Pickin' up good vibrations: a systematic review of footfall detection and analysis in the realm of wildlife surveying

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Exploration of new wildlife surveying methodologies that leverage advances in sensor technology and machine learning has led to tentative research into the application of seismology techniques. This, most commonly, involves the deployment of a footfall trap – a seismic sensor and data logger customised for wildlife footfall.

Nesting ecology of an ice‐associated seabird, Kittlitz's murrelet, at the northern edge of its range

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
We studied the Kittlitz's murrelet, an ice‐associated seabird of conservation concern, at the northern edge of its range. Over a 2‐year period, we estimated nest density and success at 2 sites, captured and telemetered nesting murrelets, and tested the use of a thermal camera to improve nest detection.

FPGA‐accelerated streaming data reduction achieving an average compression ratio over 8000 in a 17.4 kHz, 840 kpixel CITIUS detector for quasi‐elastic gamma‐ray scattering

open access: yesJournal of Synchrotron Radiation, EarlyView.
A high‐throughput field‐programmable gate array (FPGA)‐accelerated data‐reduction and ‐analysis pipeline combined with high‐performance computing enables the continuous handling of a 216 Gbps data stream from quasi‐elastic gamma‐ray scattering experiments at SPring‐8.We present a data‐acquisition and ‐analysis framework for quasi‐elastic gamma‐ray ...

Non‐destructive orientation tracking of individual β‐Sn grains in die‐attach solder joints

open access: yesJournal of Synchrotron Radiation, EarlyView.
This study introduces inclined scanning three‐dimensional X‐ray diffraction microscopy (i‐S3DXRD) that enables three‐dimensional orientation mapping of planar polycrystalline materials, revealing the thermal fatigue mechanism of Pb‐free solder joints.Understanding the failure mechanisms of Pb‐free solder joints during thermal cycling is a critical ...

Developmental environment and age shape macronutrient allocation to eggs and ejaculates

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Environmental conditions during development can have lasting effects on reproductive investment, but the sex‐ and age‐specific nature of such effects remains poorly understood.

Games and gamification projects in the Australian public sector

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Public Administration, EarlyView.
Abstract This article surveys the arrival of gameful government into Australian public sector practice. Gameful government is a shorthand, descriptive term denoting the interpenetration of (video)games, and design elements and thinking from them, into public sector work.

Broke and Broken: The Crises Facing Local Government in England

open access: yesThe Political Quarterly, Volume 96, Issue 1, Page 199-205, January/March 2025.
Abstract English local government faces a perilous position owing to insufficient funding, structural issues and capacity challenges. Fourteen years of austerity have significantly reduced council budgets, while increased demand for services—particularly adult social care—has strained resources.
