Effect of bulb type on moth trap catch and composition in UK gardens

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
We analyse 10 years of records Garden Moth Scheme (GMS) to estimate the effect of bulb and trap type on the number of moths caught by moth traps. We find that brighter, higher wattage bulbs collect the most moths. Heath traps catch fewer moths than Robinson or Skinner‐stye traps.

Performance Analysis of Scattering-Level Multiplexing (SLMux) in Distributed Fiber-Optic Backscatter Reflectometry Physical Sensors

open access: yesSensors, 2020
Optical backscatter reflectometry (OBR) is a method for the interrogation of Rayleigh scattering occurring in each section of an optical fiber, resulting in a single-fiber-distributed sensor with sub-millimeter spatial resolution.

First-principles, atomistic thermodynamics for oxidation catalysis

open access: yes, 2002
Present knowledge of the function of materials is largely based on studies (experimental and theoretical) that are performed at low temperatures and ultra-low pressures. However, the majority of everyday applications, like e.g.

The Evolving Landscape of CHD Genetics: A Contemporary Guide to Genetic Testing and Management

open access: yesJournal of Paediatrics and Child Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common birth defect, affecting an estimated 9.4/1000 infants globally. The genetics of CHD is complex, with most cases thought to have multifactorial aetiology, implicating both genetic and environmental factors.

A Running Reference Analysis Method to Greatly Improve Optical Backscatter Reflectometry Strain Data from the Inside of Hardening and Shrinking Materials

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2018
Due to the increasing ease of use and the superiority of the results, distributed strain measurements, utilizing Optical Backscatter Reflectometry (OBR), have become more important and widespread over the last few years.

Long‐Term Time Horizons and Support for Public Investment

open access: yesPolicy Studies Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Generating public support for long‐term public investment may require understanding what citizens perceive as the “long term” in politics and how these perceptions shape their preferences. Across two studies, we find that UK citizens generally understand “long term” as 5–10 years.

Tunable narrow-band single-channel add-drop integrated optical filter with ultrawide FSR

open access: yesPhotoniX, 2022
Free-spectral-range (FSR)-free optical filters have always been a critical challenge for photonic integrated circuits. A high-performance FSR-free filter is highly desired for communication, spectroscopy, and sensing applications.

Left-induced model structures and diagram categories [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We prove existence results a la Jeff Smith for left-induced model category structures, of which the injective model structure on a diagram category is an important example.

A Consideration of Fiscal Targetry

open access: yesScottish Journal of Political Economy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The UK's current fiscal rules and framework are not fit for purpose. Try as they might, the rules are more “honor'd in the breach than the observance”. They have introduced an unintended incentive on the margin (at fiscal events) to trade off government investment for government consumption.

Diabetic Ketoacidosis in the Obstetric Population: A Simulation Scenario for Anesthesia Providers

open access: yesMedEdPORTAL, 2016
Introduction This simulation on diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) in the obstetric population presents learners with one of the more commonly encountered etiologies of critical illness in the pregnant patient.
