Required stabilization time, short-term variability and impulsiveness of the sound pressure level to characterize the temporal composition of urban soundscapes (2010)
Journal Article
Torija Martinez, A., Ruiz, D., & Ramos-Ridao, A. (2011). Required stabilization time, short-term variability and impulsiveness of the sound pressure level to characterize the temporal composition of urban soundscapes. Applied Acoustics, 72(2-3), 89-99. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apacoust.2010.09.011

Temporal composition of urban soundscapes is a very important aspect at the time of studying their
description and perception. In urban agglomerations, environmental noise levels can vary over a wide
range as a result of the great complexity of the... Read More about Required stabilization time, short-term variability and impulsiveness of the sound pressure level to characterize the temporal composition of urban soundscapes.

A neural network based model for urban noise prediction. (2010)
Journal Article
Genaro, N., Torija Martinez, A., Ramos-Ridao, A., Requena, I., Ruiz, D., & Zamorano, M. (2010). A neural network based model for urban noise prediction. ˜The œJournal of the Acoustical Society of America (Online), 128(4), 1738-1746. https://doi.org/10.1121/1.3473692

Noise is a global problem. In 1972 the World Health Organization (WHO) classified noise as a
pollutant. Since then, most industrialized countries have enacted laws and local regulations to
prevent and reduce acoustic environmental pollution. A furt... Read More about A neural network based model for urban noise prediction..

The provision of ecosystem services along a rural-urban gradient: a case study of Greater Manchester (2010)
Presentation / Conference
Radford, K. (2010, October). The provision of ecosystem services along a rural-urban gradient: a case study of Greater Manchester. Poster presented at What about urban nature?, Stockholm, Sweden

The degradation and loss of vital ecosystem functions and services are an uncontested result of urbanisation. This has led to the need to quantify ecosystem services at a variety of temporal and spatial scales to aid in the conservation and enhanceme...

A new approach for prediction of the stability of soil and rock slopes (2010)
Journal Article
Ahangar‐Asr, A., Faramarzi, A., & Javadi, A. A. (2010). A new approach for prediction of the stability of soil and rock slopes. Engineering Computations, 27(7), 878-893. https://doi.org/10.1108/02644401011073700

Purpose
Analysis of stability of slopes has been the subject of many research works in the past decades. Prediction of stability of slopes is of great importance in many civil engineering structures including earth dams, retaining walls and trenches...

Colour polymorphism and correlated characters: Genetic mechanisms and evolution (2010)
Journal Article
McKinnon, J., & Pierotti, M. E. (2010). Colour polymorphism and correlated characters: Genetic mechanisms and evolution. Molecular Ecology, 19(23), 5101-5125. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-294X.2010.04846.x

Colour polymorphisms (CP’s) continue to be of interest to evolutionary biologists because of their general tractability, importance in studies of selection and potential role in speciation. Since some of the earliest studies of CP, it has been eviden... Read More about Colour polymorphism and correlated characters: Genetic mechanisms and evolution.

Proximity user identification using correlogram (2010)
Book Chapter

This paper represents a technique, applying user action patterns in order to distinguish between users and identify them. In this method, users’ actions sequences are
mapped to numerical sequences and each user's profile is generated using autocorre... Read More about Proximity user identification using correlogram.

Inflicting controlled nonthermal damage to subcellular structures by laser-activated gold nanoparticles (2010)
Journal Article
Krpetic, Z., Nativo, P., Sée, V., Prior, I., Brust, M., & Volk, M. (2010). Inflicting controlled nonthermal damage to subcellular structures by laser-activated gold nanoparticles. Nano Letters, 10(11), 4549-4554. https://doi.org/10.1021/nl103142t

We show that low-intensity laser irradiation of cancer cells containing endosomal gold nanoparticles leads to endosome rupture and escape of the nanoparticles into the cytosol without affecting the cells’ viability. The low light intensity of our exp... Read More about Inflicting controlled nonthermal damage to subcellular structures by laser-activated gold nanoparticles.
