(1) Background: Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) is frequently reduced in children of parents with a mental illness (COPMI). Child self- and parent proxy-ratings vary with raters' characteristics and facets of HRQoL. This study aimed at analyzing risk and protective factors associated with HRQoL in COPMI, and at examining the magnitude, direc...

With the current worldwide trend of increasing individual car traffic in urban road networks, public transport has become one of the key issues for the sustainable future of transport in cities, especially when the level of automobilization is growing rapidly. Many cities are already at the capacity limit of an existing road network. Therefore, man...

Approximately 20% of primary energy consumed in the U.S. is attributed to HVAC use. Ideally, HVAC operation would be driven by actual building occupancy, but lack of reliable occupancy information often results in the use of conservative static schedules. This disparity is even more pronounced in a college campus, where the function of each space d...

The ‘abundant centre’ hypothesis states that species are more abundant at the centre of their range. However, several recent large‐scale studies have failed to find evidence for such a pattern. Here we used extensive global data of reef fishes to test the ‘abundant centre’ pattern, and to examine variation in the abundance patterns across species u...

Energy efficiency of buildings is an important measure to obtain a reduction of emissions of greenhouse gases since the building sector currently emits 40% of the total emissions in the world. A modification of control systems within commercial buildings is shown in earlier research to have a possible energy saving. The conventional control is usua...

The peregrine falcon (Falco peregrinus) and the gyrfalcon (Falco rusticolus) are top avian predators of Arctic ecosystems. Although existing monitoring efforts are well established for both species, collaboration of activities among Arctic scientists actively involved in research of large falcons in the Nearctic and Palearctic has been poorly coord...

[11C]raclopride is a well established PET tracer for the quantification of dopamine 2/3 receptors (D2/3R) in the striatum. Outside of the striatum the receptor density is up to two orders of magnitude lower. In contrast to striatal binding, the characteristics of extrastriatal [11C]raclopride binding quantification has not been thoroughly described...

Camera trapping has a wide range of research application, but, while research designs are often focused on the study of a single focal species, cameras can also record other non-target species. Occupancy modeling using by-catch data can be a valuable resource to gain information on these species maximizing the scientific effort and efficiency of wi...

Moths form an important part of Scotland’s biodiversity and an up-to-date assessment of their status is needed given their value as a diverse and species-rich taxon, with various ecosystem roles, and the known decline of moths within Britain. We use long-term citizen-science data to produce species-level trends and multi-species indicators for moth...

Central to appropriate wildlife management is an effective monitoring program. Monitoring wildlife in urban environments offers unique challenges in the form of barriers, prohibited access and crime. It also, however, provides a unique opportunity to enlist residential communities in collecting data on distribution of a number of species. Opportuni...
