From LiDAR point clouds to 3D tree morphometrics: New approach to quantitatively evaluate tree shapes

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Tree crowns are complex, three‐dimensional structures whose morphology varies among species, individuals and environments. Although light detection and ranging (LiDAR) provides high‐resolution, single‐tree point clouds that advance species discrimination and the assessment of intraspecific variation in situ, crown shape is still commonly ...

Beyond the Individual: Multisite Population‐Level Consequences of Road Mortality on a Declining Mammal

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
We used a comparative study design to quantify population densities, structure, survival, cause‐specific mortality and female productivity in four West‐European hedgehog (Erinaceus europaeus) populations, and to forecast the impact of road mortality on population viability.

The incidence of pale, soft, and exudative (PSE) turkey meat at a Brazilian commercial plant and the functional properties in its meat product

, 2014
The objective of this study was to report the incidence of pale, soft, and exudative (PSE) turkey breast meat at a commercial plant in southern Brazil and the consequences on the quality of meat processing. This study was subdivided into 2 experiments: I)

Serial dependence in time perception requires consistent motor responses, not shared memory alone

British Journal of Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Serial dependence—the bias from recent experience on present response—has been attributed to shared memory representations, yet previous studies yielded contradictory findings about whether consistent motor responses are required. To address this debate in time perception, we tested whether serial dependence emerges when tasks share identical ...

microRNA blood signature for localized radiation injury

Scientific Reports
A radiological accident, whether from industrial, medical, or malicious origin, may result in localized exposure to high doses of ionizing radiations, leading to the development of local radiation injury (LRI), that may evolve toward deep ulceration and ...

The First Network of Ocean Bottom Seismometers in the Red Sea to Investigate the Zabargad Fracture Zone

Seismica
In the last decades, the slow-spreading Red Sea rift has been the objective of several geophysical investigations to study the extension of the oceanic crust, the thickness of the sedimentary cover, and the formation of transform faults.

Space–time interference in magnitude judgements revealed by drift‐diffusion modelling

British Journal of Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Space and time are strongly interrelated in human cognition: spatial extent can bias temporal judgements, whereas duration can influence perceived spatial extent. However, the mechanisms underlying these reciprocal effects remain debated. We investigated these interactions using psychophysical measures, individual difference analyses and drift‐

Non‐Rigid 3D Shape Correspondences: From Foundations to Open Challenges and Opportunities

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Estimating correspondences between deformed shape instances is a long‐standing problem in computer graphics; numerous applications, from texture transfer to statistical modelling, rely on recovering an accurate correspondence map. Many methods have thus been proposed to tackle this challenging problem from varying perspectives, depending on ...
