TLDR
The second edition of this book is unique in that it focuses on methods for making formal statistical inference from all the models in an a priori set (Multi-Model Inference).

A kinetic model for the glucose/glycine Maillard reaction pathways

TL;DR: In this article, a comprehensive kinetic model for the glucose/glycine Maillard reaction is proposed based on an approach called multiresponse kinetic modelling, which is shown to be a powerful tool in unravelling complicated reaction routes as occur in the maillard reaction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ancient DNA reveals key stages in the formation of central European mitochondrial genetic diversity.

TL;DR: The processes that shaped modern European mtDNA variation remain unclear as mentioned in this paper, and the initial peopling by Palaeolithic hunter-gatherers and the immigration of Neolithic farmers into Europe ~8000 years ago appear to have played important roles but do not explain present-day mtDNA diversity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Complexities of coastal shark movements and their implications for management

TL;DR: It is demonstrated meta-analytically the effects of increasing body size and monitoring time on home range size, which generally increases with body size, and habitat partitioning, which appears to be subdivided by benthos type, prey availability and depth.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reversion from mild cognitive impairment to normal or near-normal cognition Risk factors and prognosis

TL;DR: Survival analysis showed that the risk of retransitioning to MCI or dementia over the next 3 years was sharply elevated among those who had MCI and then improved, compared with individuals with no history of MCI.

Corticosterone, testosterone and life-history strategies of birds

TL;DR: The hypothesis that variation in titres of corticosterone (Cort) and testosterone (T) is related to life-history traits of avian species is examined to suggest that Cort0, MaxCort and T modulate key vertebrate life- history responses to the environment.
