Signs of compliance: Message framing influences outdoor recreationists' responses to conservation requests

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Natural landscapes shared by people and wildlife often rely on signage to guide people towards behaviours that protect nature, where the justification and framing of these requests may influence how people interpret and respond to them. We conducted a factorial vignette experiment with 600 frequent outdoor recreationists living in Scotland ...

Controlling Linear and Non‐Linear Mechanics in Multicomponent Hydrogels Through Programmable Supramolecular and Covalent Interactions

Journal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Fully synthetic, multi‐component hydrogels are engineered that possess tunable (non)‐linear mechanics by programmable supramolecular and covalent interactions. By changing the type of inter‐network interaction, the linear and non‐linear mechanics of the macroscopic hydrogel were programmed.

Testing Times: A Structure/Agency Perspective on Becoming a Science Teacher in a Competitive, Exam‐Based Teacher Selection System

Science Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While extensive research exists on science teacher shortages, less attention has been directed toward countries facing the opposite challenge: an oversupply of science teachers. This study examines the experiences of prospective science teachers in South Korea, where passing a high‐stakes, annual competitive examination is a prerequisite for ...

Histogram of the tick bites per grid cell.

, 2019
As seen, after the process of spatial aggregation described in Section 3.1, a skewed distribution with zero-inflation is created. Note that the X-axis is represented in log-scale to ease the visualization of the distribution.

Distribution of tick-borne microorganisms in human-biting ticks in France collected through a Citizen-science program

Ticks and Tick-Borne Diseases
Ticks occupy diverse habitats, increasing the risk of human exposure. Assessing the public health threat posed by ticks requires rigorous monitoring of their distribution and of the prevalence of tick-borne pathogens.
