Receptive Meaning‐Recall Knowledge of Derivational Morphology Among EFL Learners: A Case for L1‐Population‐Specific Assessment

TESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Vocabulary knowledge plays a crucial role in L2 proficiency, significantly impacting learners' reading comprehension. Although extensive research has explored whether knowledge of base words extends to recognition of derivational forms, results are inconsistent, especially among learners from non‐Indo‐European linguistic backgrounds.

Agricultural Fungicide Mancozeb in Leaf Litter Enhances Survival and Growth of Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae)

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mancozeb is one of the most widely used agricultural fungicides, exhibiting strong efficacy against a broad spectrum of phytopathogenic fungi. However, its widespread application comes at the cost of environmental contamination. Here, we show the effects of Inga vera leaf litter contamination with Mancozeb on life‐history traits of Aedes ...

Overdispersion in service systems

, 2020
In this thesis service systems with nonstandard arrival processes are studied. In order to mimic real arrival data, we choose to incorporate overdispersion in the models. This feature is abundantly present in (arrival) data of e.g., emergency departments and call centers and corresponds to the phenomenon that the variance of the number of arrivals is ...

Wildfire Ash Alters Freshwater Crustacean Behavior: Disentangling the Contributions of Suspended Macroparticles and Ash‐Induced Alkalinization

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change and anthropogenic ignitions are intensifying wildfire frequency worldwide, elevating the risk of freshwater contamination by ash. In water, dissolved ash releases ions and other toxic constituents that increase pH and alter physicochemical conditions, while suspended ash particles may impose mechanical stress, disrupt behavior ...

Temporal and seasonal trends of bovine tuberculosis in the Irish cattle population (2008–2024)

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Bovine tuberculosis (bTB) has substantial impacts on the Irish cattle industry. Between 2016 and 2024, its burden increased in Irish cattle. As an initial step towards understanding drivers of this increase, we explore long‐term trends in measures of bTB burden and cattle demographics in Ireland. Methods Using data from 2008 to 2024,

Monitoring active osprey nests with drones is more time efficient and less disturbing than conventional methods

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Drones are used to monitor bird nesting sites at less accessible locations, such as on cliffs, human infrastructure, or within the tree canopy. While there are a growing number of studies documenting avian behavioral responses to various drones, there is a continued need to monitor taxa‐specific responses to different drone models. We explored both the
