Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review
VIEW, EarlyView.Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

Measurements of sub-surface bubble populations and the modelling of air-sea gas flux
, 2010 Bubbles, formed by breaking waves, play an important role in the transfer of gases between the Earth’s oceans and atmosphere and have been shown to increase the flux of gases during periods of heightened sea state.

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Seasonal variation in photoperiods, energetic demands, and reproductive constraints are expected to strongly influence bat activity at high latitudes, yet empirical evidence from boreal systems is limited. We used passive acoustic monitoring to examine spatial, temporal, and feeding activity patterns of bats along a boreal river basin in Sweden (64°N ...

Comparison of data handling techniques for modeling bat acoustic activity
Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.We deployed 169 acoustic recording units (A) across the Raystown Lake Project, Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania, USA (B). Echolocation recordings were used to evaluate alternative acoustic data handling methods and their effects on bat acoustic activity model predictions.

Pressure Pulses Generated by Wire‐Guided Discharges in Water
High Voltage, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The hydrodynamic characteristics of underwater wire‐guided discharges and their relationships with the wire length and pulsed circuit parameters are not fully understood. In this paper wire‐guided discharges using wires of length 3, 5 and 7 cm and diameter of 0.05 mm have been investigated. The energy available to the discharges was 162.3 J at

Deep blueprint: A literature review and guide to automated image classification for ecologists
Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.A practical, literature‐grounded review that gives ecologists a clear, modular workflow for deep learning image classification. With code, GUIs and a novel deep sea case study (automated deep sea biotope classification) it lowers technical barriers and provides a usable blueprint for accelerating, standardising, and scaling ecological image analysis ...

Social organization and habitat use shape the gut microbiome of a marine fish
Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.This study provides the first evidence linking habitat use—and to a lesser extent social organization—to gut microbiome composition in a wild marine fish. The results indicate that local habitat conditions are the primary driver of microbial variation, while social effects are detectable but weak.
