Dynamic meta-analysis
Gorm E Shackelford, Philip A Martin, Amelia SC Hood, Alec P Christie, Elena Kulinskaya, William J Sutherland
Feb 25, 2021
BACKGROUND: Meta-analysis is often used to make generalisations across all available evidence at the global scale. But how can these global generalisations be used for evidence-based decision making at the local scale, if the...
Why link diverse citizen science surveys? Widespread arboreal habits of a terrestrial amphibian revealed by mammalian tree surveys in Britain.
Terrestrial anurans, with their typically short limbs, heavy-set bodies and absent claws or toe pads are incongruous tree climbers, but even occasional arboreal locomotion could offer substantial advantages for evading predators...

Intrinsically p-biharmonic maps
For a compact Riemannian manifold $N$, a domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^m$ and for $p \in (1,\infty)$, we introduce an intrinsic version $E_p$ of the $p$-biharmonic energy functional for maps $u : \Omega \to N$. This requires...
