The CSI Effect and Its Potential Impact on Juror Decisions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The “CSI Effect” was first described in the media as a phenomenon resulting from viewing forensic and crime based television shows. This effect influences jurors to have unrealistic expectations of forensic science during a criminal trial and affect ...

The influence of rivers on seabird foraging ecology

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rivers act as vital arteries to the world's oceans, delivering fresh water and nutrients that sustain marine ecosystems. Globally, river flow increasingly is being altered by climate change and anthropogenic pressures; yet the significance of rivers to predatory marine species, such as seabirds, and the extent to which river‐related changes ...

Black Rhino Diceros Bicornis Minor mortality in the Kruger National Park

open access: yesKoedoe: African Protected Area Conservation and Science, 1980
The death of two black rhinos (Diceros bicornis minor) in the Kruger National Park is described. A diagnosis of lamsiekte, or botulism, was made, based on typical clinical findings backed by circumstantial evidence.

Benefit Corporations: The Moral Legitimacy That Requires More Rules

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines why Italian for‐profit firms convert to Benefit Corporation status and how they navigate the ensuing hybridization. Survey data from 118 companies are interpreted through a pragmatic and moral legitimacy lens. Results show that the main trigger is pragmatic legitimacy: managers seek to strengthen trust with internal and ...

Addressing the Attitude Behaviour Perception Gap—Multimethod Sustainable Tourist Behaviour Evaluation

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Quantitative and perceptual studies have been used to define and model sustainable tourist behaviour in past years, but few studies have undertaken qualitative research of actual behaviour to delve deeper into understanding the different classifications of such behaviour. This research employed a three‐phase design, comprising a pretrip survey,

Strategies to Enhance Ionic Conductivity of Na3Zr2Si2O12 Solid Electrolyte for Advanced Solid‐State Sodium Batteries

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
This review presents a comprehensive summary and discussion of some optimization strategies for enhancing room‐temperature ionic conductivity of Na3Zr2Si2PO12 (NZSP) solid electrolyte for solid‐state sodium batteries, including foreign‐ion doping or substitution, sintering behavior modulation, and regulation of chemical composition based on precursors.

Radical Stability Paradox: Substituent Effects versus Heats of Formation

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Rethinking molecular stability: Quantum‐chemical analyses show that the greater stability of tertiary over primary organic radicals is not caused by stabilizing substituent effects but by the inherent stability of the substituent. ABSTRACT Recently, we have shown that alkyl substituents destabilize the carbon radical center of organic radicals. However,
