Beyond Sexual Selection: Natural Selection Related Camouflage and Thermoregulation Shape Sexual Color Dimorphism in Diploderma Lizards

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Integrating comparative spectrometry, image analysis, and thermal modeling, we reveal that (1) females optimize crypsis via background matching, (2) males prioritize high‐contrast disruptive patterning at a significant thermoregulatory cost (reduced solar heat gain), and (3) habitat‐specific monomorphism in Diploderma slowinskii underscores ecological ...

Technologies for equine welfare and performance monitoring under field conditions – Where do we stand?

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract The need for comprehensive equine welfare assessments has become particularly evident amid ongoing debates about the social licence to operate in equestrian sports. During exercise, multiple physiological systems, principally the cardiovascular, respiratory, muscular, thermoregulatory, endocrine, and locomotory systems, undergo complex ...

PreMevE Update: Forecasting Ultra‐Relativistic Electrons Inside Earth's Outer Radiation Belt

Space Weather, 2021
Energetic electrons inside Earth's Van Allen belts pose a major radiation threat to space‐borne electronics that often play vital roles in modern society. Ultra‐relativistic electrons with energies greater than or equal to two megaelectron‐volt (MeV) are

Understanding the Mechanisms of Radiation Belt Dropouts Observed by Van Allen Probes [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 2017
AbstractTo achieve a better understanding of the dominant loss mechanisms for the rapid dropouts of radiation belt electrons, three distinct radiation belt dropout events observed by Van Allen Probes are comprehensively investigated. For each event, observations of the pitch angle distribution of electron fluxes and electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC)

Radiation belt electron acceleration by chorus waves during the 17 March 2013 storm [PDF]

, 2014
Local acceleration driven by whistler-mode chorus waves is fundamentally important for accelerating seed electron populations to highly relativistic energies in the outer radiation belt.

Van Allen probes, NOAA, GOES, and ground observations of an intense EMIC wave event extending over 12 h in magnetic local time [PDF]

, 2015
Although most studies of the effects of EMIC waves on Earth's outer radiation belt have focused on events in the afternoon sector in the outer plasmasphere or plume region, strong magnetospheric compressions provide an additional stimulus for EMIC wave ...

Unity or Distinction? Herman Bavinck’s Use of John Calvin and Later Reformed Orthodoxy in His Doctrine of the Two States

International Journal of Systematic Theology, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines the doctrine of Christ’s two states of humiliation and exaltation in Herman Bavinck’s and John Calvin’s thought, with the aim of illuminating Bavinck’s use of Calvin. The article begins by exploring Calvin’s use of the two states and argues that his treatment of Christ’s descent into hell is an important though ...

Opening the Black Box of the Radiation Belt Machine Learning Model

Space Weather, 2023
Many Machine Learning (ML) systems, especially deep neural networks, are fundamentally regarded as black boxes since it is difficult to fully grasp how they function once they have been trained. Here, we tackle the issue of the interpretability of a high‐

The Inclusionary Effects of Performing Work: A Practice‐Theoretical Study of Airport Security Work

Journal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract In contrast to inclusion research that often treats work as a neutral, passive background, this study theorizes the active role of work in producing an inclusive organization. We adopt a practice‐theoretical approach that examines the accomplishment of work activities through their discourses, embodiment, and material arrangements, critically ...
