FireWatch: G.i.S. -assisted wireless sensor networks for forest fires [PDF]
, 2012 Traditional satellite and camera-based systems, are currently the predominant methods for detecting forest fires. Our study has identified that these systems lack immediacy as detected fires must gain some momentum before they are detected.

Promoting engagement in embryology through gamified student‐developed small group sessions
Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.Abstract Learning embryology is often challenging for students as it requires conceptualizing morphological changes to embryologic structures across time. To further complicate the process, while some structures transition to permanent structures, others disappear or degenerate.

The 3‐Hit Metabolic Signaling Model for Autism Spectrum Disorder: A Summary
Autism Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a highly heritable yet environmentally sensitive neurodevelopmental condition whose biological heterogeneity has resisted a unifying causal explanation for over 100 years. The 3‐hit metabolic signaling model proposes that ASD arises from abnormal persistence of an evolutionarily conserved stress‐response ...

The impacts of biological invasions
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Forest owners’ collective action against the risk of forest fire: a game theoretical approach [PDF]
This paper is a follow up on a earlier one (Mendes, 1998) where I proposed a series of models for forest owners associations represented as organisation made up of two groups of strategically interacting players: the forest owners who are members of the ...
