Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.We investigated how three rodent species respond to the seasonal availability of Araucaria angustifolia seeds. While Oligoryzomys spp. increased seed consumption and abundance during seed production, the more insectivorous Akodon paranaensis maintained a broader diet.

Scour, Local and Critical Velocities at the Abutments on Plain Rivers
Local flow modification near engineering structures such as – local velocity, flow separation, circulation, vortex structures, and increased turbulence, leads to local scour near foundations.

Propagation modes of 3D scour below a submarine pipeline in oblique steady currents and waves
, 2016 This paper presents experimental results on 3D scour propagation along a pipeline under oblique-incidence currents and waves. Different modes of 3D scour propagation were discovered after the local scour was initiated below the pipeline.

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Basalt‐dwelling blind mole rats maintain lower body temperatures, show greater post‐digging thermal increases, and dig more efficiently than those from rendzina soils. Although metabolic rates and bite force did not differ between populations, these thermal and physiological shifts align with the greater mechanical resistance and seasonal hypoxia of ...

Spatial Patterns of Avian Stable Isotopes Reveal Ecological Impacts of Climate and Land‐Use Change
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Increased feather δ15N values with pasture coverage reveal an elevated baseline δ15N in grazing landscapes, while broader isotopic niches in farmland habitats reflect agricultural expansion's significant influence on resource use patterns of the avian community.

Local Scour Development at Engineering Structures during Multiple Floods
Using the differential equation of equilibrium of the bed sediment movement in clear water, a method for calculating the scour development in time at engineering structures in river flow during floods has been elaborated.

Spectacle and Spy Stories: The 1954 Royal Commission on Espionage
Australian Journal of Politics &History, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Menzies government's 1954 royal commission, established to investigate Soviet espionage in Australia, is well known as the backdrop to the Labor Party split. It saw opposition leader H.V. Evatt's demise and ushered in an almost 20‐year period of Liberal Party governance.

Riverbed Layering Impact on Scour at the Abutments
The damage of the engineering structures caused by scour leads to considerable economical and envi-ronmental losses. The local flow modification and its changes in time during the floods, as well as local geological conditions, as riverbed layering, type

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Wide‐Awake Local Anaesthesia No Tourniquet (WALANT) is increasingly being used by hand surgeons. This systematic scoping review aims to identify and collate existing evidence on the reported implementation outcomes, barriers, facilitators and implementation strategies relevant to WALANT in hand surgery practice. Methods A systematic
