The impacts of biological invasions

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Correcting Errors in the Adsorbed Intermediates of CO2 Electroreduction

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
Flying over Jacob's ladder of density functional approximations: chemical accuracy in the DFT‐based modeling of CO2 reduction electrocatalysis can be approached with our simple semiempirical method to deconvolute and correct gas‐phase errors and adsorbed‐phase errors.

The importance of terracing in the traditional cultural landscapes: the case study of Sicily (Italy) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The landscapes formed by agricultural terraces are the natural result of the encounter between the characteristics of an environment and the creative force and genius of man, the slow evolution of this relationship between nature and culture, a ...

Winning Legitimacy and Dodging Blame: How Government Communication Shapes Media Sentiments and Responsibility Attribution in Consensus Democracies

open access: yesEuropean Policy Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT How do governments' discursive credit‐claiming and blame‐deflection strategies shape perceived policy legitimacy in times of crisis? Despite the importance of legitimacy in conflictual times, systematic analyses of officeholders' credit‐claiming and blame‐deflection strategies and their effect on perceived legitimacy are still rare.

Demographic and Deprivation Ratios: examples of their use in understanding underlying spatial patterns in social phenomena [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The intention of this paper is to explore the concept of standardized demographic ordeprivation Ratios ? what they are, why they might be useful, for what statisticaldistributions they can be built, how they can be constructed and which research ...

Domain engineered gallium oxide phototransistors enabling intelligent ultraviolet vision with dynamic gating

open access: yesInfoMat, EarlyView.
Single‐domain Si‐doped β‐Ga2O3 thin films grown on off‐axis sapphire eliminate domain boundaries, improving transport and photogating. Gate‐pulse modulation suppresses persistent photoconductivity, yielding ultrafast response and high detectivity. Integrated into a 24 × 24 array, the devices enable high frame rate DUV imaging and energy‐efficient ...
