Ontogeny of foraging behaviour in an opportunistic gull inhabiting urban marine ecosystems

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Urbanization affects ecosystems by reducing biodiversity and displacing species from native habitats. While some suffer, others, like urban wildlife, adapt through innovative feeding and behaviours that improve their fitness in human‐altered settings. Despite research on wildlife in urban areas, the development of foraging behaviour in urban species is

Introduction : “all is not well”\ud \ud

open access: yes, 2013
In the years since his death from alcohol poisoning, San Francisco Renaissance poet Jack Spicer (1925-1965) has gradually come to be recognized as one of most intriguing, demanding, and rewarding of the so-called 'New American Poetry' poets who were first published in Donald Allen's historic anthology of that name.\ud This is the first full-length ...

Home range shifts and habitat selection across life‐history stages in grey partridges

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Understanding how birds use space throughout the year is essential for effective conservation planning, even in resident species. We investigated seasonal space use in a Central European population of grey partridges Perdix perdix, a rapidly declining residential farmland bird.

Mindfulness and meditation in\ud the workplace: An acceptance\ud and commitment therapy\ud approach

open access: yes, 2016
There is a wide-ranging and growing body of evidence that mental health and\ud behavioral effectiveness are influenced more by how people interact with their\ud thoughts and feelings than by their form (e.g., how negative they are) or frequency.\ud Research has demonstrated this key finding in a wide range of areas.\ud For example, in chronic pain ...

AI‐enabled bumpless transfer control strategy for legged robot with hybrid energy storage system

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Designing Hybrid energy storage system (HESS) for a legged robot is significant to improve the motion performance and energy efficiency of the robot. However, switching between the driving mode and regenerative braking mode in the HESS may generate a torque bump, which has brought significant challenges to the stability of the robot locomotion.

Identifying\ud Perspectives on Life\ud Story Work with\ud Looked-after and\ud Adopted Children

open access: yes, 2015
Life story work is a widely used intervention in adoption and fostering. Despite being\ud recommended for use with all children in the care system, the outcomes are underresearched.\ud This review systematically evaluates the scope of the current research into life\ud story work in the looked-after population, investigating the processes used in ...

Host‐mediated filtering and interspecific associations structure strongyle parasite communities in Sable Island horses

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Using individual‐level nemabiome metabarcoding of 3147 samples from 916 horses on Sable Island over 10 years, we generate the largest dataset of its kind to date. This unprecedented scale enables a rare test of the processes structuring parasite communities in a natural system, revealing dominant host‐mediated filtering and predominantly positive ...
