How Much Does Fire Behavior of Leaf Litter Beds Change within Two Months?

open access: yesFire, 2019
Fire behavior is well-recognized as a function of fuel characteristics, but in practice the dynamics of fuels are often overlooked. Here we focus on short term changes in the fuel bed structure and fire behavior.

Detection of phase singularities with a Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor

open access: yes, 2006
While adaptive optical systems are able to remove moderate wavefront distortions in scintillated optical beams, phase singularities that appear in strongly scintillated beams can severely degrade the performance of such an adaptive optical system ...

Workflows and locations matter – insights from electronic hand hygiene monitoring into the use of hand rub dispensers across diverse hospital wards

open access: yesInfection Prevention in Practice
Summary: Background: While healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) affect approximately 3.2–6.5% of hospitalised patients in the US and Europe, improving hand hygiene (HH) could reduce HAI rates.
