The impact of zoo education programmes on connection to nature considering programme type, participants' demographics and their initial connection

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Participants in environmental education programmes can have different preexisting attitudes and experiences that could influence the educational outcomes. The present study focuses on zoo education and its goal of connecting people to nature.

Respiratory profile of pediatric patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation studied by oscillometry – A TRANSPIRE cohort

open access: yesPediatric Investigation, EarlyView.
These are results from a multi‐center collaboration between four large pediatric institutions, investigating baseline respiratory system function in a cohort of children undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. This manuscript proposes respiratory oscillometry as a novel way to prospectively follow lung function in these children.

Evaluating the Reliability, Structure, and Measurement Invariance of the Panorama Student Survey in Middle School

open access: yesPsychology in the Schools, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Student perception surveys are increasingly used to inform school improvement efforts, yet evidence regarding their psychometric properties remains limited in many applied contexts. The present study examined the reliability, temporal stability, and measurement structure of the Panorama Student Survey in a large sample of middle school ...

Repeated Pleistocene Permafrost Episodes in the Western Pannonian Basin

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Concerning the study of past periglacial processes, the Pannonian Basin is a key area as it contains the southernmost frost polygons found in Central Europe. The presence or absence of permafrost is still, however, a matter of debate, and data on the timing of frost action are also scarce.

Building capacity in vector‐borne plant virus research: The CONNECTED Network

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Plant viruses spread by insects decimate crop yields globally, causing food security challenges in vulnerable areas, including regions of Africa. Interdisciplinary research is needed to protect future crop supplies. CONNECTED, the Community Network for African Vector‐Borne Plant Viruses, increased research capacity in Central, East, West and Southern ...

The Educational Policy of Julian the Apostate

open access: yesActa Classica Universitatis Scientiarum Debreceniensis
Julian the Apostate, the last pagan ruler of the Roman Empire has left a rich correspondence, the content of which is extremely varied. The epistles, most of which are authentic, form a separate volume in the editions and can be divided into four groups.

Ensemble reliability and the signal‐to‐noise paradox in ECMWF subseasonal forecasts

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We derive a general expression for the ratio of predictable components (RPC) in terms of correlation, spread–error ratio, and total variance ratio. Physical constraints on the admissible solutions (i.e., real‐valued and non‐negative variances) provide a mechanism to identify statistically paradoxical sample combinations of reliability and correlation ...

Validation of a Particle Image Velocimetry Algorithm Through Comparative Field and Laboratory Analysis

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Flow velocity measurement is fundamental to hydrological and hydraulic studies, providing essential data for streamflow estimation and river dynamics analysis. Traditional in situ methods like propeller gauges and acoustic Doppler current profilers are accurate but intrusive and labour‐intensive, while non‐intrusive image processing methods ...

Tracking Wintertime Behaviour of Emperor Penguins Using High‐Resolution Synthetic Aperture Radar Imagery

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Using 25–30 cm Umbra synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imagery combined with ground validation of our observations, we introduce a method to track the phenology of emperor penguins during the Antarctic winter. We successfully identified events in the breeding cycle, which were previously impossible to observe during the complete darkness of Antarctic ...
