Development of a strategy for calibrating the novel SiPM camera of the SST-1M telescope proposed for the Cherenkov Telescope Array [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
CTA will comprise a sub-array of up to 70 small size telescopes (SSTs) at the southern array. The SST-1M project, a 4 m-diameter Davies Cotton telescope with 9 degrees FoV and a 1296 pixels SiPM camera, is designed to meet the requirements of the next ...

Transient anhedonia phenotype and altered circadian timing of behaviour during night-time dim light exposure in Per3(-/-) mice, but not wildtype mice. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Industrialisation greatly increased human night-time exposure to artificial light, which in animal models is a known cause of depressive phenotypes.

Measuring Light Pollution with Fisheye Lens Imagery from A Moving Boat, A Proof of Concept [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Near all-sky imaging photometry was performed from a boat on the Gulf of Aqaba to measure the night sky brightness in a coastal environment. The boat was not anchored, and therefore drifted and rocked.

Effects of street lighting technologies on the success and quality of pollination in a nocturnally pollinated plant

open access: yesEcosphere, 2019
Artificial light at night (ALAN) is an increasingly important driver of global change. Lighting directly affects plants, but few studies have investigated indirect effects mediated by interacting organisms.

Measurement of night sky brightness in southern Australia

open access: yes, 2011
Night sky brightness is a major source of noise both for Cherenkov telescopes as well as for wide-angle Cherenkov detectors. Therefore, it is important to know the level of night sky brightness at potential sites for future experiments.

Coronatine Facilitates Pseudomonas syringae Infection of Arabidopsis Leaves at Night. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In many land plants, the stomatal pore opens during the day and closes during the night. Thus, periods of darkness could be effective in decreasing pathogen penetration into leaves through stomata, the primary sites for infection by many pathogens ...

Artificial light at night (ALAN) pollution alters bat lunar chronobiology: insights from broad-scale long-term acoustic monitoring

open access: yesEcological Processes
Background The timing of behavior and habitat use of nocturnal animals can be influenced by the lunar cycle in nature. The prevalence of artificial light at night (ALAN) has been recognized as a source of environmental pollution.

Advances in research on relationship between indoor artificial light at night and human health

open access: yes环境与职业医学
With the acceleration of global urbanization, the intensity and coverage of artificial light at night (ALAN) are increasing, and its service duration is obviously prolonged.

Does outdoor light contribute to ovarian cancer mortality? Insights from a case-control study

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Unfavorable light environments, including artificial light at night (ALAN) and ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation, may be linked to ovarian cancer, but this association remains uncertain.

Pistes méthodologiques pour prendre en compte la pollution lumineuse dans les réseaux écologiques

open access: yesVertigO, 2017
In response to habitat fragmentation, scientific literature recommends ecological networks, which are natural areas interconnected structurally and functionally.
