A process‐based social‐ecological systems framework for studying the effects of human recreation on wildlife

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding the effects of human recreation on wildlife is fundamental for effective management and coexistence, where natural landscapes increasingly serve a dual purpose: protecting biodiversity while providing recreational opportunities. Social‐ecological systems frameworks, which acknowledge the reciprocal links between people and nature,

Embodied urban design: Fostering nature connectedness for pro‐conservation behaviour

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Those who feel more connected with nature are more likely to act in ways that support biodiversity. How connected people feel with nature depends in part on how meaningfully it figures into their experience of the built environment. Despite an increase in urban greening measures, these approaches often overlook how people perceive, interact ...

When invasions go unnoticed: Public perception of the freshwater jellyfish Craspedacusta sowerbii in Europe

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Biological invasions are a major driver of biodiversity loss, yet inconspicuous or “cryptic” species often escape detection and public awareness, limiting management responses. We investigated the freshwater jellyfish Craspedacusta sowerbii, likely native to China and now present on six continents, through a 22‐month multilingual online survey

In the Line of Sight

Leonardo, 2010
In the Line of Sight is a light installation that uses 100 computer-controlled tactical flashlights to project low-resolution video footage of suspicious human motion into the exhibition space. Each flashlight projects a light spot on the wall. All flashlights combined create a ten-by-ten matrix representation of the source footage, featured on a video

Line-of-Sight Networks

Combinatorics, Probability and Computing, 2009
Random geometric graphs have been one of the fundamental models for reasoning about wireless networks: one places n points at random in a region of the plane (typically a square or circle), and then connects pairs of points by an edge if they are within a fixed distance of one another.

Line of Sight in Hominoids

Journal of Clinical Pediatric Dentistry, 2016
Objectives: It remains unclear how the realignments of the face and basicranium that characterize humans were acquired, both phylogenetically and ontogenetically. The developmentally constrained nature of the skull has been previously demonstrated in other primates using Donald H. Enlow's mammalian craniofacial architectural relationships.

Preferred line of sight angle

Ergonomics, 1986
Abstract Recent experiments with 16 male and 16 female subjects indicated that they like to look down rather steeply at an average of −29° below horizontal, s.d. 11·6°, when sitting with trunk and head upright. This angle is steeper when the visual target is at 0·50 m distance (−33°±11·3°) but flatter when the target is at 1·00 m (−24° ± 10·4°).

Line of Sight Propagation

2011
In line-of-sight (LOS) radiocommunications, the main route is the direct path between the transmitter and receiver considering the curvature of radiowave trajectory. In Chap. 2, we discussed the general phenomena such as free-space loss (FSL) , gas and vapor loss, Fresnel radius, K-factor, and other mechanisms such as diffraction, reflection, and ...

Line of Sight

2023
Perspective, color and rhythm are the basic elements I lend to create my abstract aesthetic form. I seek subject matter that is both of the aesthetic and of the world. Spontaneity is achieved through the collage technique I have adopted. This technique uses magazine color fields and textures out of context to create contemporary image fragments into ...
