Improved performance with automatic sound management 3 in the MED-EL SONNET 2 cochlear implant audio processor

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Objectives The SONNET 2 audio processor features ambient noise reduction (ANR), transient-noise reduction (TNR), and adaptive intelligence (AI). The primary aim of this study was to evaluate if using these features improves speech perception in noise ...

Cats Are Not Fish: A Ricker Model Fails to Account for Key Aspects of Trap–Neuter–Return Programs

open access: yesAnimals, 2021
In a frequently cited 2005 paper, a Ricker model was used to assess the effectiveness of trap–neuter–return (TNR) programs for managing free-roaming domestic cat populations.

Double twist torsion testing to determine the non recrystallization temperature

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
A double-twist torsion testing technique has been developed using a 316 stainless steel as an exemplar material to experimentally assess recrystallization behavior and determine the non-recrystallization temperature (Tnr). This new method was compared to

A Case Study in Citizen Science: The Effectiveness of a Trap-Neuter-Return Program in a Chicago Neighborhood

open access: yesAnimals, 2018
The use of trap-neuter-return (TNR) as a method of managing free-roaming cat populations has increased in the United States in recent decades. Historically, TNR has been conducted most often at a grassroots level, which has led to inconsistent data ...

A Case of Letting the Cat out of The Bag—Why Trap-Neuter-Return Is Not an Ethical Solution for Stray Cat (Felis catus) Management

open access: yesAnimals, 2019
Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) programs, in which stray cats are captured, neutered and returned to the environment are advocated as a humane, ethical alternative to euthanasia.

Response to Wolf et al.: Furthering Debate over the Suitability of Trap-Neuter-Return for Stray Cat Management

open access: yesAnimals, 2020
To continue dialogue over proposed Australian trials of Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR), we applied a framework requiring identification of areas of agreement, areas of disagreement, and identification of empirical data collection required to resolve ...

Addressing robust travel mode identification with individual trip‐chain trajectory noise reduction

open access: yesIET Intelligent Transport Systems, 2023
Identifying travel modes from Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) trajectories is helpful for traffic management. In mode identification, the motion features are extracted from trajectories to train the classifiers.

An Examination of an Iconic Trap-Neuter-Return Program: The Newburyport, Massachusetts Case Study

open access: yesAnimals, 2017
The use of trap-neuter-return (TNR) as a humane alternative to the lethal management of free-roaming cats has been on the rise for several decades in the United States; however a relative paucity of data from TNR programs exists. An iconic community-wide

A renewed call for conservation leadership 10 years further in the feral cat Trap‐Neuter‐Return debate and new opportunities for constructive dialogue

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, 2022
It has been 10 years since a seminal paper in the journal Conservation Biology called for stronger leadership from the conservation community in countering the growing inappropriate use of Trap‐Neuter‐Return (TNR) as a method to control feral cat, Felis ...
