Site‐Specific Impacts of Urbanisation on Annual Survival of a Forest Bird by Boglárka Bukor, Brett K. Sandercock, Karl L. Evans, Ivett Pipoly, Krisztina Sándor, András Liker, Gábor Seress

“…Survival probabilities decreased with bird age at both urban sites in most years, but such patterns were not detected at forest sites. Our results demonstrate that the impacts of aging on avian survival rates can diverge between urban and forest habitats, and that the demographic factors regulating urban populations can vary between locations. …”

Investigation of Thermal Behaviour of Mesocarp Fibre and Bituminous Coal with their Blends by Olutosin Olufisayo Ilori, James Tayo Bamigboye, Oluwasegun Michael Adebanjo, Akpoizokumor Jeremiah Tobi, Ayo James Kayode, Pelumi Ebenezer Akinlotan, Michael Odumu Ebegonye, Opeoluwa Damilola Sola-Adeoye

“…Although, the blending of MF with CF was found to have significant effects on the thermal behaviour of both feedstocks, due to a better pattern in the feedstocks’ behaviour at 5 oC/min heating rate, it can be deduced that this rate helps to have a better insight into the thermal behaviour of the feedstocks studied. …”
