Random encounter modelling as a viable method to estimate absolute abundance of reef fish
Abstract Remote underwater video (RUV) surveys are increasingly replacing diver‐based underwater visual censuses (UVCs) in fish ecology studies, especially on coral reefs. However, extracting reliable estimates of abundance or density from video footage is a major challenge, with most studies using a metric of relative abundance, MaxN (maximum number ...

Abstract This study explores the practical impact of blockchain technology (BCT), which contrasts strongly with literature that has predominantly hypothesised BCT's potential to disrupt accounting practice. We interviewed 44 practitioners and academics with knowledge of BCT across 13 countries and industries.

Abstract Aims Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems are increasingly used, but their accuracy under flight‐conditions remains insufficiently studied. We assessed sensor accuracy of four CGMs during in‐flight (mid‐haul) and ground conditions.

Speed Bump and Stock Market Quality: Evidence From NYSE American
ABSTRACT Should trading speed of high‐frequency traders be regulated? Using the data from the New York Stock Exchange American, this paper examines the impact of a speed bump on market liquidity and price discovery. Our results indicate that the use of a speed bump can lower the costs of adverse selection through reducing informed trading.

An Economic Analysis of Difficulty Adjustment Algorithms in Proof‐of‐Work Blockchain Systems
ABSTRACT We study the stability of cryptocurrency systems through difficulty adjustment. Bitcoin's difficulty adjustment algorithm (DAA) exhibits instability when the reward elasticity of the hash rate is high, implying that a sharp price reduction could disrupt the current Bitcoin system.

Summary The autonomic nervous system regulates cardiovascular activity during sleep, likely impacting cardiovascular health. Aging, a primary cardiovascular risk factor, is associated with cardiac autonomic disbalance and diminished sleep slow waves. Therefore, slow waves may be linked to aging, autonomic activity and cardiovascular health. However, it

Bounded Concurrent Timestamp Systems Using Vector Clocks
Shared registers are basic objects used as communication mediums in asynchronous concurrent computation. A concurrent timestamp system is a higher typed communication object, and has been shown to be a powerful tool to solve many concurrency control ...

ABSTRACT The mouse sleep is mostly recorded with only epidural electrodes and divided simply into NREM and REM stages. With the help of distributed intracerebral triplet electrodes, we searched for possible new electrophysiological signatures to characterise more specific sleep substages within the timeframe of seconds to tens of minutes.
