Repeatability of Nest Site Selection of Green Turtles on Samandağ Beach
Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart University Journal of Marine Sciences and FisheriesNest site selection is a maternal effect on hatchling survival in species without parental care. Sea turtles depend on sandy beaches for nesting, and females perform nest site selection on the beach for the successful development of their embryos.

The importance of scale-dependent ravine characteristics on breeding-site selection by the Burrowing Parrot, Cyanoliseus patagonus [PDF]
PeerJ, 2017 In birds, the environmental variables and intrinsic characteristics of the nest have important fitness consequences through its influence on the selection of nesting sites. However, the extent to which these variables interact with variables that operate

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective Despite guideline recommendations, long‐term glucocorticoid (GC) use is common in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We conducted a clinician survey nested within a large registry to identify patient and clinician factors associated with GC use. Methods Clinicians contributing patients to the CorEvitas Rheumatoid Arthritis Registry were surveyed ...

Aspects of the breeding biology of wading birds (charadrii) on a saltmarsh [PDF]
, 1979 Aspects of the breeding biology of Lapwing, Oyster- catcher and Redshank were studied on a dry, cattle-grazed saltmarsh, Rockcliffe Marsh, in Cumbria. The vegetation of the marsh was predominantly graminoid, due to the influence of grazing and trampling ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Predicting extreme defects in additive manufacturing remains a key challenge limiting its structural reliability. This study proposes a statistical framework that integrates Extreme Value Theory with advanced process indicators to explore defect–process relationships and improve the estimation of critical defect sizes. The approach provides a basis for

Considering Spatial Scale and Reproductive Consequences of Habitat Selection when Managing Grasslands for a Threatened Species. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Habitat selection that has fitness consequences has important implications for conservation activities. For example, habitat characteristics that influence nest success in birds can be manipulated to improve habitat quality with the goal of ultimately ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Geometry‐driven thermal behavior in wire‐arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) influences microstructural evolution during nonequilibrium solidification of a chemically complex Fe–Cr–Nb–W–Mo–C nanocomposite system. By comparing different deposits configurations, distinct entropy–cooling rate correlations, segregation, and carbide evolution are revealed ...
