Ecological corridors in spatial planning: lessons from over 10 years of contract-based experiences in the French Alps [PDF]
Ten years after the introduction of laws resulting from a national consultative process (Grenelle de l'Environnement) in which ecological connectivity was strongly promoted, what can we say about the creation of “corridors” as a new element in spatial ...

Low phase noise THz generation from a fiber-referenced Kerr microresonator soliton comb
Low phase-noise THz wave generation is in high demand for applications such as wireless communications and radars. Here, the authors generate low-noise THz waves via photodetection of the carrier of a Kerr frequency comb, which is repetition-rate ...
