Spraying drones: efficacy of integrating an avian repellent with drone hazing to elicit blackbird flock dispersal and abandonment of sunflower fields

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Multiple management strategies exist to combat bird damage to agriculture. We explored combining two tools, drones as frightening devices and an avian repellent, to assess effectiveness of an integrated method to deter large flocks on complex landscapes. We evaluated the ability of a spraying drone (DJI Agras MG‐1P) deploying Avian Control (i.e. active

Correlation Between Evaporation Dynamics and Self‐Healing Characteristics in Metallised Polypropylene Films

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The morphology and structure of electrodes play a pivotal role in determining the self‐healing performance and current‐carrying capacity of metallised biaxially oriented polypropylene (BOPP) films. An experimental setup replicating the industrial vacuum evaporation process and a custom‐designed self‐healing testing platform were specifically ...

Scattering from `Babinet' particles (or not…): spherical particles made up of spheres and spherical particles with spherical voids

open access: yesJournal of Applied Crystallography, EarlyView.
Small‐angle scattering form factors of composite particles built from either embedded spheres or randomly distributed voids within a sphere are obtained by Monte Carlo simulations, and analytical expressions that reproduce the simulations are derived.The small‐angle scattering form factors of two classes of composite particles with contrasting internal

Sociology and The Complexity of What Is Missing

open access: yesThe British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT What is ‘missed’ by sociological literature underpinned by assumptions of presence that a missing approach can rectify? I appropriate a metaphysics of presence and an alternative focus on what is missing as ontological foci to revisit complexity studies in sociology.

What can lithics tell us about food production during the transition to farming? Exploring harvesting practices and cultural changes during the neolithic in Southwest Asia: a view from Qminas (north‐western Syria)

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines the continuity and change in harvesting practices between the Late Pre‐Pottery Neolithic B (LPPNB) and the Early Pottery Neolithic at Qminas, north‐western Levant, through a traceological analysis of flint sickles. By combining qualitative traceological analysis with quantitative functional approaches, we demonstrate that ...
