Climate‐driven resource availability drives medium‐ and broad‐scale temporal changes in owl–prey interactions over 24 years in a semi‐arid ecosystem

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Predator–prey interactions are vital to ecosystem functioning but may be disrupted by climate change. We investigated a food‐web network involving three owl species over 24 years in a semi‐arid ecosystem at Bosque Fray Jorge National Park, Chile.

Dispersion of Love wave in an isotropic layer sandwiched between orthotropic and prestressed inhomogeneous half-spaces

open access: yesLatin American Journal of Solids and Structures
An in-depth study has been carried out for the dispersion of Love waves in an isotropic elastic layer sandwiched between orthotropic and prestressed inhomogeneous elastic half-spaces.

Harnessing Diversity: Majority‐Group Acculturation Predicts Creativity and Flourishing Over Time

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Social Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Creativity and flourishing are core aims of higher education (HE) institutions and government initiatives globally. Large‐scale projects have linked creativity and flourishing with cultural diversity, yet their associations with majority‐group acculturation (i.e., how members of dominant culture groups adopt minority‐cultural elements and/or ...

Closed-form solutions for Love-wave propagation and excitation in orthotropic layered half-spaces

open access: yesVietnam Journal of Mechanics
Love waves are horizontally polarized shear waves guided by a surface layer and are highly sensitive to near-surface properties. While their behavior in isotropic media is well established, closed-form solutions for orthotropic layered structures under ...

Anisotropy Gradients in the Middle of the Ross Sea Embayment, West Antarctica: Evidence From QL Scattered Surface Waves

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2021
Long‐period quasi‐Love (QL) waves in West Antarctica were detected using the band‐pass filtering. Rayleigh waves from March 11, 2011 Tohoku Mw 9.1 earthquake and March 9, 2011 Tohoku Mw 7.3 earthquake had evident QL waves in the frequency range of 7–13 ...

Creativity and its link to epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Creative thinking represents one of our highest‐order cognitive processes, involving multiple cortical structures and an intricate interplay between several cortical and subcortical networks. It results in novel ideas that translate to useful products or concepts. The evolutionary purpose of creativity is therefore apparent, as it advances our

Quiet activism as feminist practice

open access: yesFeminist Anthropology, EarlyView.
Abstract In this article, we discuss how women combat silencing in the face of violence and increased political turmoil through quiet activism in their day‐to‐day lives. Centering lengthy conversations with Arab women across London and notes from an ongoing collaboration with a feminist activist based in the US, we examine how wearable rhetorical ...

Acoustic whispering-gallery modes in optomechanical shells

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2012
We numerically calculate the forms and frequencies of mechanical whispering-gallery modes in silica shells. Such modes were recently experimentally observed in water-filled optomechanical resonators, which constitute a bridge between optomechanics and ...

Temperature Effects on the Propagation Characteristics of Love Waves along Multi-Guide Layers of Sio<sub>2</sub>/Su-8 on St-90°X Quartz

open access: yesSensors, 2012
Theoretical calculations have been performed on the temperature effects on the propagation characteristics of Love waves in layered structures by solving the coupled electromechanical field equations, and the optimal design parameters were extracted for ...

Enforced but not Enacted: How Return‐to‐Office Policies Reshape Boundary Enactment, Work‐Location Volition, and Eudaimonic Wellbeing

open access: yesHuman Resource Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT HR faces a conundrum over how to organize hybrid working patterns given the pros and cons associated with conducting work across multiple domains. Many organizations are currently seeking to clarify and often increase the requirements for employee presence at employer premises, meaning studies are needed to better understand how HR should look
