Habitability of Planets in Binaries

open access: yes, 2007
A survey of currently known extrasolar planets indicates that close to 20% of their hosting stars are members of binary systems. While the majority of these binaries are wide (i.e., with separations between 250 and 6500 AU), the detection of Jovian-type planets in the three binaries of Gamma Cephei (separation of 18.5 AU), GL 86 (separation of 21 AU ...

Encouraging native predators of invasive yellow‐legged hornets: breeding habitat preferences of European honey buzzards in exotic Eucalyptus plantations

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Our study revealed a positive relationship between the structural complexity of forest plantations and their capacity to deliver regulating ecosystem services. The likelihood of occurrence and the density of breeding pairs of European honey buzzards increased in proportion to the structural complexity of Eucalyptus forest plantations: large trees ...

What can philosophy contribute to ‘education to address pornography's influence’?

open access: yesJournal of Philosophy of Education, Volume 56, Issue 5, Page 774-786, October 2022., 2022
Abstract Responses to the pernicious influences of mainstream pornography on its viewers fall into two main sorts: regulation and education. Pornography has long been a core topic in analytic feminist philosophy, but it has largely focused on issues around regulation, in particular with trying to undermine arguments against regulation on the grounds ...

Analysis of the complex role of trees in street canyons using a large‐eddy simulation model

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Our large‐eddy simulations with high spatial resolution (down to 1 m) show a significant improvement in thermal comfort in shaded areas beneath trees during the hottest part of the day and just after sunset. However, they also highlight a drawback: in narrower streets, PM10$$ {\mathrm{PM}}_{10} $$ concentrations more than doubled compared with areas ...

Illuminating the Arctic: Unveiling seabird responses to artificial light during polar darkness through citizen science and remote sensing

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Artificial light at night (ALAN) has global impacts on animals, yet its effects in polar regions remain underexplored. In this study, we analyzed a decade of citizen science data on seabird occurrences in Longyearbyen, using remote sensing data to assess the impact of ALAN during the polar night.

The untapped potential of camera traps for farmland biodiversity monitoring: current practice and outstanding agroecological questions

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Through a systematic literature review, we show that camera traps (CTs) have been underutilised for farmland biodiversity monitoring. The few existing farmland‐based CT studies focused on local‐level management issues, such as disease transmission between wildlife and livestock, crop damage and use of artificial feeders and water troughs by wildlife ...
