Radiometric absolute noise-temperature measurement system features improved accuracy and calibration ease [PDF]

open access: yes, 1970
Radiometric receiver system, which measures noise temperatures in degrees Kelvin, does not require cryogenic noise sources for routine operation. It eliminates radiometer calibration errors associated with RF attenuation measurements.

Assessing Spatiotemporal Side Effects of Diversionary Feeding on Mesopredators

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
We tested whether diversionary feeding alters the space use, aggregation, or activity patterns of mesopredators using a treatment‐control design with camera traps. Although both species frequently used feeding stations, diversionary feeding did not significantly affect their spatial distribution, aggregation, or temporal behaviour.

Poisson Representation of a Ewens Fragmentation Process [PDF]

open access: yesCombinatorics, Probability and Computing, 2007
A simple explicit construction is provided of a partition-valued fragmentation process whose distribution on partitions of [n] = 1,. . .,nat time θ ≥ 0 is governed by the Ewens sampling formula with parameter θ. These partition-valued processes are exchangeable and consistent, asnvaries. They can be derived by uniform sampling from a corresponding mass

Prey Partitioning in a Diverse Carnivore Community: Implications for Reintroduced Fishers in Washington

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Using fecal DNA metabarcoding, we quantified dietary overlap among reintroduced fishers and sympatric coyotes, bobcats, and Pacific martens in Washington's North Cascades. Niche overlap was substantial for common prey but varied with body size, revealing fine‐scale resource partitioning that may limit fishers' access to energetically efficient prey ...

Successful repair of a carpal sheath synovial hernia using a polypropylene mesh

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary A cob‐cross mare presented with a carpal sheath synovial hernia on the distolateral antebrachium following carpal sheath tenoscopy to treat a radial physeal exostosis and deep digital flexor tendon injury. The presumed source of pain was the weakened skin over the hernia as the intrathecal pathology identified at the initial tenoscopy had ...

Risk Prediction Models for Oral Clefts Allowing for Phenotypic Heterogeneity

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2015
Oral clefts are common birth defects that have a major impact on the affected individual, their family and society. World-wide, the incidence of oral clefts is 1/700 live births, making them the most common craniofacial birth defects.

Eggshell pigment composition covaries with phylogeny but not with life history or with nesting ecology traits of British passerines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
No single hypothesis is likely to explain the diversity in eggshell coloration and patterning across birds, suggesting that eggshell appearance is most likely to have evolved to fulfill many nonexclusive functions.

Revisiting Asset Pricing Models: The Case for an Intangibles Factor

open access: yesFinancial Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In an increasingly knowledge‐based economy, intangible assets may be an important driver of firm performance and stock returns. We introduce an intangibles intensity factor (INT), distinct from the organization capital factor, and show that exposure to this factor strongly predicts stock returns, outperforming traditional factors.
