Rusty Blackbird Habitat Selection and Survivorship during Nesting and Post-Fledging

Diversity, 2020
Rusty blackbird (Euphagus carolinus) populations have declined dramatically since the 1970s and the cause of decline is still unclear. As is the case for many passerines, most research on rusty blackbirds occurs during the nesting period. Nest success is

Vacuum‐Formed Composites Based on a Polyolefin and a High Content of Biomass‐Waste Fillers

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
It is shown here that by the use of a very ductile polymer matrix, it is possible to vacuum‐form products that contain up to 25% of hard biofillers with still ductile properties. The results are promising and opens up for the use of engineered biocomposites derived from industrial side‐stream biofillers in vacuum‐formed products. A strategy to increase

A deeper look at the GD1 stream: density variations and wiggles [PDF]

, 2018
Using deep photometric data from CFHT/Megacam, we study the morphology and density of the GD-1 stream, one of the longest and coldest stellar streams in the Milky Way. Our deep data recovers the lower main sequence of the stream with unprecedented quality, clearly separating it from Milky Way foreground and background stars. An analysis of the distance

Plato on the Stream. Platonism in the Age of Streaming

Aisthesis, 2016
This article defends a Platonist view of streaming. It is opposite to the mainstream representation that streaming has “liquidated” the structure both objective and collective of musical experience. On the contrary, streaming is the support of a new kind of musical object, which is distinct both from the allographic notational objects (scores) and from

Preparation and Thermal Modification of Disentangled Ultrahigh‐Molecular‐Weight Polyethylene Particles for Powder‐Based Additive Manufacturing

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Ultrahigh‐molecular‐weight polyethylene powders (<≈40 μm) with a bulk density of 260 g L−1 are prepared from a silica supported bisimine pyridine iron catalyst. The nascent product is disentangled and can be thermally densified without loss of its low viscosity.

Real‐Time Characterization of Polypropylene Jet Dynamics in Melt Electrospinning Using Laser Diffraction and Image Analysis

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study uses real‐time laser diffraction image analysis to quantify fiber diameter changes and whipping behavior from the nozzle to the collector under varying electric field conditions. By capturing diffraction (scattering) intensity changes and bending angles, melt jet and whipping behavior are accurately assessed, supporting melt electrospinning ...

Kin discrimination in tadpoles of Hylarana temporalis (Anura: Ranidae) and Sphaerotheca breviceps (Anura: Dicroglossidae) hydroperiod and social habits

Phyllomedusa: Journal of Herpetology, 2014
Kin discrimination ability was studied in tadpoles of Hylarana temporalis and Sphaerotheca breviceps, which live in two distinctly different habitats; the former shows social aggregation and the latter live scattered. Early in development, tadpoles of H.

Does the habitat structure control the distribution and diversity of the Odonatofauna?

Brazilian Journal of Biology
The statement that the habitat complexity and structure govern the abundance and diversity of biological communities has been widely investigated. In this context, we assumed the hypothesis of habitat heterogeneity, that is, the higher habitat complexity

Titanium‐S23: A New Alloy with Ultra‐High Tensile Toughness Directly from the Solid‐State Processing of Recycled Ti–6Al–4V and Ti–5Al–5Mo–5V–3Cr Powders using Field Assisted Sintering Technology

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study explores combining two existing aerospace titanium alloy powders, processing them via field‐assisted sintering technology and the subsequent discovery of a novel alloy composition, termed S23, with ultra‐high tensile toughness. Fine‐scale alpha precipitates favorably form in the alloy despite the relatively slow cooling, providing an ...

Double-Coupling Learning for Multi-Task Data Stream Classification [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
Data stream classification methods demonstrate promising performance on a single data stream by exploring the cohesion in the data stream. However, multiple data streams that involve several correlated data streams are common in many practical scenarios, which can be viewed as multi-task data streams.
