Molecular Ecology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Camouflage is a critical survival strategy that helps to evade predation and increase hunting success. Background matching and disruptive colouration are different camouflage strategies that are subject to different selective pressures and can drive divergence in their associated traits such as colour pattern and behaviour.

On the importance of using appropriate link-to-system interfaces for the study of link adaptation [PDF]
, 2003 Link Adaptation is an adaptive radio link technique that selects a transport mode, from a set of predefined modes of varying robustness, depending on the channel quality conditions and dynamics.

A Hidden Markov Model for Localization Using Low-End GSM Cell Phones [PDF]
arXiv, 2010 Research in location determination for GSM phones has gained interest recently as it enables a wide set of location based services. RSSI-based techniques have been the preferred method for GSM localization on the handset as RSSI information is available in all cell phones.

Public Administration, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper examines socioeconomic status (SES) as an indicator for decision‐making among frontline professionals in healthcare, focusing on general practitioners (GPs). Aside from research on stereotypes, we know little about how frontline professionals reason about SES in decision‐making. This study addresses this gap by investigating how GPs

Feasibility of a Finger Food Menu for Older Adults Post Stroke in Hospital
Journal of Human Nutrition and Dietetics, Volume 38, Issue 3, June 2025.ABSTRACT Background Many people in hospital after a stroke are at risk of reduced food intake, leading to less effective post‐stroke recovery. Finger foods (foods that can be easily transferred from the plate to the mouth without cutlery) have the potential to increase food intake and enable mealtime independence.

Gaussian Schell Source as Model for Slit-Collimated Atomic and Molecular Beams [PDF]
arXiv, 2008 We derive the spatial coherence and intensity profiles of beams emerging from two consecutive collimating apertures, and compare our results with data. We show how to make a Gaussian Schell-model (GSM) beam by assuming Gaussian apertures. Then we compare the intensity profile, the transverse coherence width and the divergence angle of a GSM beam with ...
