PREDATOR COMMUNITY AND RESEARCHER‐INDUCED IMPACTS ON NEST SUCCESS OF RIO GRANDE WILD TURKEYS IN TEXAS

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2010
: Rio Grande wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo intermedia) populations in Texas appear to be declining, and poor nest success could be contributing to the decline.

Thalamo‐Lesional Connectivity Signatures of Bilateral Tonic–Clonic Seizures in Focal Cortical Dysplasia‐Related Epilepsy

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) is the most common etiology of drug‐resistant epilepsy in children. Focal to bilateral tonic–clonic seizures (FBTCS) mark a high risk of drug‐resistant epilepsy and involve thalamocortical circuitry in their generation and propagation.

Fostering Innovation: Streamlining Magnetocaloric Materials Research by Digitalization

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Magnetocaloric cooling (MCE) is an environmentally friendly refrigeration method with great potential. Optimizing MCE materials involves the preparation and screening of large quantities of samples, which in turn generates a large amount of data. A digitalization approach is presented that uses ontologies, knowledge graphs, and digital workflows to ...

Snakes are the principal nest predators of the threatened reed parrotbill in a coastal wetland of eastern China

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation, 2020
Nest predation is a major limiting factor of bird reproductive success, and predation by snakes may have particularly adverse effects on passerines. The reed parrotbill (Paradoxornis heudei) is a threatened passerine that inhabits reedbeds in East China,

Habitat selection and reproduction of red-backed shrikes (Lanius collurio) in relation to abundance of potential avian nest predators [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Many studies of farmland bird species have related abundance of species to different habitat variables, whereas few studies have incorporated the effects of predation on habitat selection. However, it is generally assumed that prey species select habitat

Symbolic Regression and Multi‐Objective Optimization of the Flory–Huggins Interaction Parameter for Hydrogels

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
We develop a data‐driven method to derive the mathematical expressions of the Flory–Huggins interaction parameter χ for the swelling behavior of temperature–responsive hydrogels. Starting from initial assumptions of χ, our workflow combines Bayesian optimization, Flory–Rehner theory, and symbolic regression to generate candidate χ expressions.

Ecological impacts of Australian Ravens on bush bird communities on Rottnest Island [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The Australian Raven Corvus coronoides is a predator of the eggs and nestlings of bush birds on Rottnest Island, Western Australia. Nest predation is a threatening process of island birds, and when combined with other threatening processes, such as ...
