Concrete in architecture: Redefining form, space, function, and insights from bibliometric analysis

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Concrete has become a cornerstone in architectural and engineering innovation, as it seamlessly integrates structural performance with artistic expression. Its evolution from ancient opus caementicium to contemporary ultra‐high‐performance concrete illustrates its adaptability to the change in technological, environmental, and design paradigms.

A framework for the ethical use of animal‐borne devices in post‐release monitoring following rehabilitation

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Rehabilitation and release contribute to conservation efforts for threatened species. Ensuring that these efforts are effective requires a good understanding of the factors which determine survival and integration of released animals into wild populations.

Global Warming and Mass Extinctions Associated With Large Igneous Province Volcanism

open access: yesGeophysical Monograph Series, Page 83-102., 2021

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact

An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Knockdown resistance in pyrethroid-resistant horn fly (Diptera: Muscidae) populations in Brazil Resistência Knockdown em populações de mosca-dos-chifres do Brasil resistentes aos piretróides

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária, 2009
To investigate the kdr (knockdown resistance) resistance-associated gene mutation and determine its frequency in pyrethroid-resistant horn fly (Haematobia irritans) populations, a total of 1,804 horn flies of 37 different populations from all Brazilian ...

Quantifying microhabitat selection of snowshoe hares using forest metrics from UAS‐based LiDAR

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Identifying the spatial and temporal scale at which animals select resources is critical for predicting how populations respond to changes in the environment. The spatial distribution of fine‐scale resources (e.g. patches of dense vegetation) are often linked with critical life‐history requirements such as denning and feeding sites.

The assembled transcriptome of the adult horn fly, Haematobia irritans

open access: yesData in Brief, 2018
The horn fly, Haematobia irritans irritans (Linnaeus, 1758; Diptera: Muscidae), a hematophagous external parasite of cattle, causes considerable economic losses to the livestock industry worldwide.

Convergent digestive adaptation to resource limitation in an insular lizard across a microgeographic archipelago

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Replicated mainland–islet populations of the Skyros wall lizard reveal consistent divergence in digestive physiology, including gut morphology, passage time, digestive efficiency and enzyme activity. These results show how ecological variation in resource availability can shape digestive performance across populations in insular environments.

Status of and future research on thermosensory processing

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2016
Thermosensation is critically important for survival of all animals. In the cockroach Periplaneta americana, thermoreceptor neurons on antennae and thermosensory interneurons in the antennal lobe have been characterized electrophysiologically, and recent

Vulgar Minimisers in English and Spanish1

open access: yesTransactions of the Philological Society, EarlyView.
Abstract In this paper, we investigated whether vulgar minimisers form a natural class in English and Spanish by evaluating (i) their similarities and differences with respect to non‐vulgar minimisers and (ii) whether vulgar minimisers are inherently negative in these languages.

Evaluation of Insecticide Ear Tags on Horn Flies in West Central Nebraska, 1993 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Y-Tex experimental ear tags (YT-615) were compared with PYthon® 10% ear tags for horn fly control on beef cattle. The study was initiated 17 Jun at the West Central Research and Extension Center, North Platte, NE.
