The Influence of Elevated Temperature on Time‐Dependent Compaction Creep in Bleursville Sandstone
Abstract The inelastic compaction of sandstone in the upper crust typically occurs at depths where temperatures range from approximately 50°C $50{}^{\circ}\mathrm{C}$ to 150°C $150{}^{\circ}\mathrm{C}$. Previous experimental studies have shown that even this modest temperature increase can reduce the yield stress required to initiate inelastic ...

Abstract Conservation of marine ecosystems can be improved through a better understanding of ecosystem functioning, particularly the cryptic underwater behaviours and interactions of marine predators. Image‐based bio‐logging devices (including images, videos and active acoustic) are increasingly used to monitor wildlife movements, foraging behaviours ...

ABSTRACT While daytime napping could support recovery in athletes, poorly timed or prolonged naps may interfere with nighttime sleep. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the effect of two different, well‐timed nap opportunity durations, 25 and 90 min, on subsequent objectively measured nighttime sleep in student athletes.

ABSTRACT Sleep, sedentary behaviour, and physical activity (PA) are important for brain health. Spending more time in one behaviour always substitutes time in another, which may affect associations and should be considered in prevention strategies. We assessed how substitutions of sleep, sedentary behaviour, and PA are associated with incident dementia
