The development of complex verb constructions in British Sign Language [PDF]

, 2002
This study focuses on the mapping of events onto verb-argument structures in British Sign Language (BSL). The development of complex sentences in BSL is described in a group of 30 children, aged 3;2–12;0, using data from comprehension measures and ...

Impacts of Climate Change and Human Activities on Global Mountain Grasslands: Insights Into the Last Two Decades and Future Climate Scenarios

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Mountain grasslands are vital ecosystems providing critical services such as carbon sequestration, water regulation, and biodiversity conservation. However, these ecosystems are increasingly threatened by climate change and human activities. This study evaluates vegetation dynamics in global mountain grasslands (2000–2021) using remote sensing

Restoring Mediterranean heathlands for declining birds: Initial responses to mosaic cutting and prescribed burning in the Natura 2000 LIFE program

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 2, February 2026.
Initial responses of open habitat birds indicate that mechanical cutting and burning in heathlands can maintain habitat to support open habitat bird species when applied in a mosaic approach. Vegetation treatments that resemble historic disturbance regimes (spatially and temporally staggered small‐scale interventions) are recommended to regenerate ...

Detection of major ASL sign types in continuous signing for ASL recognition [PDF]

, 2016
In American Sign Language (ASL) as well as other signed languages, different classes of signs (e.g., lexical signs, fingerspelled signs, and classifier constructions) have different internal structural properties. Continuous sign recognition accuracy can
