Under the cover of darkness: Foraging behaviour increases on cloudy, new moon nights in a pelagic seabird

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
While many visual predators feed exclusively during the day, others exploit foraging opportunities at night, although the efficiency with which they do so is strongly influenced by ambient light levels. We investigated the influence of variation in nocturnal light on the foraging behaviour of a small pelagic seabird, the European Storm‐petrel ...

Measuring the Stringency of Building Height Regulations

open access: yesInternational Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study proposes a novel methodology to measure the stringency of building height regulations. This measure gauges the difference in building heights with and without regulations. The primary challenge is to recover unobserved building heights in the absence of regulations.

Cryptic diversity and recent diversification in the Pyrrhulina australis species complex (Characiformes, Lebiasinidae) revealed by mitochondrial DNA

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Pyrrhulina australis Eigenmann & Kennedy, 1903, is widely distributed across the main hydrographic basins of South America. The taxonomic integrity of this species is nevertheless challenged by the lack of clear diagnostic characters, its marked geographic variation and the morphological overlap with its congeners. In this context, the present

First insights into oceanic manta ray movements in Japan using satellite telemetry

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Japanese waters represent the northern distributional limit of the western Pacific distribution of the oceanic manta ray (Mobula birostris), yet movement ecology in this region remains poorly understood. We report movements of the first satellite‐tagged individual in Japan.

Shark preferences: Only subtle effects of electromagnetic field exposure and substrate type on small‐spotted catshark (Scyliorhinus canicula) behaviour

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Offshore wind energy plays a crucial role in the transition to low‐carbon power generation. The expansion of offshore wind farms (OWFs) introduces anthropogenic electromagnetic fields (EMFs) from subsea power cables. Elasmobranchs, including sharks and rays, are sensitive to natural electric and magnetic fields used for navigation and prey ...

Brain tissue classification in hyperspectral images using multistage diffusion features and transformer

open access: yesJournal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Brain surgery is a widely practised and effective treatment for brain tumours, but accurately identifying and classifying tumour boundaries is crucial to maximise resection and avoid neurological complications. This precision in classification is essential for guiding surgical decisions and subsequent treatment planning.

The Evolution of Interest‐Rate Models: From the Yield Curve to the Swaption Cube

open access: yesJournal of Economic Surveys, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Interest‐rate modelling is often taught as a catalogue of competing stochastic equations, obscuring why models were created and why modern sell‐side desks use several simultaneously. This survey reorganises the field around five layers of a pricing architecture: curve construction; arbitrage‐free dynamics; volatility‐smile representation ...

Longevity, Health, and Housing Risk Management in Retirement

open access: yesThe Journal of Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Annuities, long‐term care insurance, and reverse mortgages remain puzzlingly unpopular to manage post‐retirement longevity, health, and housing price risks. We use a flexible life‐cycle model structurally estimated with a unique stated‐preference survey experiment of Canadian households to understand why. Key factors include high risk aversion,
