Synergistic Effect of Ambient Ozone, Relative Humidity, and Temperature on Epidemic Patterns of Influenza: A Hypothesis and Its Verification

Microbiology and Immunology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The mechanisms underlying seasonal patterns in influenza epidemics have long been an enigma. Our laboratory study revealed that ambient ozone significantly inactivates airborne influenza viruses synergistically with higher relative humidity and temperature.

Why don't all birds lay early? Causes and consequences of breeding timing for a long‐lived migratory seabird

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Why don't all birds lay early? Our 16‐year study of Manx shearwater behaviour shows that selection on breeding timing fluctuates among years. We also find that lay dates are influenced by persistent individual differences, variation in non‐breeding duration, and pair synchrony, potentially constraining breeding phenological advancement under ongoing ...

There Is no First Phase of the Jespersen Cycle1

Transactions of the Philological Society, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper challenges the traditional conception of the Jespersen Cycle by arguing that no ‘pure’ first phase of the cycle exists where a single negator operates without reinforcement. Drawing on historical data from Northern Italian dialects (Piedmontese, Lombard, Emilian), we demonstrate that emphatic negative structures systematically co ...

Post‐Breach Events, Itemisation and the Avoided Loss Rule

The Modern Law Review, EarlyView.
In English law, the following equation is used to compute damages awards: (a) loss sustained in consequence of the breach of duty (‘prima facie loss’) minus (b) benefits obtained as a result of the breach of duty = (c) net loss. This paper explores the manner in which prima facie loss is defined.

Benjamin Robins's New Principles of Gunnery and the Response From the British Mathematical, Educational, and Military World of the Mid‐Eighteenth Century

Journal for Eighteenth-Century Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract This article analyses to what degree Benjamin Robins's discoveries in his book New Principles of Gunnery, 1742, affected the British mathematical, military, and educational world of the mid‐eighteenth century. While it drew praise and critique from Europe, especially from the notable mathematician Leonhard Euler, his mathematical theories were
