Thermal Transport Properties of W2TMB2 Solid Solutions (TM = Fe, Co, Ni)

open access: yesZeitschrift für anorganische und allgemeine Chemie, EarlyView.
Thermal transport properties of W2TMB2 (TM: Fe, Co, Ni) and their solid solutions, as well as electron backscatter diffraction measurements, show interesting particularities depending on the TM type and content. In this work, thermal transport properties of W2FexCo1‐xB2, W2FexNi1-xCoB2, and W2NixCo1‐xB2 (x: 0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0) were ...

Trade‐offs across life history stages and social association types shape winter communal roosting in a long‐lived raptor

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Our study demonstrates how life history trade‐offs and pair bonds influence winter roosting in red kites. Analysing long‐term GPS data from 216 individuals, we reveal marked behavioural plasticity in communal roosting: young, non‐breeding males are most likely to join communal roosts, whereas breeding pairs predominantly roost together near their ...
