Origin, evolution and biogeographic dynamics of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) in Southwestern Europe

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The Pleistocene is a key period for understanding the evolutionary history and palaeobiogeography of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus). The species was first documented in southeastern Iberia at the beginning of the Middle Pleistocene and appears to have rapidly spread throughout Southwestern Europe, where it was found in numerous ...

DOMAIN ADAPTATION BASED FAULT DIAGNOSIS UNDER VARIABLE OPERATING CONDITIONS OF A ROCK DRILL

open access: yesInternational Journal of Prognostics and Health Management, 2023
Data-driven fault diagnosis is an essential technology for the safety and maintenance of rock drills. However, since the signals acquired from a rock drill have different distributions, which arise due to their variable operating conditions, the ...

Re‐evaluation of a soft crested Edmontosaurin, with implications for hadrosaurid life appearance and diversity

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Hadrosaurid dinosaurs are generally regarded as “crested” or “non‐crested” depending on the presence or absence of a bony cranial crest. At least one supposedly “non‐crested” hadrosaur is known to have possessed a soft tissue cranial crest (or comb), based on an exceptionally preserved “mummified” specimen. Here we redescribe this specimen and

Poseidon's Sanctuary at Samikon—The Discovery of an Ancient Temple Through an Integrated Geophysical and Geoarchaeological Survey Approach for Lagoonal and Swampy Environments

open access: yesArchaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Below the classical fortress of Samikon at the coast of the western Peloponnese, ancient writer Strabo mentioned a sanctuary of Poseidon which served as the centre of the religious association of the Triphylian cities. In this paper, we describe the discovery and investigation of a building structure by means of geophysical and ...

Bit selection method based on the rock drillability characteristics and principal component analysis of rock-breaking indicators

open access: yesHeliyon
Ultra-deep oil and gas structure is the key field of exploration and development in the southern margin of Junggar Basin. In this area, the formation lithology is complex, the rock strength is high, and the drilling engineering has problems such as low ...

Scanning Parametric Sediment Echosounder as Tool for Underwater Archaeological Prospection

open access: yesArchaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Underwater cultural heritage 3D prospection techniques, especially for remains that are partly buried in the ground, are only very rarely available and often can only be applied with considerable technical effort. To overcome this limitation, we evaluate a methodological adaption of widely used and available single channel parametric sediment ...

Neurofilament light chain as in vitro and clinical biomarker of vincristine‐induced peripheral neuropathy

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Vincristine‐induced peripheral neuropathy (VIPN) is a common side effect in children and adolescents treated with vincristine. Assessing VIPN, especially in young children, is challenging due to a lack of sensitive tools. This limits our understanding of the nature and risk factors of VIPN. This study aimed to investigate neurofilament light chain

Development and application of a hybrid PDC bit for drilling the high temperature granite formation in the deep geothermal exploration well Fushenre-1

open access: yesEnergy Geoscience
Geothermal energy is a clean and renewable energy with significant potential. During the drilling process of geothermal development, conventional drill bits often suffer from significant wear and severe cutter breakage.

String Figuring young children's perspectives of quality in English early childhood education and care

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Quality in early childhood education and care (ECEC) is a contested concept and has generally been conceptualised by inter‐related indicators such as staff qualifications, educational environment, policy or child‐to‐staff ratios. There has been a more limited emphasis on how young children might perceive and experience quality.

Listening to Hong Kong children's perspectives through pretend play

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Quality in early childhood education and care (ECEC) has become an increasing concern in recent years. The issue has been regularly discussed by different stakeholders. However, the rising concern regarding quality in ECEC has not seriously taken into account children's perspectives.
