Abstract We investigate Scottish end users' and professional forecasters' risk perception in relation to the 5‐point European Avalanche Danger Scale by eliciting numerical estimates of the probability of triggering an avalanche. Our main findings are that neither end users nor professional forecasters interpret the avalanche danger scale as intended ...

Abstract Cold temperatures (<−15°C) increase exercise‐induced bronchoconstriction (EIB), while hypoxic‐induced hyperventilation exacerbates respiratory muscle fatigue for a given exercising task. This study aimed to determine the individual and combined effects of cold and normobaric hypoxia on the respiratory system responses to high‐intensity ...

Abstract figure legend Twenty‐seven pre‐menopausal, untrained females performed a 12‐week resistance training programme to explore the association between androgen concentrations, androgen receptor signalling and skeletal muscle size and strength. Total testosterone was not associated with muscle mass or strength, nor with resistance training‐induced ...
