Understanding the habitat selection and natural history of the spider Deinopis cf. cylindracea (Deinopidae).

Habitat choice is fundamental for an animal foraging, defense, and reproduction. Ogre-faced spiders are known for their unusual morphology, natural history, and rarity. They are sit-and-wait predators that build net-like webs that are manipulated by spiders and thrown at their prey.

Minimum sample size for estimating the Net Promoter Score under a Bayesian approach.

At some moment in our lives, we are probably faced with the following question: How likely is it that you would recommend [company X] to a friend or colleague?. This question is related to the Net Promoter Score (NPS), a simple measure used by several companies as indicator of customer loyalty. Even though it is a well-known measure in the business world, studies that address the statistical properties or the sample size determination problem related to this measure are still scarce.

Global-scale random bottom pressure fluctuations from oceanic intrinsic variability.

Intrinsic processes such as mesoscale turbulence have recently been proved as important as atmospheric variability in causing variations in ocean bottom pressure (). Intrinsic processes are also known to generate random variability on scales larger than the mesoscale through inverse energy cascades or large-scale baroclinic instability. Here, model analyses reveal a truly global-scale, intrinsic mode of variability at monthly time scales that relies on a different mechanism.

Tailoring SnO Defect States and Structure: Reviewing Bottom-Up Approaches to Control Size, Morphology, Electronic and Electrochemical Properties for Application in Batteries.

Tin oxide (SnO) is a versatile n-type semiconductor with a wide bandgap of 3.6 eV that varies as a function of its polymorph, i.e.
