Observations of anisotropic paramagnetic and diamagnetic susceptibility in the primate brain Open
Bulk magnetic susceptibility in the brain white matter is known to be diamagnetic and anisotropic due to the ordered myelin lipids. While paramagnetic iron is widely present in the brain, it is typically not considered to contribute to ani…

Health Effects of Patagial Wing Tags in Red Kites (Milvus milvus) in the UK Open
Patagial wing tags are commonly used for identification of Red Kites (Milvus milvus) for postrelease monitoring, as they are easy to apply, affordable, permanent, and are apparently safe. The Red Kite was successfully reintroduced in the U…

The history, science and preliminary results from the reintroduction of the Chequered Skipper, Carterocephalus palaemon into Rockingham Forest, England Open
Habitat loss and fragmentation have caused declines in the abundance and distribution of butterflies, particularly habitat specialists. The Chequered Skipper, Carterocephalus palaemon , has been extinct in England since 1976 after declinin…
