PM2.5 and PM10 concentrations in urban and peri-urban environments of two Pacific Island Countries by Hilly, JJ, Sinha, J, Mani, FS, Turagabeci, A, Jagals, P, Thomas, DSG, Wiggs, GFS, Morawska, L, Singh, K, Gucake, J, Ashworth, M, Mataki, M, Hiba, D, Bainivalu, D, Knibbs, LD, Stuetz, RM, Dansie, AP

“…PM10 levels were 1.5 times higher than WHO AQG in urban Honiara and 1.2 times higher in peri-urban areas. These findings highlight the urgent need for governmental action to establish robust air quality standards and long-term monitoring programs in Fiji and the Solomon Islands to mitigate health risks from poor air quality.…”

Strategic and operational issues in sustaining community-based dementia support groups: the Get Real with Meeting Centres realist evaluation part 2 by Morton, T, Evans, SB, Swift, R, Bray, J, Frost, F, Russell, C, Brooker, D, Wong, G, Hullah, N

Genetic, natal, and spatial drivers of social phenotypes in wild great tits by Satarkar, D, Sepil, I, Sheldon, BC

“…Centrality showed heritability up to 10% in one of 3 years sampled, whereas betweenness showed none, indicating modest genetic variation in individual sociability, but not group-switching tendencies. These findings suggest a small, albeit detectable, genetic basis for individual sociality but pronounced spatial effects.…”

Investigating heterogeneity across autism, ADHD, and typical development using measures of cortical thickness, surface area, cortical/subcortical volume, and structural covariance by Sadat-Nejad, Y, Vandewouw, MM, Cardy, R, Lerch, J, Taylor, MJ, Iaboni, A, Hammill, C, Syed, B, Brian, JA, Kelley, E, Ayub, M, Crosbie, J, Schachar, R, Georgiades, S, Nicolson, R, Anagnostou, E, Kushki, A

Adjustable wind selectivity in shearwaters implies knowledge of the foraging landscape by Harris, S, Bishop, C, Bond, S, Fernandes, P, Guilford, T, Lewin, P, Padget, O, Robins, P, Schneider, W, Waggitt, J, Wilmes, S, Cordes, L

“…Many seabirds, for example, are adapted to use winds to travel long distances at low energetic cost1,2,3 but also potentially benefit from targeting specific foraging hotspots.4,5,6 To investigate how an animal makes foraging decisions, given the inevitable trade-off between these factors, we tracked over 600 foraging trips of breeding Manx shearwaters (Puffinus puffinus; N = 218 individuals) using GPS accelerometers. …”

Territorial movements of African lions: can waterholes shape multiple central-place territories in a savanna ecosystem? by Dejeante, R, Loveridge, A, Macdonald, D, Madlamoto, D, Chamaille-James, S, Valeix, M

“…However, we found that both female and male lions repeatedly moved along straight paths between the waterholes located both in the core and in the periphery of their territories, potentially to defend multiple central-place territories driven by the distribution of waterholes in the landscape. These findings illustrate a case where territorial animals specifically mark feeding sites, increasing the renewal of territorial cues at these key places, potentially using long-distance territorial cues (i.e., vocalizations) to mark uncovered areas, and thereby reducing the cost of patrolling large territories. …”

Implications of contextual ambidexterity and digital platform capability on SME performance :the role of absorptive capacity as a moderator by Mohamad Rohieszan Ramdan, Nor Liza Abdullah, Nurul Ashykin Abd Aziz, Nursyazwani Mohd Fuzi, Sharon Yong Yee Ong, Nur Yuhainis Ab. Wahab

“…Contextual ambidexterity and digital platform capability can help SMEs achieve long-term success. However, achieving a balance between exploration and exploitation of contextual ambidexterity for integrating and reconfiguring organisations using digital platform capability is challenging to SMEs. …”
