UCanWBGT: urban street canyon heat stress calculation for weather and climate models

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This work introduces UCanWBGT, a new model to calculate wet‐bulb globe temperature in an urban environment, suitable for use with weather and climate model data. We present the model, then verify its performance against observations made in the streets of Paris during heatwave conditions.

Den attendance by Arctic foxes experiencing 10 years of increasing tourism

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Wildlife tourism is a growing industry, and an increasing number of people seek to observe and interact with wild animals in their natural surroundings. In Iceland, the native Arctic fox Vulpes lagopus is widespread and has been under heavy hunting pressure for centuries.

Navigating a landscape of contrasting hunting regimes and habitats: red deer responses to risk and resources

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Habitat selection of ungulates is influenced by various factors, with human interactions playing a significant role. Human disturbances through hunting strongly affect ungulate behaviour, often forcing them to modify their habitat choices by avoiding areas where the risk from humans outweighs other habitat benefits. Gaining insights into these dynamics

La lumière et le temps sur la scène baroque : Poetique & Pratique

open access: yesDrammaturgia, 2016
Time: Aristotle, in the Poetics, recommends the playwright to confine his tragedy within «two revolutions of the sun»; the concept refers to the light perception, to the fact that greek drama is acted in the open air.

Artificial supplementary food influences hedgehog occupancy and activity patterns more than predator presence or natural food availability

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Supplementary feeding for declining hedgehog Erinaceus europaeus populations is popular in Great Britain and has been suggested as an important factor in explaining higher densities in urban areas compared with rural ones. Occupancy modelling was used to test whether spatial variation in supplementary feeding, natural food, habitat, or predator ...

MAGNETOSPHERIC RESPONSE TO THE INTERACTION WITH THE SPORADIC SOLAR WIND DIAMAGNETIC STRUCTURE

open access: yesSolar-Terrestrial Physics, 2021
We report the results of a study on the movement of the solar wind diamagnetic structure (DS), which is a sequence of smaller-scale microDS being part of the May 18, 2013 coronal mass ejection, from a source on the Sun to Earth’s surface.

Experimental assessment of large mammal population estimates from airborne thermal videography

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Wildlife resource management requires reliable, fast, and affordable methods of surveying wildlife populations to develop and adaptively adjust policies. Thermal video from drones can yield high rates of detection over large areas with relative speed and safety.

Practical use of solar system on Antarctic field survey ―An example of the Sor Rondane Mountains field research party, JARE-50―

open access: yesAntarctic Record, 2009
The field party in the Sor Rondane Mountains, a part of the summer party of the 50th Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition (JARE-50), performed as outdoor survey using a solar-electric system for field camping over a period of 67 days.

Intense photooxidative degradation of planktonic and bacterial lipids in sinking particles collected with sediment traps across the Canadian Beaufort Shelf (Arctic Ocean) [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2012
The lipid content of seven samples of sinking particles collected with sediment traps moored at ~ 100 m depth in summer and fall across the Canadian Beaufort Shelf (Arctic Ocean) was investigated. Our main goal was to quantify and characterize the biotic
