Quaternary E-W Extension Uplifts Kythira Island and Segments the Hellenic Arc. [PDF]

open access: yesTectonics, 2022
Abstract Several crustal and lithospheric mechanisms lead to deformation and vertical motion of the upper plate during subduction, but their relative contribution is often enigmatic. Multiple areas of the Hellenic Forearc have been uplifting since Plio‐Quaternary times, yet spatiotemporal characteristics and sources of this uplift are poorly resolved ...

Geodynamic control on Pleistocene coral reef development: Insights from northwest Sumba Island (Indonesia)

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 48, Issue 13, Page 2536-2553, October 2023., 2023
A combined morphologic, stratigraphic, and reef modelling analysis of the coral reef terrace sequence on the NW Sumba coastline (Indonesia) reveals how geodynamic context can strongly affect morphodynamics and reef growth over relatively short distances.

A whole‐ecosystem method for experimentally suppressing ants on a small scale

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 4, Page 852-865, April 2022., 2022
Abstract Ant suppression experiments have emerged as a powerful method for assessing the role of ants in ecosystems. However, traditional methods have been limited to canopy ants, and not assessed the role of ants on and below ground. Recent advances have enabled whole‐ecosystem ant suppression in large plots, but large‐scale experiments are not always

Faster R‐CNN Algorithm for Detection of Plastic Garbage in the Ocean: A Case for Turtle Preservation

open access: yesMathematical Problems in Engineering, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Turtles are one of the ancient marine animals that live today. However, the population is threatened with extinction, so its existence needs to be protected and preserved because turtles often eat plastic waste in the ocean whose shape, texture, and color are similar to jellyfish.

An Empirical Study on the Effects of Using Kahoot as a Game‐Based Learning Tool on EFL Learners’ Vocabulary Recall and Retention

open access: yesEducation Research International, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Incorporating games into learning a foreign language is an effective strategy that can lower students’ stress and improve their learning. Thus, this study tried to examine the impacts of Kahoot as a game‐based learning tool on Iranian EFL learners’ vocabulary recall and retention.

Assessing the effects of oil palm replanting on arthropod biodiversity

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 58, Issue 1, Page 27-43, January 2021., 2021
Our findings indicate that total arthropod abundance is resilient to replanting of oil palm, but that replanting changes total arthropod and spider community composition and decreases spider abundance and species richness in some microhabitats. While it is somewhat encouraging from a management perspective that recommended replanting strategies ...

Energy and Economic Analysis of Curved, Straight, and Spiral Flow Flat‐Plate Solar Water Collector

open access: yesInternational Journal of Photoenergy, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
In this work, the solar water collector flow tube geometry is modified as curved and spiral to enhance the system’s performance. The investigation is carried out experimentally under the meteorological conditions of the Kovilpatti region (9°10 ′0 ″N, 77°52 ′0 ″E), Tamil Nadu, India.

Complexity within an oil palm monoculture: The effects of habitat variability and rainfall on adult dragonfly (Odonata) communities

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 52, Issue 2, Page 366-378, March 2020., 2020
Abstract Recent expansion of oil palm agriculture has resulted in loss of forest habitat and forest‐dependent species. However, large numbers of species—particularly insects—can persist within plantations. This study focuses on Odonata (dragonflies and damselflies): a charismatic indicator taxon and a potentially valuable pest control agent.
