Identifying knowledge gaps about context dependency in freshwater species invasions

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
The abiotic template of freshwater ecosystems is being altered by human activity on a global scale, often promoting the establishment of new invasive taxa and increasing the likelihood of facilitation between invaders. These positive interactions represent a substantive threat to freshwater ecosystems by promoting the establishment and persistence of ...

Bioclimatic, demographic and anthropogenic correlates of grizzly bear activity patterns in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Plasticity of diel activity rhythms may be a key element for adaptations of wildlife populations to changing environmental conditions. In the last decades, grizzly bears Ursus arctos in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem (GYE) have experienced notable environmental fluctuations, including changes in availability of food sources and severe droughts ...

A walk in the park—Identifying healthy greenspaces using scents

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
As urbanisation accelerates globally, access to nature is increasingly recognised as vital for public health and wellbeing. We captured and analysed plant‐emitted airborne ‘scent signatures’ across Oxford's urban greenspaces to assess their potential health relevance.

Relationship between food quality and body size of common vole in different habitats

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
The body size of the common vole in crop fields (alfalfa, rape, cereals) is larger than in less‐cultivated habitats (forests, clearings, set‐aside) and is not related to food quality. Abstract BACKGROUND There is a close relationship between habitat, food and demographic parameters of common vole populations.

(In)justice in Smart Cities: Barriers and an Integrative Framework for Solution Pathways From a Global Perspective

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Smart city initiatives aim for sustainability and inclusiveness, but recent evidence shows that they often lead to injustices. Although this contradiction has received growing academic attention, a comprehensive understanding of how justice is addressed within smart city practices remains limited.

In Vivo Microendoscopy in the Near‐Infrared II Window

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
NIR‐II microendoscopy with imaging wavelength extended to 1700 nm, enabling deep intestinal imaging beyond the mucosa and transrectal imaging at cellular resolution without any invasive surgery. It facilitates visualization of the relative motion of vascular networks, lymphatic drainage, and lesions in colitis models, opening new possibilities for ...

General formulation for uniform and non‐uniform high‐strength steel slender I‐section beams

open access: yesSteel Construction, EarlyView.
Abstract The Ayrton–Perry approach is the basis of Eurocode 3 rules for buckling resistance, with distinct curves and imperfection factors depending on section type, steel grade, and other parameters. For generic members – built‐up or not, uniform or not, with complex supports or not – the code allows either the general method (clause 8.3.4 of Eurocode

An enhanced analytical model for predicting shear strength in reinforced concrete beams with corroded reinforcement

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper presents an analytical model to predict the shear strength of RC beams affected by corrosion within the Level IIb framework of fib Model Code 2020. Corrosion is accounted for by (i) reducing the area of longitudinal reinforcement, (ii) degrading the yield strength of stirrups according to Imperatore's law, and (iii) reducing the ...
