She more than he: gender bias supports the empathic nature of yawn contagion in Homo sapiens
(2016)Psychological clinical and neurobiological findings endorse that empathic abilities are more developed in women than in men. Because there is growing evidence that yawn contagion is an empathy-based phenomenon, we expect ... -
Short and long term consequences of developmental saline stress
(2016)Secondary salinization has been identified as a major stressor to amphibians. Exposure to elevated salinity necessitates physiological adjustments and biochemical changes that may be energetically demanding. As such, ... -
Shrinking fish: comparisons of prehistoric and contemporary salmonids indicate decreasing size at age across millennia
(The Royal Society, 2014)A comparison of Upper Palaeolithic and contemporary salmonid vertebrae from the Iberian Peninsula indicates that there has been a significant decrease in the mean body size for a given age among Atlantic salmon and brown ... -
Signalling with a cryptic trait
(2016)Sexual signals often compromise camouflage because of their conspicuousness. Pigmentation patterns, on the contrary, aid in camouflage. It was hypothesized that a particular type of pattern—barred plumage in birds, whereby ... -
Silver spoon effects on plumage quality in a passerine bird
(2015)A silver spoon effect means that individuals who develop under favourable circumstances enjoy a fitness or performance advantage later in life. While there is large empirical support for silver spoon effects acting on ... -
Simple graphmodels of information spread in finite populations
(The Royal Society, 2015)We consider several classes of simple graphs as potential models for information diffusion in a structured population. These include biases cycles, dual circular flows, partial bipartite graphs and what we call ‘single-link’ ... -
Simulated annealing approach to vascular structure with application to the coronary arteries
(2016)Department of Physical Sciences, The Open University, Milton Keynes MK7 6AA, UK 2 Department of Cardiovascular Sciences, University of Leicester, Leicester LE1 5WW, UK Do the complex processes of angiogenesis during organism ... -
Simulating droplet motion on virtual leaf surfaces
(The Royal Society, 2015)A curvilinear thin film model is used to simulate the motion of droplets on a virtual leaf surface, with a view to better understand the retention of agricultural sprays on plants. The governing model, adapted from Royet ... -
Simultaneous DNA-based diet analysis of breeding, non-breeding and chick Adélie penguins
(2016)As central place foragers, breeding penguins are restricted in foraging range by the need to return to the colony to feed chicks. Furthermore, breeding birds must balance energetic gain from self-feeding with the costs of ... -

Small Wind Turbine Power Controllers
(INTECH Open Access Publisher, 2010)Almost all wind energy systems require a controller to prevent damage to the turbine and the load. With advances in power electronics and microcontrollers, inexpensive yet sophisticated power controllers can be produced ... -
Smooth enlargement of human standing sway by instability due toweak reaction floor and noise
(2016)Human quiet standing is accompanied by body sway. The amplitude of this body sway is known to be larger than would be predicted from simple noise effects, and sway characteristics are changed by neurological disorders. ... -
Snort 2.9.8.x on Ubuntu 12, 14, and 15 with Barnyard2, PulledPork, and Snorby
(2015)This guide will walk you through installing Snort as a NIDS (network intrusion detection system), with three pieces of additional software to improve the functionality of Snort. This guide is written with the Snort host ... -
Social conformity despite individual preferences for distinctiveness
(2015)We demonstrate that individual behaviours directed at the attainment of distinctiveness can in fact produce complete social conformity. We thus offer an unexpected generative mechanism for this central social phenomenon. ... -
Social deprivation affects cooperative predator inspection in a cichlid fish
(The Royal Society, 2015)The social environment individuals are exposed to during ontogeny shapes social skills and social competence in group-living animals. Consequently, social deprivation has serious effects on behaviour and development in ... -
Social dominance modulates eavesdropping in zebrafish
(The Royal Society, 2015)Group living animals may eavesdrop on signalling interactions between conspecifics and integrate it with their own past social experience in order to optimize the use of relevant information from others. However, little ... -
Social familiarity affects Comparative phylogenetic analyses uncover the ancient roots of Indo European folktales
(2016)Ancient population expansions and dispersals often leave enduring signatures in the cultural traditions of their descendants, as well as in their genes and languages. The international folktale record has long been regarded ...
