Perceptions of female age, health and attractiveness vary with systematic hair manipulations
Two experiments were conducted to study how lay individuals evaluate systematic changes in female head hair. The results showed that participants tended to rate high‐shine hair more favourably than lower‐shine hair. When combining shine with alignment and volume, straight‐aligned hair with high shine and low volume was generally perceived as more ...

Minimizing aviation lighting duration reduces bat attraction to wind turbines
This study provides empirical evidence that attraction behaviour of bats towards wind turbines is driven, at least partially, by red aviation lighting. We also demonstrate that smart lighting of wind turbines, such as the ADLS, could cost‐effectively help mitigate disruption of bat habitat use and the associated collision risks.

This study provides the first comprehensive, regionally scalable distribution estimates for pinnipeds across the NWES and its constituent countries. The modelling framework is adaptable to other central‐place and migratory species, supporting transboundary biodiversity assessments and international conservation policy. We discuss common limitations and
