Background ducking to produce esthetically pleasing audio for TV with clear speech (2019)
Presentation / Conference
audio for TV with clear speech. Presented at Audio Engineering Society Convention 146, Dublin

In audio production, background ducking facilitates speech intelligibility, while keeping the background track
enjoyable. Technical details for recommendable ducking practices are not currently documented in literature. Hence,
we first analyze comm... Read More about Background ducking to produce esthetically pleasing audio for TV with clear speech.

Assessing sustainability in housing LED urban regeneration : insights from a housing association in Northern England (2019)
Journal Article
regeneration : insights from a housing association in Northern England. Architecture_MPS, 15(2), 1-18. https://doi.org/10.14324/111.444.amps.2019v15i2.001

How far do current assessment methods allow the thorough evaluation of sustainable urban regeneration? Would it be useful, to approach the evaluation
of the environmental and social impacts of housing regeneration schemes,
by making both hidden pit... Read More about Assessing sustainability in housing LED urban regeneration : insights from a housing association in Northern England.

Variable vision in variable environments: the visual system of an invasive cichlid (Cichla monoculus) in Lake Gatun, Panama (2019)
Journal Article
Escobar-Camacho, D., Pierotti, M. E., Ferenc, V., Sharpe, D. M., Ramos, E., Martins, C., & Carleton, K. L. (2019). Variable vision in variable environments: the visual system of an invasive cichlid (Cichla monoculus) in Lake Gatun, Panama. Journal of Experimental Biology, 222(6), https://doi.org/10.1242/jeb.188300

An adaptive visual system is essential for organisms inhabiting new or changing light environments. The Panama Canal exhibits such variable environments owing to its anthropogenic origin and current human activities. Within the Panama Canal, Lake Gat...
