The Space Around Us

Science, 1997
What kind of maps do we keep inside our minds to chart the space around our bodies? In one area of the brain, some evidence suggests that neurons code for pieces of our environment that are not identified by their absolute position in space, but rather by their position in relation to the body.

Use of a Space Graft in Rhinoplasty

Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2023
Background: Construction of the nasal tip strut is an important part of rhinoplasty; the incidence of postoperative complications is closely related to the type of graft and the approach to cartilaginous framework construction.

The Dreamer's Use of Space

Journal of the American Psychoanalytic Association, 2005
The dreamer often portrays wishes, conflicts, or current problems in terms of visual-spatial representations and metaphors.The spatial dimensions of dreams frequently signify important affective themes of the dream. In doing so, they serve to continue or reflect processes of self-recognition in relation to the environment, processes that began in early

Space use optimisation and sustainability—environmental assessment of space use concepts

Journal of Environmental Management, 2004
In this paper, as part of a diptych, we discuss the factor space as a means of improving the environmental performance of building projects. There are indicators for space use efficiency and several more or less broadly supported methods for assessment of environmental issues such as ecological quality, use of building materials and energy consumption.

The Scaling of Animal Space Use

Science, 2004
Space used by animals increases with increasing body size. Energy requirements alone can explain how population density decreases, but not the steep rate at which home range area increases. We present a general mechanistic model that predicts the frequency of interaction, spatial overlap, and loss of resources to neighbors. Extensive empirical evidence

Habitat Selection and Space Use

2022
This review provides support for the role of both macro- and micro-scale factors driving habitat selection by the little bustard. At a regional scale, little bustard distribution shows a clear relationship with temperature-related variables, but also a strong conspecific attraction and a tendency to philopatry at a local scale, making it especially ...

The Spaces between Us

2014
Despite having one of the highest per-capita incomes of the world, social and political changes in Qatar have not kept pace with the country's economic development. The expatriate and national population of the small emirate have access to luxury brands and a variety of Western goods including food as well as hotels. The high level of commercialization,

The analysis of space use patterns

Journal of Theoretical Biology, 1979
In this paper we describe and test a new method for characterizing the space use patterns of individual animals on the basis of successive locations of marked individuals. Existing methods either do not describe space use in probabilistic terms, e.g. the maximum distance between locations or the area of the convex hull of all locations, or they assume ...

Using Aluminum for Space Propulsion

Journal of Propulsion and Power, 2004
The combination of aluminum and water was theoretically analyzed to assess its performance potential for space propulsion, in particular for microrocket applications and whenever a compact package is desirable. Heat of reaction, impulse density, and handling safety are features making this combination interesting for chemical thrusters, especially ...

Space is us

New Scientist, 2019
For the sake of our own planet, we need to rediscover the wonder of space exploration, writes Richard ...
