Within‐tree spatial heterogeneity of sap flow velocities and wood properties and its effect on the uncertainty of tree level sap flux estimates

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
As forests are important for biodiversity and recreation and provide vital resources globally, it is essential that their health can be accurately monitored, for example, by using sap flow probes to measure tree water uptake. We investigated whether sap flow measurements might differ at various locations within the same tree due to variation in wood ...

The Host‐Guest Assemblies of Metal–Organic Frameworks and Protic Ionic Liquids With ZIF‐8 and [Dema][TfO] – Structural Response and Ionic Conductivity

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
MOFs can serve as effective proton conductors owing to their porous structures and well‐defined channels. In this study, the protic ionic liquid [Dema][TfO] is introduced into ZIF‐8 cages. The confined [Dema][TfO] can transfer between adjacent ZIF‐8 cages, inducing cage expansion through the swing effect.

Influence of researcher presence towards nest attendance and breeding of barn owls Tyto javanica javanica

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Human disturbance to nesting raptors can influence breeding success, especially during early breeding. This study examined the impact of researcher presence, a relatively low impact human disturbance, on eastern barn owls Tyto javanica javanica during monitoring of 57 nest‐boxes in oil palm plantations in Malaysia over a period of 30 months.

Broadening participation: Measuring the mental health of pupils with special educational needs and disabilities

open access: yesBritish Journal of Special Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Pupils in non‐mainstream settings, including special schools and alternative provision, are rarely included in large‐scale school‐based mental health surveys. As a result, the needs and experiences of children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) are often absent from population‐level data. This study assessed the feasibility
