Lessons learned from participatory land use planning with high-resolution remote sensing images in Tanzania: Practitioners' and participants’ perspectives
<p>Abstract</p><p>Participatory mapping (PM) solutions have become common in many sectors of society to enhance engagement of the local communities in planning processes. Especially in data scarce regions, like Africa, PM ... -
Insect herbivory dampens Subarctic birch forest C sink response to warming
Climate warming is anticipated to make high latitude ecosystems stronger C sinks through increasing plant production. This effect might, however, be dampened by insect herbivores whose damage to plants at their background, ... -
MAGIC observations of the microquasar V404 Cygni during the 2015 outburst
The microquasar V404 Cygni underwent a series of outbursts in 2015, June 15-31, during which its flux in hard X-rays (20-40 keV) reached about 40 times the Crab nebula flux. Because of the exceptional interest of the flaring ... -

A population of highly energetic transient events in the centres of active galaxies
<p>Recent all-sky surveys have led to the discovery of new types of transients. These include stars disrupted by the central supermassive black hole, and supernovae that are 10-100 times more energetic than typical ones. ... -
Undercurrents in the world economy: Evolving global investment flows in the South
<p> Foreign direct investment (FDI) to the global South has increased, but very little research has gone into analysing the diverse FDI flows between unequally related groups of countries. This paper contributes by ... -
Anthropogenic fire patterns affect niche breadth and niche overlap in sympatric songbird species
<p>The severity of wildfires increases globally, and return intervals decrease. Fires can benefit biodiversity, as post-burn early successional stages provide diverse habitats and niches for many species. How fire disturbance ... -
Movements beyond human: Ecological aesthetics and knowledges in underwater wildlife documentaries
<p> Our conceptions of underwater space are mostly based on images we have seen of it. These images, mediated through technology, have a great impact on how the environment is perceived. ... -
Complex spine deformities in young patients with severe osteogenesis imperfecta: current concepts review
The severity of osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), the associated reduced quality and quantity of collagen type I, the degree of bone fragility, ligamentous laxity, vertebral fractures and multilevel vertebral deformities all ... -

Disc and wind in black hole X-ray binary MAXI J1820+070 observed through polarized light during its 2018 outburst
We describe the first complete polarimetric data set of the entire outburst of a low-mass black hole X-ray binary system and discuss the constraints for geometry and radiative mechanisms it imposes. During the decaying ... -
Reduced ectoparasite load, body mass and blood haemolysis in Eurasian kestrels (Falco tinnunculus) along an urban-rural gradient
<p>Urbanisation is proceeding at an alarming rate which forces wildlife to either retreat from urban areas or cope with novel stressors linked to human presence and activities. For example, urban stressors like anthropogenic ... -
Using artificially generated pictures in customer-facing systems: an evaluation study with data-driven personas
We conduct two studies to evaluate the suitability of artificially generated facial pictures for use in a customer-facing system using data-driven personas. STUDY 1 investigates the quality of a sample of 1,000 artificially ... -
Habitat use of coexisting Microtus vole species under competition and predation risk
<p>Competing species and predators can alter the habitat use of animals, but both factors are rarely simultaneously controlled. We studied in experimental enclosures how closely related species, the sibling vole (<i>Microtus ... -
