Artificial light at night (ALAN) has global impacts on animals, yet its effects in polar regions remain underexplored. In this study, we analyzed a decade of citizen science data on seabird occurrences in Longyearbyen, using remote sensing data to assess the impact of ALAN during the polar night.

Update on the German and Australasian Optical Ground Station Networks
ABSTRACT Networks of ground stations designed to transmit and receive at visible and infra‐red wavelengths through the atmosphere offer an opportunity to provide on‐demand, high‐bandwidth, secure communications with spacecraft in Earth orbit and beyond. This work describes the operation and activities of current free space optical communications (FSOC)

Abstract Quantitative real‐time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) is a method widely used to determine changes and differences in gene expression. As target gene expression is most often quantified relative to the expression of reference genes, the validation of suitable reference genes is of critical importance.

ABSTRACT Climate change exacerbates fragility and security risks; however, the intersectional vulnerabilities arising from climate and conflict in fragile regions remain insufficiently studied, particularly from local perspectives. While development practices have increasingly shifted towards capacity‐building approaches, traditional aid distribution ...

Space Economy and Sustainability: A Systematic Review
ABSTRACT The space economy is booming thanks to the increasing investment of government agencies, private companies, and venture capitalists. From the beginning of the New Space era, the array of actors involved in the development of technologies for extra‐terrestrial activities has increased, as well as the downstream applications that foster ...

Abstract Beaked whale foraging pulses were detected on the Pacific Missile Range Facility (PMRF) off Kauaʻi, Hawaiʻi, via long term passive acoustic monitoring. The unidentified pulses do not match foraging pulses of known species on the range but are similar to the unidentified beaked whale first detected at Cross Seamount, Hawaiʻi. Although there has

Science Triggers and Situational Interest in Everyday Family Life
ABSTRACT Interest in science is critical for science learning. The family plays a major role in supporting the development of children's interest in science by eliciting and fostering interest and engagement with science content and practice. This study characterizes triggers for interest in science in everyday family life and measures the duration of ...
