The spread of non‐native species

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global redistribution of species through human agency is one of the defining ecological signatures of the Anthropocene, with biological invasions reshaping biodiversity patterns, ecosystem processes and services, and species interactions globally.

Some Gasdynamic Problems in the Flow of Condensing Vapors [PDF]

open access: yes, 1969
Some Gasdynamic Problems in the Flow of Condensing Vapors. The general problem of the flow of a wet vapor, with or without an inert diluent is formulated under the assumption that the liquid phase is finely divided and dispersed throughout the gaseous ...

A practical method for preparing Ca(OH)2 nanodispersions for the consolidation of archaeological calcareous stones [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Exposure to atmospheric conditions results in considerable deterioration of calcareous building stones, lime mortars and plasters in archaeological monuments, requiring several conservation treatments.

The impacts of biological invasions

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Liquid Marble Photosensor [PDF]

open access: yesChemPhysChem, 2019
AbstractA liquid marble is a liquid droplet coated by a hydrophobic powder. The liquid marble does not wet adjacent surfaces and therefore can be manipulated as a dry soft body. A Belousov‐Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction is an oscillatory chemical reaction exhibiting waves of oxidation. We demonstrate how to make a photo‐sensor from BZ medium liquid marbles.

The influence of rivers on seabird foraging ecology

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rivers act as vital arteries to the world's oceans, delivering fresh water and nutrients that sustain marine ecosystems. Globally, river flow increasingly is being altered by climate change and anthropogenic pressures; yet the significance of rivers to predatory marine species, such as seabirds, and the extent to which river‐related changes ...

“And Hence Have Been a Thousand Mistakes”: Marble or Alabaster? Resolving an Old Problem of Material Identification with Ultra-Portable Near-Infrared Spectroscopy

open access: yesHeritage
Gypsum alabaster as material for European sculpture emerged in the 12th century and soon rivalled marble due to its accessibility, ease of sculpting, and aesthetic qualities.

Response of a nozzle to an entropy disturbance example of thermodynamically unsteady aerodynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 1975
The larger number of problems that qualify as unsteady aerodynamics relate to non-uniform motion of surfaces -- such as pitching of airfoils -- or the correspondingly non-uniform motion of a fluid about a surface -- such as a gust passing over an ...

The Strategic Role of Waste Inventories in Industrial Symbiosis: A Simulation‐Based Perspective on Performance and Resilience of Industrial Symbiosis Networks

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ensuring the resilience of industrial symbiosis networks (ISNs) has emerged as a key concern in the literature. However, existing studies focus on network‐level strategies, neglecting the potential benefits derived from strengthening the links between symbiotic partners.

Comparative assessment of the acoustic activity and the Pressure Stimulated Voltage in marble specimens under compression

open access: yesFracture and Structural Integrity
The temporal evolution of the electric activity generated in marble specimens under uniaxial compression is analyzed and quantified in terms of the Pressure Stimulated Voltage (Electric Potential) developed.
