Rewilding as a new concept for restoration ecology and nature conservation
Creators: name: Hein, Elisabeth
Publisher: name: Technical University of Munich
Year: 2021
Subjects: review, rewilding, restoration, nature conservation

description: Today’s Era of the Anthropocene (Crutzen, 2002) is characterised by quick environmental changes and biodiversity decline due to human alteration of the Earth’s ecosystems. Restoration ecology and nature conservation practices are in need of new ideas in order to mitigate the ongoing environmental change. The new concept of rewilding will be introduced and its fundamental principles and theoretical background will be discussed in the context of the present global challenges. Rewilding focuses on the restoration of self-sustaining, dynamic ecosystem processes. It challenges the more human-controlled approaches to nature conservation and restoration, embracing ecological uncertainty rather than fearing it, aiming for functioning processes as opposed to a certain ecosystem state. Despite its novelty, the rewilding concept has been interpreted in different ways over time, depending on the ecological and spatial context. Four rewilding approaches will be distinguished along with their underlying ecological background: passive rewilding, Pleistocene rewilding, trophic rewilding and urban rewilding. As a novel concept, rewilding faces a variety of challenges. Ecological uncertainty and little scientific knowledge expose the experimental character of rewilding, which is difficult to handle in a time where a lot of species face extinction. Additionally, its unpredictability and unconventionality display rewilding as a concept that interferes with, rather than fits under, current environmental policies. However, this might offer the opportunity to re-think and improve future legislation. Besides practical challenges, uncertainty even extends to the definition of rewilding. This has led to a theoretical debate within the scientific community about the necessity of defining the term clearly. Furthermore, it will be discussed whether and how rewilding ecosystems could be beneficial for public and private economies as well as how they can change the relationship between people and nature. Despite all critique and doubts, rewilding is already happening. Its flexibility makes it a promising and engaging concept for restoration ecology and nature conservation in a time of much pessimism. In that rewilding considers nature’s as well as human needs, it provides a pathway to positively approach the fast-changing environmental conditions of our time.
Interpretation of the BRITE oscillation data of the hybrid pulsator $ν$ Eridani: a call for the modification of stellar opacities

description: The analysis of the BRITE oscillation spectrum of the main sequence early B-type star $ν$ Eridani is presented. Only models with the modified mean opacity profile can account for the observed frequency ranges as well as for the values of some individual frequencies. The number of the $κ$ modified seismic models is constrained by the nonadiabatic parameter $f$, which is very sensitive to the opacity changes in the subphotospheric layers where the pulsations are driven. We present an example of the model that satisfies all the above conditions. It seems that the OPLIB opacities are preferred over those from the OPAL and OP projects. Moreover, we discuss additional consequences of the opacity modification, namely, an enhancement of the efficiency of convection in the Z-bump as well as an occurrence of close radial modes which is a kind of avoided-crossing phenomenon common for nonradial modes in standard main sequence models.

Dark matter statistics for large galaxy catalogs: power spectra and covariance matrices

description: Upcoming and existing large-scale surveys of galaxies require accurate theoretical predictions of the dark matter clustering statistics for thousands of mock galaxy catalogs. We demonstrate that this goal can be achieve with our new Parallel Particle-Mesh (PM) Nbody code (PPM-GLAM) at a very low computational cost. We run about 15,000 simulations with ~2 billion particles that provide ~1% accuracy of the dark matter power spectra P(k) for wave-numbers up to k~ 1h/Mpc. Using this large data-set we study the power spectrum covariance matrix, the stepping stone for producing mock catalogs. In contrast to many previous analytical and numerical results, we find that the covariance matrix normalised to the power spectrum C(k,k')/P(k)P(k') has a complex structure of non-diagonal components. It has an upturn at small k, followed by a minimum at k=0.1-0.2h/Mpc. It also has a maximum at k=0.5-0.6h/Mpc. The normalised covariance matrix strongly evolves with redshift: C(k,k')~delta(t)^alpha P(k)P(k'), where delta is the linear growth factor and alpha ~ 1-1.25, which indicates that the covariance matrix depends on cosmological parameters. We also show that waves longer than 1Gpc have very little impact on the power spectrum and covariance matrix. This significantly reduces the computational costs and complexity of theoretical predictions: relatively small volume ~ (1Gpc)^3 simulations capture the necessary properties of dark matter clustering statistics. All the power spectra obtained from many thousands of our simulations are publicly available.

description: The superconducting energy gap in $\rm DyNi_2B_2C$ has been investigated using a point-contact technique based on the Andreev reflection from a normal (N)-superconductor (S) boundary, where N is Ag. The observed differential resistance $dV/dI$ is well described by the Blonder-Tinkham-Klapwijk (BTK) theory based on the BSC density of states with zero broadening parameter. Typically, the intensity of the gap structure amounts to several percentage of the normal state resistance, which is an order of magnitude less than predicted by the theory.

