The Louder, the Longer: Object Length Perception Is Influenced by Loudness, but Not by Pitch

open access: yesVision, 2019
Sound by itself can be a reliable source of information about an object’s size. For instance, we are able to estimate the size of objects merely on the basis of the sound they make when falling on the floor.

Adaptive colour change and background choice behaviour in peppered moth caterpillars is mediated by extraocular photoreception

open access: yes, 2019
Light sensing by tissues distinct from the eye occurs in diverse animal groups, enabling circadian control and phototactic behaviour. Extraocular photoreceptors may also facilitate rapid colour change in cephalopods and lizards, but little is known about

Experimental investigations and design of precast concrete‐filled steel corrugated sheet slender columns with intermediate connection

open access: yesStructural Concrete, Volume 27, Issue 1, Page 193-210, February 2026.
Abstract Concrete‐filled steel corrugated sheet (CFSCS) offers confinement to the core concrete while the outer galvanized corrugated steel sheet (GCSS) offers excellent corrosion resistance. Application of precast multiple CFSCS columns connected through high‐performance concrete (HPC) in constructing a slender column offers ease of construction while

EFFECT OF MATERIAL, ADHESIVE AND LOADING ON THE STIFFNESS OF WOODEN DOWEL JOINTS

open access: yesWood Research, 2023
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of selected parameters, such as type of loading (compression and tension), the wooden dowel species, and the adhesives type on the joint stiffness. Beech, oak, and Scots pine woods were used as wooden dowel material, and polyvinylacetate (PVAc) and polyurethane (PUR) adhesives were used as ...

Micrography and XRF Techniques to Investigate Protohistoric Gold Artifacts: The Case of Roca Vecchia (Lecce, Italy)

open access: yesArchaeometry, Volume 68, Issue 1, Page 51-63, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Protohistoric gold findings from the archaeological site of Roca Vecchia (Melendugno, Lecce, Italy) are analyzed involving micrography and stratified XRF analysis. This exploitation allows to get a deeper insight into ancient gold manufacturing and wear processes adopted in the Southern Italian FBA.

Inverse effects of soil moisture and litter quality on litter decomposition along a gradient from hyper‐arid to temperate climate

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 1, January 2026.
We hypothesized that litter decomposition (H1) and litter quality (H2) increase with increasing soil humidity, therefore litter from the wetter sites to have the highest litter quality and decompose fastest in each site, and fastest on the wet end of the gradient (H3).

Reducing bias in shorebird nest survival rates across a large Arctic landscape

open access: yesIbis, Volume 168, Issue 1, Page 25-41, January 2026.
Reproductive success is a key demographic parameter that can have profound impacts on a species' population trend. Indeed, poor reproductive success has been suggested as a contributing factor to the declines observed in many species of birds, including Arctic‐breeding shorebirds.
