Filomicelle‐Embedded Composite Hydrogels for Localized Gelation Within the Anterior Chamber of the Eye

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
A composite hydrogel (C‐gel) incorporating PEG‐b‐PPS filomicelles enables localized in situ gelation and sustained nanocarrier release within the anterior chamber. The filamentous structure promotes spatial confinement of multi‐arm polymer crosslinking, even upon injection into large aqueous volumes, and gradually transitions into spherical micelles ...

Erving Goffman at 100: A Chameleon Seen as a Rorschach Test within a Kaleidoscope

open access: yesSymbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
The 100th anniversary of Erving Goffman's birth was in 2022. Drawing on his work, the Goffman archives, the secondary literature, and personal experiences with him and those in his university of Chicago cohort, I reflect on some implications of his work and life, and the inseparable issues of understanding society.

Unraveling the impact of dog‐friendly spaces on urban–wildland pumas and other wildlife

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
As the most widespread large carnivore on the planet, domestic dogs Canis lupus familiaris can pose a major threat to wildlife, even within protected areas (PAs). Growing human presence in PAs, coupled with increasing pet dog ownership underscores the urgency to understand the influence of dogs on wildlife activity and health.

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

Hybrid Active–Passive Control of an Unconventional Smart Window Based on Dye‐Doped Dual‐Frequency Liquid Crystal

open access: yesAdvanced Photonics Research
The allure of dual‐frequency liquid crystal (DFLC) stems from its unique feature of the switchable and revertible sign of dielectric anisotropy. In addition to the common frequency‐modulation method, this study focuses on manipulating the dielectric ...

Strengthening urban deer management with structured decision making

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Urban deer management (UDM) decision‐makers face social, ecological, regulatory, and economic pressures when creating an agreeable deer management plan for stakeholders. Historically, decision making techniques (e.g. consensus‐based analyses) have not effectively balanced UDM elements leading to short‐lived management progress.

Optimising Wave Energy Plant Location Through Neutrosophic Multi‐Criteria Group Decision‐Making

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global shift towards sustainable energy has intensified research into renewable sources, particularly wave energy. Pakistan, with its long coastline, holds significant potential for wave energy development. However, identifying optimal locations for wave energy plants involves evaluating complex, multi‐faceted criteria.

Vog: Using Volcanic Eruptions to Estimate the Health Costs of Particulates

open access: yesThe Economic Journal, EarlyView., 2018
The negative consequences of long‐term exposure to particulate pollution are well established but a number of studies find no effect of short‐term exposure on health outcomes. The high correlation of industrial pollutants complicates the estimation of the impact of individual pollutants on health.
