Utterance evolution: the road to generative, combinatorial communicators

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Language has long been considered uniquely complex in the animal kingdom; however, animal research over the last decade has begun to challenge some long‐standing premises about exactly which language capacities are uniquely human. The task of resolving why and how complex communication systems evolve, particularly human language, has ...

A novel soot concentration field estimator applied to sooting ethylene/air laminar flames

Engineering Applications of Computational Fluid Mechanics, 2019
Soot formation modeling, when incorporated into computational fluid dynamics of industrial devices, can be numerically prohibitive. Nonetheless, there remains a significant push to predict soot formation, so as to aid in environmentally sustainable ...

Orchard netting impacts on biodiversity leading to cascading effects at the ecosystem level

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Agriculture must ensure food production without further compromising the ecosystem functions upon which it depends. Agricultural practices should therefore avoid harming farmland biodiversity, especially of taxa that supply the key ecosystem services (e.g.

Carrion ecology: concepts, interdisciplinary synthesis, and perspectives

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Carrion is a ubiquitous resource in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, yet it has long been overlooked in ecological research. Over the past two decades, studies on carrion and the many organisms that exploit it have flourished, revealing not only wide‐ranging ecological functions but also significance far beyond ecology.

Beyond the Reports: Cultural Pressures, Unheard Voices and the Climate Accountability Gap in Oil and Gas Sector Governance

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental governance in Nigeria's oil and gas sector remains central to global climate justice debates, yet persistent accountability failures continue to undermine meaningful environmental and social outcomes. Despite extensive regulatory frameworks, accountability in resource‐dependent contexts is frequently reduced to formal reporting ...

Numerical investigation on soot particles emission in compression ignition diesel engine by using particulate mimic soot model

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2017
Research via computational method, specifically by detailed-kinetic soot model offers much more advantages than the simple model as more detailed formation/oxidation process is taken into consideration, thus providing better soot mass concentration, soot
