Monitoring carnivore populations at the landscape scale: occupancy modelling of tigers from sign surveys.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a spatially replicated survey to estimate habitat occupancy for a tiger Panthera tigris metapopulation across a c. 38,000-km2 landscape in India.

The Soft Gamma-Ray Spectral Variability of Cygnus X-1

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used observations of Cyg X-1 from the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory and BeppoSAX to study the variation in the MeV γ-ray emission between the hard and soft spectral states, using spectra that cover the energy range from 20 keV up to 10 MeV.

Analysis of clinical complication data for radiation hepatitis using a parallel architecture model

TL;DR: The observed radiation hepatitis complications show a threshold effect that can be described well with a parallel architecture model, however, additional independent studies are required to better determine the parameters defining the functional reserve distribution and subunit radiosensitivity.

Quantitation of microRNAs using a modified Invader assay

TL;DR: The Invader miRNA assay, which can be performed in unfractionated detergent lysates, uses fluorescence detection in microtiter plates and requires only 2-3 h incubation time, allowing for parallel analysis of multiple samples in high-throughput screening analyses.

Development of a sensor for temperature and water concentration in combustion gases using a single tunable diode laser

TL;DR: In this article, the water vapour spectrum in the 1-2 µm near-infrared region is systematically analyzed to find the best absorption transitions for sensitive measurement of H2O concentration and temperature in combustion environments using a single tunable diode laser with typical distributed feedback single-mode scanning range (1 cm−1).
