An Arbovirus Cline across the Northern Hemisphere

open access: yesVirology, 1995
The mode and tempo of arbovirus evolution and dispersal can help to explain the dynamics of pandemics, viral outbreaks, and emerging viruses. By comparing nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequences of their envelope proteins, we describe the continuous distribution of the tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) complex viruses, the most important flaviviruses ...

How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...

Extending the SBUV polar mesospheric cloud data record with the OMPS NP [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2019
We have utilized Solar Backscatter Ultraviolet (SBUV) instrument measurements of atmospheric radiance to create a 40-year record of polar mesospheric cloud (PMC) behavior.

Evidence for adaptive explanations of semelparity in animals

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Semelparity, the reproductive strategy of reproducing once, is widespread but uncommon in animals. Classes of models to explain the evolution of semelparity are based either on age structure and mortality schedules – demographic models in which high post‐reproductive mortality risk favours high reproductive effort and semelparity results from ...

A Quantitative Approach for Assessing and Monitoring the Social Licence of Forestry to Operate: A New Zealand Case Study

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Social Licence to Operate (SLO) is an increasingly strategic concern in forestry, yet its evaluation remains largely qualitative. This study presents the first quantitative framework for assessing SLO in New Zealand's forestry sector, adapted from the Boutilier and Thomson model, originally developed for the mining sector.

Dynamic survival risk prediction with time‐varying high‐dimensional images

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
Abstract Integrating longitudinal data with survival models is a prevalent strategy for dynamic survival risk prediction while accounting for subjects' longitudinally observed variables. However, existing methods primarily focus on scalar longitudinal data and seldom tackle the complexities associated with high‐dimensional longitudinal imaging data ...

The ionospheric F2 region winter anomaly and its dependence on solar activity in the northern and southern hemisphere.

open access: yesGeofísica Internacional, 1997
Data from two ionospheric sounders each from the northern and southern hemisphere, are used for a statistical analysis of foF2 monthly medians for summer and winter and high and low solar activity.

Defining Reconciliation Studies: Theoretical and Practical Dimensions

open access: yesConflict Resolution Quarterly, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Reconciliation studies (RS) has become increasingly influential in understanding alternative views to ending conflict and dealing with the aftermath. As a discipline or field, however, it is not well defined. The actual usefulness of reconciliation (as a concept), or of RS (as a discipline), is debated, and due to its growing usage, it is ...

Water Electrolysis Technologies for Extraterrestrial Water Resource Conversion

open access: yesEcoEnergy, EarlyView.
This paper reviews four water electrolysis technologies for extraterrestrial water conversion: alkaline water electrolysis, proton exchange membrane water electrolysis, solid oxide water electrolysis, and anion exchange membrane water electrolysis. It elaborates on their mechanisms, components, and integration, highlighting challenges such as water ...
