Effects of parachute science on local research capacity 降落伞科学对当地研究能力的影响

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Strengthening research capacity is essential to address the global biodiversity crisis. Yet, parachute science often undermines this goal, and its prevalence, costs, and benefits are unclear. We analyzed 13,502 publications on primate research that we extracted from Scopus (1960–2022) to evaluate the effects of parachute science on local ...

Density by Design: Evaluating Transit Hubs for Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) in an Emerging Indonesian Metropolis

open access: yesCivil Engineering Dimension
Rapid urbanization in Indonesian cities has increased interest in Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) as a strategy to promote compact, mixed-use, and transit-supportive urban forms.

Prioritizing bat roosts for conservation with a global multicriteria bat roost priority index based on community science

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Prioritization in conservation is crucial for the development of efficient and effective decision‐making policies. For many decades, the importance of some species and their habitats has been assessed and applied in conservation legislation, but bats and their diurnal roosts have ofbeen overlooked.

Comparison of Carotid‐Femoral and Brachial‐Ankle Pulse‐Wave Velocity in Association With Target Organ Damage in the Community‐Dwelling Elderly Chinese: The Northern Shanghai Study

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2017
BackgroundCarotid‐femoral pulse‐wave velocity (cf‐PWV) and brachial‐ankle PWV (ba‐PWV) are the 2 most frequently applied PWV measurements. However, little is known about the comparison of hypertensive target organ damage (TOD) with cf‐PWV and ba‐PWV ...

Subtypes of masked hypertension and target organ damage in untreated outpatients

open access: yesBlood Pressure, 2020
Purpose: Masked hypertension (MHT) is characterised as an office normotension in the presence of out-of-office hypertension, and can be further categorised as isolated daytime (dMHT), night-time (nMHT) or day-night MHT (dnMHT) according to the time when ...

Estimation of fuel inefficiencies due to early descents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In this project, early descents have been modeled as a combination of two stages. Firstly, a constant - vertical - speed segment beginning at a certain distance, k , before the optimal top of descent (TOD); that eventually intercepts the secon d stage: a

Generalized modulational instability in multimode fibers: wideband multimode parametric amplification

open access: yes, 2015
In this paper intermodal modulational instability (IM-MI) is analyzed in a multimode fiber where several spatial and polarization modes propagate. The coupled nonlinear Schr\"{o}dinger equations describing the modal evolution in the fiber are linearized ...

Differences in characteristics between naturalized threatened plants and other threatened plants

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Many non‐native plant species introduced by humans have become naturalized. At the same time many species are threatened in their native range. However, the number of plant species threatened in their native range that are naturalized elsewhere remains unknown.

Evaluating the empirical basis for threat attribution in the IUCN Red List

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding the impacts of different threats on species is key to successful conservation interventions and policies. The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) assesses threats to species, and the organization's Red List of Threatened Species is a key conservation tool.
