A global synthesis of the small-island effect in habitat islands [PDF]
Habitat loss and fragmentation are considered to be the leading drivers of biodiversity loss. The small-island effect (SIE) can be used to predict species extinctions resulting from habitat loss and has important implications for species conservation. However, to date, no study has explicitly evaluated the prevalence of SIEs in habitat islands.

Full Current Statistics in the Regime of Weak Coulomb Interaction [PDF]
We evaluate the full statistics of the current via a Coulomb island that is strongly coupled to the leads. This strong coupling weakens Coulomb interaction.

Investigating the relationship between individual differences and island sensitivity
It is well-attested that native speakers tend to give low acceptability ratings to sentences that involve movement from within islands, yet the source of island effects remains an active debate.

Effect of the curvature and the {\beta} parameter on the nonlinear dynamics of a drift tearing magnetic island [PDF]
We present numerical simulation studies of 2D reduced MHD equations investigating the impact of the electronic \beta parameter and of curvature effects on the nonlinear evolution of drift tearing islands. We observe a bifurcation phenomenon that leads to

Assessment of Urban Water-Energy Interactions and Heat Island Signatures in Rhode Island
Rhode Island is the smallest and the second-most densely populated state in the USA. It is also one of the most severely affected states on the Eastern Seaboard due to Climate Change.

Spanish embedded question island effects revisited: an experimental study
It is often reported that embedded questions (EQs) are not syntactic islands in Spanish. However, some authors have observed that the acceptability of filler-gap dependencies (FGDs) into Spanish EQs varies with the EQ-embedding verb: FGDs into EQs under ...

An experimental investigation of wh-dependencies in four island types in Romanian
This paper gauges the acceptability of wh-extraction from four island types in Romanian, an understudied language in this respect. Linguistic theories predict wh-dependencies to be unacceptable when the gap is located inside adjuncts, complex NPs ...

Precipitation is a critical factor affecting regional water cycles, water ecology, and socioeconomic development. Monthly precipitation, water vapor pressure, and temperature datasets from 613 meteorological stations across China were used to analyze the

Shear Alfven wave continuous spectrum within magnetic islands
The radial structure of the continuous spectrum of shear Alfven waves is calculated in this paper within the separatrix of a magnetic island. Geometrical effects due to the noncircularity of the flux surface's cross section are retained to all orders. On

Replication is an important aspect of experimental research and it is therefore crucial that participant-level measures (e.g., judgment scores) are reliable.
