Security versus Reliability Analysis of Opportunistic Relaying
Physical-layer security is emerging as a promising paradigm of securing wireless communications against eavesdropping between legitimate users, when the main link spanning from source to destination has better propagation conditions than the wiretap link

Experimental Fire Measurement with UAV Multimodal Stereovision
In wildfire research, systems that are able to estimate the geometric characteristics of fire, in order to understand and model the behavior of this spreading and dangerous phenomenon, are required. Over the past decade, there has been a growing interest

Evaluation of wildland fire smoke plume dynamics and aerosol load using UV scanning lidar and fire–atmosphere modelling during the Mediterranean Letia 2010 experiment [PDF]
Vegetation fires emit large amount of gases and aerosols which are detrimental to human health. Smoke exposure near and downwind of fires depends on the fire propagation, the atmospheric circulations and the burnt vegetation.

Numerical Assessment of Safe Separation Distance in the Wildland–Urban Interfaces
A safe separation distance (SSD) needs to be considered during firefighting activities (fire suppression or people evacuation) against wildfires. The SSD is of critical interest for both humans and assets located in the wildland–urban interfaces (WUI ...

Aromatic plants, nest bacterial diversity, and nestling condition in Corsican blue tits
According to the ‘nest protection hypothesis', some passerines incorporate fresh aromatic plants into their nests which reduce pathogens that can negatively affect nestlings. We experimentally evaluated the effect of five aromatic plant species on the nest bacterial microbiota of Corsican blue tits Cyanistes caeruleus.

Assessing wildfire dynamics during a megafire in Portugal using the MesoNH/ForeFire coupled model
Weather conditions affect megafires by inducing different fire behaviors over several days or weeks. The coupled MesoNH/ForeFire code was used to represent the dynamics of fire generating pyro‐convective clouds. To advance the understanding of wildfire dynamics, high‐resolution coupled fire–atmosphere modeling was employed.

Nationalist movements and the state in Canada and France : ethno-territorial protest movements in Québec and Corsica, 1960 to 1995 [PDF]
Since the early 1960s ethno-territorial movements have increasingly challenged established patterns of political integration in western democracies.

ABSTRACT This study aims to analyse how regions benefit from developing urban agriculture into the research and innovation smart specialisation strategy (RIS3). To this end, the socio‐economic structural variables employed by the EU to design regional RIS3s were analysed from a sample of 100 European regions.
