Wind, waves, wing loading and the flight energetics of giant petrels

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Wind is a major factor driving seabird movement and energetics, the effects of which are modulated by morphology. Developments in tagging technology now make it possible to test predictions from aerodynamic theory about the effects of wind on flight performance in free ...

Queering Institutional Milestones in Elite Higher Education: Queer Perspectives on Princeton University and Coeducation (1960–1980)

Gender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A new archive of oral history interviews from LGBTQIA‐identified alumni, faculty and staff reveals the complex ways that queer and transgender students understood, experienced and remembered the long transition from single‐sex to coeducation at Princeton University.

Acoustic gravity wave growth and damping in convecting plasma

Annales Geophysicae
The propagation of acoustic gravity waves through steadily convecting plasma in the thermosphere has been analysed theoretically. The growth and damping rates of internal gravity waves due to the feedback effects of wave-modulated Joule heating and ...

A study of time-fractional model for atmospheric internal waves with Caputo-Fabrizio derivative.

PLoS ONE
The internal atmospheric waves are gravity waves and occur in the inner part of the fluid system. In this study, a time-fractional model for internal atmospheric waves is investigated with the Caputo-Fabrizio time-fractional differential operator.

The First World War at Sea: Death, Commemoration and Cultural Remembrance

History, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite the ever‐increasing body of work devoted to war memorials, national days of remembrance and the commemoration of the First World War in Britain, academic focus remains firmly on the commemoration of the First World War on land. Yet, while the number of people who died at sea paled in comparison to their counterparts on the battlefield ...

An intrusion layer in stationary incompressible fluids Part 2: A solitary wave

, 2006
The propagation of a solitary wave in a horizontal fluid layer is studied. There is an interfacial free surface above and below this intrusion layer, which is moving at constant speed through a stationary density-stratified fluid system.

Satellite observations of atmospheric gravity waves

, 2010
A new methodology of gravity wave observations has been developed for the HIgh Resolution Dynamics Limb Sounder (HIRDLS). Individual vertical profiles of gravity-wave temperature perturbations that were determined by subtraction of a dynamic 31 day ...

Rendezvous in Space: Tech Diplomacy and the Commercial Space Era—A Study of Rendezvous and Docking Technologies and Space Exploration Co‐Operation Since the Cold War

Global Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT On‐orbit rendezvous and docking constitute one of the most technically challenging activities in the history of space activities. As space endeavours mature to crewed missions, space rendezous and docking technologies (RDT) emerge as an area of technological innovation critical to advances in future crewed space exploration.

Towards an ‘absolute’ timing of biostratigraphic and environmental phases from the Saalian late glacial to the Weichselian pleniglacial in central Europe—Insights from a lacustrine succession in Lichtenberg, northern Germany

Boreas, EarlyView.
Palynological records are central to the biostratigraphic subdivision of the Late Pleistocene in central Europe. Yet many interglacial and interstadial phases—such as the Eemian, Brörup and Odderade—remain only poorly constrained in time due to limited numerical dating.
