Identification of Important Sea Turtle Areas (ITAs) for hawksbill turtles in the Arabian Region by Pilcher, Nicolas J.

“…Overall, Gulf turtles spent 68% of the time in foraging ground with home ranges of 40–60km2 and small core areas of 6km2. Adult female turtles from Oman were significantly larger than Gulf turtles by ~11cm x¯=81.4CCL and spent 83% of their time foraging in smaller home ranges with even smaller core areas (~3km2), likely due to better habitat quality and food availability. …”

Investigating solar harvesting in various greenhouse designs with semi-transparent PV panels on roofs and sidewalls by Mohammadreza Gholami (17032317)

“…The sensitivity analysis shows that STPV efficiency is the most influential parameters affecting annual output, while ground reflectivity and roof tilt have a smaller impact. The study emphasizes that, for regions like Doha, Qatar, maximizing STPV power output involves expanding south-facing areas and harnessing the potential of wall-mounted panels.…”

The effect of Hydrogen Peroxide treatments on dental enamel porosity and protein structure and its long-term implications on tooth hardness and optical properties by Ovidiu, Ciobanu

“…BET analysis revealed that HP treatment increased enamel surface area and reduced its average pore size. CD and DLS analyses showed that proteins from HP-treated teeth mostly adopted a non-random conformation and had smaller average protein sizes compared to the control. …”

Performance evaluation of interrupted and hybrid channel heat sinks for a triple junction high concentrator photovoltaic cell by Muhammad Usman Sajid (14778232)

“…<p>High concentrator photovoltaic (HCPV) systems are designed to minimize the use of semiconductor materials by concentrating sunlight onto a smaller cell area. However, managing the excess heat generated during this concentration is a significant challenge, as it can affect the efficiency and lifespan of the HCPV cells. …”

Promising approaches for controlled pulmonary drug delivery by Nature Research (16552612)

“…Inhaled drugs are also degraded by enzymes in the lungs, and absorbed rapidly owing to the lungs’ large surface area. Micro- and nanoparticles-based drug delivery systems could potentially improve the delivery of inhaled drugs significantly, because they can be designed in specific shapes and sizes, and with certain other properties that optimize their bioavailability. …”

Do near-bedtime usage of smartphones and problematic internet usage really impact sleep? A study based on objectively recorded usage data by Aftab Alam (5158601)

“…</p><h3> Results</h3><p dir="ltr">The multivariate linear regression showed that the increase in PIU (β = −0.231, p < 0.001) and smartphone usage two hours before sleep (β = −0.246, p < 0.001) led to decrease in sleep duration. Regarding sleep distraction, multivariate linear regression analysis revealed that two hours before sleep was a significant and positive predictor of sleep distraction (β = 0.197, p = 0.003), whereas PIU was not significant. …”