On the detection probability of neutron star glitches
Creators: name: Yu, Meng
name: Liu, Qinjian
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Neutron stars are observed to undergo small, abrupt rotational speed-up. This phenomenon is known as glitch. In pulsar timing observations, detection of a neutron star glitch is constrained by the time of occurrence of the event relative to entire observing span and observing cadences, time of occurrence of preceding/subsequent glitches relative to observing cadences and the strength of timing noise. Using the Yu et al. (2013) data sets, in this paper, we analyse the observational selection in terms of detection probability. We define partial probabilities for the constraints and use Monte Carlo method with assuming glitches distribute uniformly to solve the complete probability formula for both group case involving 157 pulsars and individual cases for each of the seven pulsars with glitch numbers $\geqslant 5$. In the simulations, numerical Bayesian inference is used for glitch identification. With the derived detection probability density and observed results, we uncover glitch size probability distribution embedded in the data for both the group and individual cases. We find the most prominent correction occurred for PSR~J1341$-$6220, in which exponent of the power-law model varies from the observed $+0.7^{+1.4}_{-0.7}$ to $-0.4^{+1.0}_{-0.4}$. We suggest observers determine the detection probability for glitch theories, e.g. the self-organised criticality.

Approximability of the discrete Fréchet distance
Creators: name: Bringmann, Karl
name: Mulzer, Wolfgang
Publisher: name: Journal of Computational Geometry
Year: 2015

description: The Fréchet distance is a popular and widespread distance measure for point sequences and for curves. About two years ago, Agarwal et al. [SIAM J. Comput. 2014] presented a new (mildly) subquadratic algorithm for the discrete version of the problem. This spawned a flurry of activity that has led to several new algorithms and lower bounds. In this paper, we study the approximability of the discrete Fréchet distance. Building on a recent result by Bringmann [FOCS 2014], we present a new conditional lower bound showing that strongly subquadratic algorithms for the discrete Fréchet distance are unlikely to exist, even in the one-dimensional case and even if the solution may be approximated up to a factor of 1.399. This raises the question of how well we can approximate the Fréchet distance (of two given $d$-dimensional point sequences of length $n$) in strongly subquadratic time. Previously, no general results were known. We present the first such algorithm by analysing the approximation ratio of a simple, linear-time greedy algorithm to be $2^{\Theta(n)}$. Moreover, we design an $\alpha$-approximation algorithm that runs in time $O(n\log n + n^2/\alpha)$, for any $\alpha\in [1, n]$. Hence, an $n^\varepsilon$-approximation of the Fréchet distance can be computed in strongly subquadratic time, for any $\varepsilon > 0$.

Genetic load makes cancer cells more sensitive to common drugs: evidence from Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia

description: Genetic alterations initiate tumors and enable the evolution of drug resistance. The pro-cancer view of mutations is however incomplete, and several studies show that mutational load can reduce tumor fitness. Given its negative effect, genetic load should make tumors more sensitive to anticancer drugs. Here, we test this hypothesis across all major types of cancer from the Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia, which provides genetic and expression data of 496 cell lines together with their response to 24 common anticancer drugs. We found that the efficacy of 9 out of 24 drugs showed significant association with genetic load in a pan-cancer analysis. The associations for some tissue-drug combinations were remarkably strong, with genetic load explaining up to 83% of the variance in the drug response. Overall, the role of genetic load depended on both the drug and the tissue type with 10 tissues being particularly vulnerable to genetic load. We also identified changes in gene expression associated with increased genetic load, which included cell-cycle checkpoints, DNA damage and apoptosis. Our results show that genetic load is an important component of tumor fitness and can predict drug sensitivity. Beyond being a biomarker, genetic load might be a new, unexplored vulnerability of cancer.
Improved Bactofection Method for Enhanced DNA Delivery using Invasive E. Coli DH10B in Human Cells

description: The work was to strengthen an otherwise weak gene delivery vector i.e. invasive E.Coli DH10B, for combating genetic disorders. This bacterial vector is a non-pathogenic species and also provides easy handling. It was established that by employing simple and cost effective methods, the vector could boost up its transgene delivery capacity in the host cells. The vector's efficiency was found to be equivalent to the well-established viral vectors' efficiency. The high gene delivering capacity was established in four cell types, confirming the diversified nature of the vector. Also, the vector has shown promise in delivering large-sized DNA.
Algorithms for the discrete Fréchet distance under translation

name: Katz, Matthew
Publisher: name: Journal of Computational Geometry
Year: 2020

