Controllable Intrinsic Surface Pattern Generation Using Slime Mold Simulations

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Surface‐based pattern simulations have proven valuable for texture design and scientific visualization, but existing methods face several limitations. Most simulations either target a narrow range of pattern types (e.g. spots, branching) or support a broad range of patterns at the cost of time‐consuming parameter tuning.

Difference in accumulation of puffer fish toxin and crystalline tetrodotoxin in the puffer fish,Fugu rubripes rubripes.

open access: yesNIPPON SUISAN GAKKAISHI, 1981
In order to examine whether the innocuous cultured puffer fish, Fugu rubripes rubripes (Japanese name, torafugu), is able to accumulate orally administered tetrodotoxin (TTx) or not, a feeding test was carried out for 20 days using the toxic ovary of puffer fish, its methanol extract, and crystalline TTx, and the toxicity of various tissues was ...

Drivers of bat researchers’ intent to adopt field hygiene practices

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Infectious disease is a growing threat to wildlife, with zoonotic transmission most likely at the human–wildlife interface. One underappreciated activity at this interface is fieldwork with wild animals, but associated risks can be mitigated through field hygiene (FH) practices, such as using personal protective equipment and other appropriate

Reconsidering the role of introduced species in the climate‐affected and highly invaded eastern Mediterranean

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Bioinvasions are considered mostly as a biodiversity and conservation hazard, but in specific situations, introduced species can bring ecological or socioeconomic benefits. We assessed the social–ecological role of marine introduced species in the eastern Mediterranean Sea—a global hotspot of bioinvasions and extirpations—and their potential ...

Speculation in the United Kingdom, 1785‒2019

open access: yesThe Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Speculation has long been thought to have significant economic effects, but it is difficult to measure, making it challenging to examine these effects empirically. In this paper we measure speculation in the United Kingdom since 1785 by using business and financial reporting in The Times newspaper.
