Unimodular hunting

Algebraic Geometry
We develop a method initiated by Bacher and Venkov, and based on a study of the Kneser neighbors of the standard lattice Z^n, which allows to classify the integral unimodular Euclidean lattices of rank n. As an application, of computational flavour, we determine the isometry classes of unimodular lattices of rank 26 and 27.

Neo-colonialism and greed: Africans’ views on trophy hunting in social media

Journal of Sustainable Tourism, 2019
Existing studies on the trophy hunting controversy in recent years have largely represented the anti-hunting views of the Western public, while overlooking the opinions of African people.

A light‐triggered Time‐Resolved X‐ray Solution Scattering (TR‐XSS) workflow with application to protein conformational dynamics

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Time‐resolved X‐ray solution scattering captures how proteins change shape in real time under near‐native conditions. This article presents a practical workflow for light‐triggered TR‐XSS experiments, from data collection to structural refinement. Using a calcium‐transporting membrane protein as an example, the approach can be broadly applied to study ...

Drivers of spatio-temporal population dynamics of game species in a mountain landscape

Scientific Reports
Since the end of the nineteenth century, socio-economic changes have greatly altered the Central European landscape and the structural and functional quality of habitats.

Microplastics in Greylag Goose (Anser anser) Feces from Lake Erçek (Eastern Anatolia, Türkiye): Occurrence, Temporal Variation, and Polymer Characterization

Toxics
Background: Microplastics (MPs; 300 µm; ~20%) was polymer-confirmed by FT-IR, and particle surfaces were examined by SEM–EDX. Results: In total, 959 suspected MP items were recovered, corresponding to an estimated 1.75–2.85 items per fecal deposit ...

Chameleon sequences reveal structural effects in proteins representing micelle‐like distribution of hydrophobicity

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Amino acids sequence of two different proteins with the same sequence (chameleon sequence—black boxes) represent in 3D structure of the proteins different secondary structures: HHHH—helical and BBB—Beta‐structural. The chains folded in water environment adopt different III‐order structures in which the chameleon fragments appear to adopt similar status

Large-scale lagovirus disease outbreaks in European brown hares (Lepus europaeus) in France caused by RHDV2 strains spatially shared with rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus)

Veterinary Research, 2017
Rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) is a lagovirus that causes rabbit haemorrhagic disease (RHD) in European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus). In 2010, a new genotype called RHDV2 emerged in France. It exhibits a larger host range than classical RHDV

Exon 7 splicing of ERα predicts poor prognosis and increases phenotypic heterogeneity in luminal a subtype breast cancer

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
ERα splice variant ERα∆7 lacks the C‐terminus, and its expression may change phenotypes of breast cancers. Our results showed that ERα∆7 is found in the luminal A subtype, and elevated ERα∆7 levels are linked to improved cell survival with lower proliferation and migration.

Debating Public Policy: Ethics, Politics and Economics of Wildlife Management in Southern Africa [PDF]

, 2019
Based on field research in Africa, this essay explores three claims: first, that sport hunting places economic value on wildlife and habitats; second, that this motivates conservation practices in the interest of sustaining revenue sources; and, third ...

A leader–follower formation control approach for target hunting by multiple autonomous underwater vehicle in three-dimensional underwater environments

International Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2019
As one of the challenging tasks of multiple autonomous underwater vehicles systems, the realization of target hunting is the great significance. The multiple autonomous underwater vehicle target hunting is studied in this article.
