Captive-born collared peccaries learning about their predators : lessons learnt but not remembered (2019)
Journal Article
de Faria, C., de Souza Sá, F., Lovenstain Costa, D., da Silva, M., da Silva, B., Young, R., & de Azevedo, C. (2020). Captive-born collared peccaries learning about their predators : lessons learnt but not remembered. Behavioural Processes, 171, 104031. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.beproc.2019.104031

Captive-born animals frequently lose their anti-predatory abilities due to the absence of encounters with their predators, but these abilities can be regained through specific training. Anti-predator training can, thus, enhance the success of reintro... Read More about Captive-born collared peccaries learning about their predators : lessons learnt but not remembered.

Spatial planning and sustainable cities and communities (2019)
Book Chapter
Trillo, C. (2019). Spatial planning and sustainable cities and communities. In W. Leal Filho, A. Azul, L. Brandli L., P. Özuyar, & T. Wall (Eds.), Sustainable Cities and Communities. Encyclopedia of the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Springer, Cham. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-71061-7_72-1

Spatial planning as technical activity of supporting spatial decision-making is deeply embedded in the history of mankind. However, this specific terminology came to fore in the planning disciplinary field in the late 1980s, replacing a plethora of ter...

Preferred levels for background ducking to produce esthetically pleasing audio for TV with clear speech (2019)
Journal Article
Torcoli, M., Freke-Morin, A., Paulus, J., Simon, C., & Shirley, B. (2019). Preferred levels for background ducking to produce esthetically pleasing audio for TV with clear speech. Journal of the Audio Engineering Society, 67(12), 1003-1011. https://doi.org/10.17743/jaes.2019.0052

In audio production, background ducking facilitates speech intelligibility while allowing the background to fulfill its purpose, e.g., to create ambience, set the mood, or convey semantic cues. Technical details for recommended ducking practices are... Read More about Preferred levels for background ducking to produce esthetically pleasing audio for TV with clear speech.

Learning from accidents : machine learning for safety at railway stations (2019)
Journal Article
Alawad, H., Kaewunruen, S., & An, M. (2020). Learning from accidents : machine learning for safety at railway stations. IEEE Access, 8(1), 633-648. https://doi.org/10.1109/ACCESS.2019.2962072

In railway systems, station safety is a critical aspect of the overall structure, and yet, accidents at stations still occur. It is time to learn from these errors and improve conventional methods by utilizing the latest technology, such as machine l...

Environmental drivers of sediment carbon storage in temperate seagrass meadows (2019)
Journal Article
Do Amaral Camara Lima, M., Ward, R., & Joyce, C. (2020). Environmental drivers of sediment carbon storage in temperate seagrass meadows. Hydrobiologia, 847, 1773-1792. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10750-019-04153-5

Seagrass meadows are productive ecosystems that contribute to climate change mitigation by accumulating ‘Blue Carbon’ in their plant biomass and sediments. However, there is wide variation in reported sediment carbon stocks (Cstocks) across different... Read More about Environmental drivers of sediment carbon storage in temperate seagrass meadows.
