Addressing environmental misperceptions for nature recovery

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract A poorly understood and systemic challenge to global conservation agreements is shifting baseline syndrome (SBS), wherein people misperceive the extent to which nature has changed. This can diminish societal expectations for nature recovery. We broadened the conceptual framing of SBS beyond the more common elements of nature loss to include ...

Board Size in Context: A Meta‐Analysis on the Relationship Between Board Size and Firm Performance

Corporate Governance: An International Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Research Question/Issue Research presents mixed findings on the relationship between board size and firm performance. Acknowledging that larger boards simultaneously offer increased resources and face heightened coordination demands, we propose that the ongoing ambiguity in this relationship stems from the context‐dependent nature of how ...

Locating nests of endangered bumble bees: Lessons from field trials in northern Germany

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Tracking bumble bees to find their nests using coloured strips of paper stuck to their thorax proved to be the most suitable method, while radio transponders were too heavy. Tracking times of up to 2 h and distances of up to 800 m were achieved with strips of pink craft tissue paper.

Universal deformation rings and dihedral defect groups

, 2006
Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 2, and let W be the ring of infinite Witt vectors over k. Suppose G is a finite group, and B is a block of kG with dihedral defect group D which is Morita equivalent to the principal 2-modular ...

Floral resource strips enhance parasitoid abundance and diversity in apple orchards and promote agroecological advances in a South African biosphere reserve

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Floral resource strips within apple orchards increased parasitoid abundance and influenced community composition, enhancing local biodiversity in the Kogelberg Biosphere Reserve's transition zone. Ruderal and natural fynbos habitats supported higher parasitoid richness and abundance, emphasising the importance of conserving semi‐natural habitats ...

Witt vectors as a polynomial functor

, 2017
For every commutative ring $A$, one has a functorial commutative ring $W(A)$ of $p$-typical Witt vectors of $A$, an iterated extension of $A$ by itself. If $A$ is not commutative, it has been known since the pioneering work of L.

Comparisons between two adapted versions of the Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test in Brazilian adults: Effects of age and education

Journal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Reassessments with the Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test (RAVLT) may generate learning effects, compromising the validity of the results. In Brazil, there are still no comparative studies between adapted versions of the test in healthy individuals.

Evaluating Large Language Model‐Assisted Emergency Triage: A Comparison of Acuity Assessments by GPT‐4 and Medical Experts

Journal of Clinical Nursing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To evaluate the accuracy of the Emergency Severity Index (ESI) assignments by GPT‐4, a large language model (LLM), compared to senior emergency department (ED) nurses and physicians. Method An observational study of 100 consecutive adult ED patients was conducted. ESI scores assigned by GPT‐4, triage nurses, and by a senior clinician. Both

Projective Modules over Witt Rings

Journal of Algebra, 1996
Let \(R\) denote an abstract Witt ring (in the sense of Marshall). The main result of the paper states that every finitely generated projective \(R\)-module is isomorphic to a direct sum of a free \(R\)-module and an invertible ideal of \(R\). (A similar result is known for Dedekind domains and for certain commutative Noetherian rings).
