• Dinner and a show : the role of male copulatory courtship song and female blood-feeding in the reproductive success of Lutzomyia longipalpis from Lapinha, Brazil 

  Vigoder, Felipe M.; Araki, Alejandra S.; de Carvalho, Antonio Bernardo; Brazil, Reginaldo P.; Ritchie, Michael G. (2020-11) - Journal article

  Lutzomyia longipalpis is the main vector of visceral Leishmaniasis in the Americas and is composed of a species complex. Males of this sand-fly produce acoustic signals during copulation and different patterns are observed ...

• Enhancing exciton diffusion length provides new opportunities for organic photovoltaics 

  Sajjad, Muhammad T.; Ruseckas, Arvydas; Samuel, Ifor David William (2020-08-05) - Journal item

  Organic semiconductors can potentially revolutionize solar cell technology by offering very thin, lightweight, and flexible modules for outdoor and indoor power generation. Light absorption in organic semiconductors generates ...

• Changes in the movement and calling behavior of minke whales (Balaenoptera acutorostrata) in response to navy training 

  Durbach, Ian N.; Harris, Catriona M.; Martin, Cameron; Helble, Tyler A.; Henderson, E. Elizabeth; Ierley, Glenn; Thomas, Len; Martin, Stephen W. (2021-07-09) - Journal article

  Many marine mammals rely on sound for foraging, maintaining group cohesion, navigation, finding mates, and avoiding predators. These behaviors are potentially disrupted by anthropogenic noise. Behavioral responses to sonar ...

• Symbiotic and antagonistic disease dynamics on clustered networks using bond percolation 

  Mann, Peter Stephen; Smith, V.A.; Mitchell, John B. O.; Dobson, Simon Andrew (2021-08-03) - Journal article

  In this paper we introduce a description of the equilibrium state of a bond percolation process on random graphs using the exact method of generating functions. This allows us to find the expected size of the giant connected ...

• Exact formula for bond percolation on cliques 

  Mann, Peter Stephen; Smith, V.A.; Mitchell, John B. O.; Jefferson, Christopher Anthony; Dobson, Simon Andrew (2021-08-04) - Journal article

  We present exact solutions for the size of the giant connected component of complex networks composed of cliques following bond percolation. We use our theoretical result to find the location of the percolation threshold ...
