Bird Evolution
Daniel J Field
Feb 22, 2019
New fossils help pinpoint when some birds started relying on a seed-based diet and reveal that disparate bill shapes evolved repeatedly throughout bird evolutionary history.

Rigid analytic quantum groups and quantum Arens-Michael envelopes
Nicolas Dupré
Aug 19, 2019
We introduce a rigid analytification of the quantized coordinate algebra of a semisimple algebraic group and a quantized Arens-Michael envelope of the enveloping algebra of the corresponding Lie algebra, working over a...

Organocatalytic Enantioselective Sulfa-Michael Additions to α,β-Unsaturated Diazoketones
Patricia B Momo, Eduardo F Mizobuchi, Radell Echemendía, Isabel Baddeley, Matthew N Grayson, Antonio C B Burtoloso
Mar 04, 2022
Enantioselective sulfa-Michael additions to α,β unsaturated diazocarbonyl compounds have been developed. Quinine-derived squaramide was found to be the best catalyst to promote C-S bond formation in a highly stereoselective...

Simulation-based reconstruction of global bird migration over the past 50,000 years.
Marius Somveille, Martin Wikelski, Robert M Beyer, Ana S L Rodrigues, Andrea Manica, Walter Jetz
Mar 25, 2020
Migration is a widespread response of birds to seasonally varying climates. As seasonality is particularly pronounced during interglacial periods, this raises the question of the significance of bird migration during past...

English Professor John Bird Discovers Never-Before-Published Mark Twain Children's Story
Winthrop University
Jan 01, 0001
Called "The Purloining of Prince Oleomargarine," it is the story of a young boy who eats a flower sprouted by a magical seed and gains the ability to talk to animals. Bird said he spotted Twain's notes on the story while...

Density Functional Theory Transition-State Modeling for the Prediction of Ames Mutagenicity in 1,4 Michael Acceptors
Assessing the safety of new chemicals, without introducing the need for animal testing, is a task of great importance. The Ames test, a widely used bioassay to assess mutagenicity, can be an expensive, wasteful process with...
Riparian reserves help protect forest bird communities in oil palm dominated landscapes
Conversion of forest to oil palm agriculture is a significant and ongoing threat to tropical biodiversity. Despite this, little is known about the value of riparian reserves in oil palm and how these conservation set‐asides...

Mortality cost of sex-specific parasitism in wild bird populations
Jose O. Valdebenito, András Liker, Naerhulan Halimubieke, Jordi Figuerola, Tamas Szekely
Dec 02, 2020
Sex-specific mortality is frequent in animals although the causes of different male versus female mortalities remain poorly understood. Parasitism is ubiquitous in nature with widespread detrimental effects to hosts, making...
Eliminating Transition State Calculations for Faster and More Accurate Reactivity Prediction in Sulfa-Michael Additions Relevant to Human Health and the Environment
Fast and accurate computational approaches to predicting reactivity in sulfa-Michael additions are required for high-throughput screening in toxicology (e.g., predicting excess aquatic toxicity and skin sensitization), chemical...

On the maintenance of bird song dialects
Many bird species, especially song birds but also for instance some
hummingbirds and parrots, have noted dialects. By this we mean that locally a particular song is sung by the majority of the birds, but that neighbouring...

Microfiltration of high concentration black tea streams for haze removal using polymeric membranes
Black tea used for ready-to-drink beverages suffers from an inherent haze problem affecting the appeal of products in terms of colour and appearance; the effect also diminishes health-giving properties. Microfiltration of black...
Gum arabic fractionation using synthetic membranes
The fractionation of 2 wt% gum arabic using 0.1, 0.5 and 0.8 μm polysulfone (PS) flat sheet membranes is investigated. Fluxes of between 35 and 80 L m−2 h−1 were achieved during diafiltration experiments at cross-flow velocities...
