Caregiver Reports on the Needs and Experiences of Children Impacted by Parental Incarceration: Results From an Australian Survey

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Children experiencing parental imprisonment are known to be among the most overlooked in our community. They often experience multiple and compounding disadvantages, with long‐term consequences, but receive no specialised assistance. Knowledge about these children and their families is lacking in Australia and is required to inform policy ...

Enabling the study of gene function in gymnosperms: Virus‐induced gene silencing in Ephedra tweedieana

Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise As the sister clade to angiosperms, extant gymnosperms are crucial for reconstructing ancestral gene regulatory networks in seed plants. This highlights the need for model systems representing each of their distinct lineages. However, tools to quickly and effectively investigate gene function in gymnosperms are still limited due to the

Information Channels in Labor Markets. On the Resilience of Referral Hiring [PDF]

Economists and sociologists disagree over markets' potential to assume functions typically performed by networks of personal connections, first among them the transmission of information.

Semi‐automated assessment for NatureServe subnational conservation status ranks for state floras

Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Conservation status ranks measure the potential risk of extinction for species at global, national, and subnational levels, taking into account rarity, threats, and trends. These assessments are largely incomplete due to funding and resource limitations.

Functional models from limited data: A parametric and multimodal approach to anatomy and 3D kinematics of feeding in basking sharks (Cetorhinus maximus)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Basking sharks, Cetorhinus maximus (Gunnerus, Brugden [Squalus maximus], Det Kongelige Norske Videnskabers Selskabs Skrifter, 1765, vol. 3, pp. 33–49), feed by gaping their mouths and gill slits, greatly reorienting their cranial skeletons to filter food from water.

Multi‐method analysis for the three‐dimensional reconstruction of muscle fascicles from DiceCT datasets

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Muscle architecture is a major determinant of muscle performance and, in mammalian lineages, has been correlated with both feeding ecology and locomotor behaviors. Over the past decade, contrast‐enhanced micro‐CT (DiceCT) has emerged as an alternative to traditional dissection‐based measurement.

Re‐evaluation of a soft crested Edmontosaurin, with implications for hadrosaurid life appearance and diversity

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Hadrosaurid dinosaurs are generally regarded as “crested” or “non‐crested” depending on the presence or absence of a bony cranial crest. At least one supposedly “non‐crested” hadrosaur is known to have possessed a soft tissue cranial crest (or comb), based on an exceptionally preserved “mummified” specimen. Here we redescribe this specimen and

Growth dynamics, skeletochronology, and histovariability of the theropod dinosaur Berthasaura leopoldinae

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Osteohistological sampling on different bones of theropod dinosaur documents discrepant age record, growth, and metabolism. This could result unprecise paleobiological inferences if samplings are based on single bones. However, multi‐bone sampling can attenuate these discrepancies, helping to infer growth dynamics and physiology of these extinct ...

Snap-Stabilizing Tasks in Anonymous Networks

Theory of Computing Systems, 2016
We consider snap-stabilizing algorithms in anonymous networks. Self-stabilizing algorithms are well known fault tolerant algorithms : a self-stabilizing algorithm will eventually recover from arbitrary transient faults. On the other hand, an algorithm is snap-stabilizing if it can withstand arbitrary initial values and immediately satisfy its safety ...

Under the Shade of a Coolabah Tree: A Second Cache of Tulas From the Boulia District, Western Queensland

Archaeology in Oceania, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper reports on the excavation of a cache of stone artefacts, buried on the bank of a waterhole or ‘billabong’ in central western Queensland. This is an extremely rare find, and yet it is the second such site to be reported within less than a 10 km radius.
