Solar Ultraviolet Radiation Exposure Among Opencast Miners in Namibia with the Use of Electronic Dosimeters: A Feasibility Study.

FORRS Partners GmBH, Germany.
The lack of information on exposure of opencast mineworkers to solar ultraviolet radiation, a group I carcinogen, was addressed. The feasibility of using electronic dosimeters in the determination of exposure to solar ultraviolet radiation was investigated. The objective of the study was to determine the feasibility of measuring the occupational exposure of opencast mineworkers to solar ultraviolet radiation using electronic dosimeters.

Night skies through animals' eyes-Quantifying night-time visual scenes and light pollution as viewed by animals.

A large proportion of animal species enjoy the benefits of being active at night, and have evolved the corresponding optical and neural adaptations to cope with the challenges of low light intensities. However, over the past century electric lighting has introduced direct and indirect light pollution into the full range of terrestrial habitats, changing nocturnal animals' visual worlds dramatically. To understand how these changes affect nocturnal behavior, we here propose an animal-centered analysis method based on environmental imaging.

Article Synopsis
- Mice have a large visual field that is stabilized by the vestibular ocular reflex (VOR), allowing them to detect predators and track prey effectively.
- Researchers developed a method to digitally reconstruct the visual environment of freely moving mice during prey capture tasks, isolating visual input and analyzing head and eye movements.
- The study found that prey images consistently fall in a specific area of the stabilized visual field that minimizes motion blur, corresponding to a region with a high density of specialized retinal cells responsible for processing motion.
Daytime Exposure to Short Wavelength-Enriched Light Improves Cognitive Performance in Sleep-Restricted College-Aged Adults.

We tested the effect of daytime indoor light exposure with varying melanopic strength on cognitive performance in college-aged students who maintained an enforced nightly sleep opportunity of 7 h (i.e., nightly sleep duration no longer than 7 h) for 1 week immediately preceding the day of light exposure.
