Extrasolar Planet Transits Observed at Kitt Peak National Observatory

open access: yes, 2012
We obtained J-, H- and JH-band photometry of known extrasolar planet transiting systems at the 2.1-m Kitt Peak National Observatory Telescope using the FLAMINGOS infrared camera between October 2008 and October 2011.

Phenotypic Expression in the Paper Wasp \u3ci\u3ePolistes Fuscatus\u3c/i\u3e (Hymenoptera: Vespidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Quantification of color/color pattern in Polistes fuscatus (Fabricius) revealed that these attributes were the interaction of two antagonistic color sequences; their expression being highly correlated with nest microclimate (relative humidity-temperature)

The evolution of sensitive periods beyond early ontogeny: Bridging theory and data

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Sensitive periods, in which experiences have a large impact on phenotypic development, are most common early in ontogeny. Yet, they may also occur at later ontogenetic stages, such as adolescence.

Phylogeographic analysis reveals high genetic structure with uniform phenotypes in the paper wasp Protonectarina sylveirae (Hymenoptera: Vespidae)

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Swarm-founding wasps are endemic and common representatives of neotropical fauna and compose an interesting social tribe of vespids, presenting both complex social characteristics and uncommon traits for a eusocial group, such as the absence of castes ...

Using P3P in a web services-based context-aware application platform [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
This paper describes a proposal for a privacy control architecture to be applied in the WASP project. The WASP project aims to develop a context-aware service platform on top of 3G networks, using web services technology.

Explorations into the Viability of Coupled Radius-Orbit Evolutionary Models for Inflated Planets

open access: yes, 2009
The radii of some transiting extrasolar giant planets are larger than would be expected by the standard theory. We address this puzzle with the model of coupled radius-orbit tidal evolution developed by \citet{Ibgui_and_Burrows_2009}.

High-precision photometry by telescope defocussing. III. The transiting planetary system WASP-2 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We present high-precision photometry of three transits of the extrasolar planetary system WASP-2, obtained by defocussing the telescope, and achieving point-to-point scatters of between 0.42 and 0.73 mmag.

Rooted disruptions: Below‐ground herbivory drives contrasting natural enemy foraging for hosts and prey

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Although research on below‐ground multitrophic interactions has increased, comparative studies examining how root herbivores influence the foraging behaviour of different natural enemies—especially generalist predators—remains limited.

A Very Big Hand Is a Very Big Problem: Soft-Tissue Infection, Venous Thrombosis, or Just an Insect Sting?

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Case Reports in Internal Medicine, 2016
A 67-year-old woman developed severe edema of her right hand and forearm, for which she was treated with antibiotics, without benefit. The echography excluded a venous thrombosis.
