for humans. Abstract BACKGROUND Pesticide usage and related food safety and human health concerns have received great attention worldwide.

Impact of Packaging and Recycling Systems on Material Recirculation: A Stage‐Decomposition Model

open access: yesPackaging Technology and Science, EarlyView.
A system‐level view emerges from decomposing recycling into four stages (participation, collection, sorting and process yield), diagnosing constraints and targeting interventions. Cumulative equivalent uses (CEUs) quantify long‐term retention, revealing marginal improvements at high baselines generate disproportionately larger gains than low‐baseline ...
