Evaluation of drones as a tool for multi‐species nest surveys on linear rights‐of‐way

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
This paper examines the use of drones with infrared cameras as a tool in the detection of bird nests on linear rights‐of‐way, in comparison to standard ground‐based nest surveys. Abstract The varying application of drone use in wildlife research has expanded in recent years. With the ability to utilize a variety of different sensors (e.g., infrared [IR]

Adaptively coupled phase retrieval in multi‐peak Bragg coherent diffraction imaging

open access: yesJournal of Applied Crystallography, EarlyView.
We present an adaptively coupled phase retrieval algorithm for multi‐peak Bragg coherent diffraction imaging. The technique uses the redundant information contained in separate Bragg peaks to detect and remove spurious signal.Recent advances in Bragg coherent diffraction imaging (BCDI) experimental techniques permit routine measurement of multiple ...

Demonstration of a family of X‐ray dark‐field retrieval approaches on a common set of samples

open access: yesJournal of Synchrotron Radiation, EarlyView.
This study aims to guide users of dark‐field imaging in selecting the most suitable technique for their imaging goals. To this end, we provide a summary table and highlight opportunities for future research into the sources of dark‐field contrast across emerging methods.There are various imaging setups capable of capturing dark‐field images, each with ...

New opportunities for grassland species in warming temperate winters

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Temperate winters are getting warmer, the length of the growing season is increasing and mid‐winter fluctuations of warm and freezing temperatures are more frequent. Although typically winter dormant, some herbaceous perennials can maintain or grow green leaves during ...

Flap Anatomies and Victorian Veils: Penetrating the Female Reproductive Interior

open access: yesGender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines the reappearance in the early nineteenth century of anatomical flapbooks in the context of obstetrical education in Britain, America and France. It asks why liftable paper flaps were reintroduced at this time after their disappearance from medical atlases in the eighteenth century.

‘Mere Amateurs’? Elementary Teachers and the Making of Scientific Authority in the British Child Study Movement

open access: yesHistory, EarlyView.
Abstract This article offers new perspectives on the relationship between elementary teaching, scientific expertise and the professionalization of the human sciences. Previous scholarship has demonstrated the ready existence of ‘amateur’ science societies in the nineteenth century where cross‐class exchanges were common.

China's Strategic Approach to Tech Diplomacy in a Time of Global Uncertainty

open access: yesGlobal Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the wake of U.S.‐China technological competition and the COVID‐19 pandemic, “tech diplomacy” has gained prominence in Chinese political and academic discourse. This concept is often ideologically framed to critique Western hegemonic narratives perceived as hindering China's technological advancement.

Inferring bird migration from bone isotopes and histology: A fossil‐friendly methodological framework

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Bird seasonal migration is a remarkable biogeographic phenomenon, yet its deep‐time origin(s) and evolutionary history remain poorly understood, with the bird fossil record largely overlooked. This study explores the predictability of bird migratory behaviour from the oxygen isotope composition of their bone apatite phosphate (δ18Op), a ...
