Reducing bias in shorebird nest survival rates across a large Arctic landscape

open access: yesIbis, Volume 168, Issue 1, Page 25-41, January 2026.
Reproductive success is a key demographic parameter that can have profound impacts on a species' population trend. Indeed, poor reproductive success has been suggested as a contributing factor to the declines observed in many species of birds, including Arctic‐breeding shorebirds.

Calculation Method of Transmission System Time Between Overhaul with Considering Running Time

open access: yesJixie chuandong, 2019
By establishing the mathematical model of helicopter transmission system running time and flight time, engine working time, the time ratio relation between running time and flight time is deduced, that is, conversion coefficient.

Helicopter anti-torque system using fuselage strakes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
The improvement of the helicopter torque control system is discussed. At low to medium forward speeds helicopter performance is limited by the effectiveness of the means for counteracting main rotor torque and controlling sideslip airloads.

Horizontal Anisotropy of Turbulent Fluctuations in Surface and Air Temperatures Over a Flat, Homogeneous Surface

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 130, Issue 24, 28 December 2025.
Abstract Longitudinal Lx $\left({L}_{x}\right)$ and lateral Ly $\left({L}_{y}\right)$ integral length scales describe the characteristic horizontal structure of energy‐containing turbulent structures in a flow. The ratio Lx/Ly ${L}_{x}/{L}_{y}$ describes the anisotropy of the structures where Lx/Ly>1 ${L}_{x}/{L}_{y} > 1$ indicates structures elongated

Tracking habitat use of migratory birds in a human‐dominated stopover site using deep learning and acoustic indices

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Bird migration is a fascinating behavioral phenomenon on earth, with annual movements along migratory routes forming complex migration networks. Stopovers, which serve as fuel stations for migratory birds, are critical to the success of long‐distance migrations.

Rescue epilepsy medication and training: A comparison between midazolam use, guidelines, clinical practice, and possibilities in the UK and Norway

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, Volume 10, Issue 6, Page 1824-1834, December 2025.
Abstract Objectives Status epilepticus (SE) is a prolonged epileptic seizure carrying significant risk of long‐term disability and death. Rescue therapies are prescribed for prehospital administration to terminate SE. This study compared prescribing practices of rescue therapies of midazolam in the UK and Norway.
