Temporal, species‐specific variation in activity patterns of bats (Chiroptera) along a boreal river basin in Västerbotten, Sweden

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Seasonal variation in photoperiods, energetic demands, and reproductive constraints are expected to strongly influence bat activity at high latitudes, yet empirical evidence from boreal systems is limited. We used passive acoustic monitoring to examine spatial, temporal, and feeding activity patterns of bats along a boreal river basin in Sweden (64°N ...

APTNet: A Condition‐Sensitive Modulation Framework for Surface Pressure Prediction on Supersonic Aircraft

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Accurate surface‐pressure prediction over broad operating envelopes is critical for supersonic aerodynamic analysis and design. To overcome the bottlenecks of traditional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) in real‐time performance and computational efficiency, data‐driven deep learning methods have emerged. However, existing data‐driven models

Investigating Dynamic Characteristics of Cavitation in Insulating Oil Microgaps Under Vibration: Theoretical Analysis and Experimental Observation

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The internal pressure fluctuations caused by vibration in oil‐immersed electrical equipment can initiate bubbles within narrow oil gaps, reducing the electrical strength of equipment and giving rise to the problem of abnormal gas production in oil‐immersed equipment.

Understanding mammal avoidance of human settlements

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Terrestrial mammals often avoid human settlements, but is this a result of human activity around buildings or the built infrastructure per se? Using data on animal movement before and during the COVID‐19 lockdowns, this paper disentangles these effects, showing how changes in human mobility affect animals' avoidance of buildings. Abstract Anthropogenic

Discrete sound induced by low Mach number flow over side branch deep cavity in a rectangular duct

Archives of Acoustics, 2014
This paper presents a model of the discrete sound induction effect due to a flow over a deep cavity in the wall of a rectangular duct. Theoretical analysis applies shear layer approximation with a vortex sheet, with deflection satisfying the Kutta ...

Plant Variety Registration in Transition: Opportunities for Innovation and Reform in The European Union Enregistrement des variétés végétales en transition : opportunités d’innovation et de réforme dans l’Union européenne Die Registrierung von Pflanzensorten im Wandel: Chancen für Innovation und Neugestaltung in der Europäischen Union

EuroChoices, EarlyView.
Summary Modernising the European Union’s plant variety registration system is critical to enabling the development and adoption of sustainable, climate‐resilient varieties aligned with the EU Farm‐to‐Fork Strategy. However, the current system is outdated and under increasing pressure. While legislative reform is underway, key points of divergence among

Comparative Efficiency of eDNA, Camera Traps and Scat Surveys to Detect a Semi‐Aquatic Mammal Across Multiple Catchments

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Monitoring semi‐aquatic mammals is essential for their conservation, but it is made difficult by their elusive lifestyle and generally low abundance. Eurasian otter (Lutra lutra) monitoring has traditionally relied on scat surveys, but eDNA and camera‐trapping are emerging as promising alternatives.

Weaponry Investment in the Socially Monogamous Snapping Shrimp Alpheus brasileiro (Decapoda: Alpheidae)

Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Weapons are morphological structures used by animals in various contexts, especially in intra‐specific contests and visual displays. In snapping shrimps of the genus Alpheus, particularly the monogamous species Alpheus brasileiro, both sexes bear enlarged chelipeds, potentially conferring advantages in mate competition or territorial defence ...

The relation of spatial skills, spatial memory span, and two anxiety types with statistics anxiety in European and North American University students

British Journal of Educational Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background & Aims The present two studies investigated the role of spatial cognition in statistics anxiety. The hypothesis that spatial representations and/or visuospatial skills are related to the acquisition of statistics abilities which, when lacking or unused, generate statistics anxiety is examined.
