Geographical distribution of the Pinnated Bittern (Botaurus pinnatus): Update and seasonal movement pattern

Ibis, EarlyView.
The Pinnated Bittern Botaurus pinnatus (Ardeidae) is a widely distributed Neotropical wading bird whose distribution and seasonal status remain poorly resolved. Discrepancies among published literature, citizen science records and the range currently assumed by BirdLife International indicate that both its geographical distribution and migratory ...

Solution of Linear Radiative Transfer Equation in Hollow Sphere by Diamond Difference Discrete Ordinates and Decomposition Methods

Semina: Ciências Exatas e Tecnológicas
In this article, we present a methodology to solve radiative transfer problems in spherical geometry without other forms of heat exchange. We use a decomposition method based on the Adomian formulations, together with a diamond difference scheme and a ...

Geopoliticization and Support for Free Trade in the European Parliament: From Rhetorical Shift to Voting Results

JCMS: Journal of Common Market Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract Strategic and security considerations have become increasingly prominent in trade policy debates, fuelling both liberal and protectionist arguments. However, the extent to which this geopoliticization influences legislative trade attitudes in the European Parliament (EP) remains underexplored.

Discrete ordinates (SN) method for the first solution of the transport equation using Chebyshev polynomials

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2016
First estimates for the numerical solution of the one-dimensional neutron transport equation for one-speed neutrons in a finite homogeneous slab is studied. The neutrons are assumed to be scattered isotropically through the medium.

A new, conspicuously pigmented Pyrrhulina (Teleostei: Characiformes: Lebiasinidae) from the Río Tigre, Loreto, Peru

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract A new species of Pyrrhulina is described based on morphological and molecular evidence. Pyrrhulina punctata is distinguished from all congeners by the presence of a series of 7 to 16 irregular blotches of dark pigmentation on the flanks, equally marked in juveniles and adult specimens, the presence of 26–28 lateral‐line scales, 17–21 maxillary

Harnessing Human Mobility Data for Applied Economic Research: Current Knowledge, Challenges, and Emerging Opportunities

Journal of Economic Surveys, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper reviews how large‐scale mobility data can enhance economic analyses, highlighting its contributions to understanding travel behavior, labor markets, social interactions, and health outcomes. We discuss its advantages over traditional mobility data sources, which include real‐time location information and fine spatial resolution ...

Sleep Deprivation in Mice: Looking Beyond the Slow Wave Rebound

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sleep is a fundamental process supporting the dynamic regulation of neural function. Emerging methods have proposed that the aperiodic components of brain signals (such as the spectral slope, spectral intercept, and spectral knee), in addition to entropy‐based measures, offer robust empirical markers of neural states.

Religio‐Racial Lines, Intimate Ties: Christian–Muslim Couples, Birth Rituals, and the Bounds of Belonging

Journal for the Scientific Study of Religion, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Building on scholarship that conceptualizes race and religion as co‐constitutive forces within a “race‐religion constellation,” this article explores how this entanglement—profoundly infused and structured by secularity—is lived and negotiated in everyday life.

Truncated Gaussian simulation of discrete-valued, ordinal coregionalized variables

Computers & Geosciences, 2010
This paper deals with the modeling and cosimulation of ordinal coregionalized variables, such as indicators, counts or continuous-valued variables discretized into a limited number of classes. The proposed model relies on truncations of a set of cross-correlated stationary Gaussian random fields.
