Polyandrous females avoid costs of inbreeding [PDF]

, 2002
Why do females typically mate with more than one male? Female mating patterns have broad implications for sexual selection, speciation and conflicts of interest between the sexes, and yet they are poorly understood. Matings inevitably have costs, and for

The Intersections of Biological Diversity and Cultural Diversity: Towards Integration [PDF]

, 2009
There is an emerging recognition that the diversity of life comprises both biological and cultural diversity. In the past, however, it has been common to make divisions between nature and culture, arising partly out of a desire to control nature.

Bio‐Inspired Strategy for Radiation‐Based Thermal Management and Utilization

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Biological organisms have evolved remarkable strategies to manage and exploit thermal radiation. This review explores bio‐inspired systems that mimic these adaptations—such as radiative cooling, thermal regulation, thermal insulation, water harvesting, infrared camouflage, and infrared detection—and highlights their application in thermal management ...

Not all surveillance data are created equal—A multi‐method dynamic occupancy approach to determine rabies elimination from wildlife [PDF]

, 2019
1. A necessary component of elimination programmes for wildlife disease is effective surveillance. The ability to distinguish between disease freedom and non‐detection can mean the difference between a successful elimination campaign and new epizootics ...

Moisture Harvesting by the Structure Regulation of Hygroscopic Hydrogel for Energy and Water Sustainability

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Hygroscopic hydrogels are capable of utilizing the moisture from air, which can transfer the gaseous water to liquid by a surface phase transition. Taking advantage of this water, sustainable water production, thermal management, and electricity generation can be realized.

Medications, epilepsy and climate change: Added layers of complexity

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Climate change—the global crisis with pervasive health impacts—has adverse consequences for people with epilepsy (PWE) who have low quality of life due to poor seizure control, socioeconomic disadvantages and comorbidities. This review focuses on the potential effects of climate change on the pharmacological characteristics of antiseizure medications ...
