Bed‐level tools for monitoring erosion and accretion patterns: Flume validation and field testing

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Monitoring short‐term changes in surface sediment elevation is fundamental to understanding erosion, transport, and deposition dynamics in shallow coastal environments. However, commonly used field approaches, such as horizontal markers, sediment erosion tables, subsurface sediment plates, or erosion pins, are not always cross‐validated under ...

No evidence that carotenoid pigments boost either immune or antioxidant defenses in a songbird

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Dietary carotenoids have been proposed to have physiological benefits in addition to contributing to coloration. Here, Koch et al. compare immune and antioxidant functions in yellow, carotenoid-rich vs.

Leveraging Public Transit for Robotic Deliveries: A Column Generation Approach

open access: yesNaval Research Logistics (NRL), EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) are small, electric, wheeled vehicles that operate at pedestrian speeds. In the last‐mile delivery service considered in this study, a fleet of AMRs is deployed across multiple recharging depots within a service area, from which they depart to perform point‐to‐point deliveries. We consider an operational setting

Taxonomy and phylogeny of the intercontinental disjunctive ferns: series Reniformia Adiantum

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
There are disputed opinions about the three taxa of series Reniformia, namely A. nelumboides X.C.Zhang (A. reniforme var. sinense Y.X.Lin), A. reniforme var. reniforme, and A. reniforme var. asarifolium (Willd.) R. Sim, owing to their similar morphology but intercontinental disjunctive distribution and close lineage with the series Venusta (only ...

Pointer authentication for memory protection: Stack canaries and beyond [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Memory corruption vulnerabilities, such as stack-based buffer overflows, continue to be a major threat for programs written in the C language. A widely deployed method for protecting against stack-based buffer overflows is to use stack canaries. However,

Racial and Ethnic Differences in Nonresponse Rate to Experiences of Discrimination: A Secondary Analysis of the nuMoM2b Dataset

open access: yesResearch in Nursing &Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Discrimination drives racial and ethnic disparities in maternal mortality and morbidity, imposing both a human and economic burden. Yet, discrimination is challenging to measure accurately. Little is published in perinatal literature about nonresponse bias to experiences of discrimination and how to mitigate this effect to obtain more complete

Drivers of metabolic density‐dependence: how resource availability and conspecific cues affect phytoplankton metabolism

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Metabolism is density‐dependent from unicellular to multicellular organisms. Understanding what drives metabolic suppression is important to explain population growth given the link between metabolism and biomass production. In the simplest scenario, metabolic suppression is caused by a reduction in resource availability with increasing population ...