description: $\newcommand{\frechet}{Fréchet}$The (discrete) \frechet\ distance (DFD) is a popular similarity measure for curves. Often the input curves are not aligned, so one of them must undergo some transformation for the distance computation to be meaningful. Ben Avraham et al. (2015) presented an $O(m^3n^2(1+\log(n/m))\log(m+n))$-time algorithm for DFD between two sequences of points of sizes $m$ and $n$ in the plane under translation. In this paper we consider two variants of DFD, both under translation. For DFD with shortcuts in the plane, we present an $O(m^2n^2\log^2(m+n))$-time algorithm, by presenting a dynamic data structure for reachability queries in the underlying directed graph. In 1D, we show how to avoid the use of parametric search and remove a logarithmic factor from the running time of (the 1D versions of) these algorithms and of an algorithm for the weak discrete \frechet\ distance; the resulting running times are thus $O(m^2n(1+\log(n/m)))$, for the discrete \frechet\ distance, $O(mn\log(m+n))$, for the shortcuts variant, and $O(mn\log(m+n)(\log\log(m+n))^3)$ for the weak variant. Our 1D algorithms follow a general scheme introduced by Martello et al. (1984) for the Balanced Optimization Problem (BOP), which is especially useful when an efficient dynamic version of the feasibility decider is available. We present an alternative scheme for BOP, whose advantage is that it yields efficient algorithms quite easily, without having to devise a specially tailored dynamic version of the feasibility decider. We demonstrate our scheme on the most uniform path problem (significantly improving the known bound), and observe that weak DFD under translation in 1D is a special case of it.

description: In this paper the optical gain mechanism in phototransistor detectors (PTDs) is explored in low light conditions. An analytical formula is derived for the physical limit on the minimum number of detectable photons for the PTD. This formulation shows that the sensitivity of the PTD, regardless of its material composition, is related to the square root of the normalized total capacitance at the base layer. Since the base total capacitance is directly proportional to the size of the PTD, the formulation shows the scaling effect on the sensitivity of the PTD. We used the extracted formula to study the sensitivity limit of a typical InGaAs/InP heterojunction PTD. Modeling predicts that a PTD with a nanoscale electronic area can reach to a single photon noise equivalent power even at room temperature. The proposed model can also be used to explore the sensitivity and speed of the nanowire-based photodetectors. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first comprehensive study on the sensitivity of the PTD for low light detection.

A near-linear time approximation scheme for geometric transportation with arbitrary supplies and spread

name: Lu, Jiashuai
Publisher: name: Journal of Computational Geometry
Year: 2022

description: $\newcommand{\R}{\mathbb{R}}\DeclareMathOperator{\poly}{poly}\DeclareMathOperator{\polylog}{polylog}$The geometric transportation problem takes as input a set of points \(P\) in \(d\)-dimensional Euclidean space and a supply function \(\mu : P \to \R\). The goal is to find a transportation map, a non-negative assignment \(\tau : P \times P \to \R_{\geq 0}\) to pairs of points, so the total assignment leaving each point is equal to its supply, i.e., \(\sum_{r \in P} \tau(q, r) - \sum_{p \in P} \tau(p, q) = \mu(q)\) for all points \(q \in P\). The goal is to minimize the weighted sum of Euclidean distances for the pairs, \(\sum_{(p, q) \in P \times P} \tau(p, q) \cdot ||q - p||_2\). We describe the first algorithm for this problem that returns, with high probability, a \((1 + \epsilon)\)-approximation to the optimal transportation map in \(O(n \poly(1 / \epsilon) \polylog{n})\) time. In contrast to the previous best algorithms for this problem, our near-linear running time bound is independent of the spread of \(P\) and the magnitude of its real-valued supplies.

description: Electromagnetic rays travel on curved paths under the influence of gravity. When a dispersive optical medium is included, these trajectories are frequency-dependent. In this work we consider the behaviour of rays when a spherically symmetric, luminous compact object described by the Schwarzschild metric is surrounded by an optically thin shell of plasma supported by radiation pressure. Such levitating atmospheres occupy a position of stable radial equilibrium, where radiative flux and gravitational effects are balanced. Using general relativity and an inhomogeneous plasma we find the existence of a stable circular orbit within the atmospheric shell for low-frequency rays. We explore families of bound orbits that exist between the shell and the compact object, and identify sets of novel periodic orbits. Finally, we examine conditions necessary for the trapping and escape of low-frequency radiation.

A divide-and-conquer algorithm for two-point L1 shortest path queries in polygonal domains
Creators: name: Wang, Haitao
Publisher: name: Journal of Computational Geometry
Year: 2020

description: Let $P$ be a polygonal domain of $h$ holes and $n$ vertices. We study the problem of constructing a data structure that can compute a shortest path between $s$ and $t$ in $P$ under the $L_1$ metric for any two query points $s$ and $t$. To do so, a standard approach is to first find a set of $n_s$ "gateways" for $s$ and a set of $n_t$ "gateways" for $t$ such that there exist a shortest $s-t$ path containing a gateway of $s$ and a gateway of $t$, and then compute a shortest $s-t$ path using these gateways. Previous algorithms all take quadratic $O(n_s n_t)$ time to solve this problem. In this paper, we propose a divide-and-conquer technique that solves the problem in $O(n_s + n_t\log n_s)$ time. As a consequence, we construct a data structure of $O(n+(h^2 \log^3 h / \log\log h))$ size in $O(n+(h^2 \log^4 h / \log\log h))$ time such that each query can be answered in $O(\log n)$ time.

description: The extensive grid of numerical simulations of nova eruptions of Yaron et al.(2005) first predicted that some classical novae might deviate significantly from the Maximum Magnitude - Rate of Decline (MMRD) relation, which purports to characterise novae as standard candles. Kasliwal et al. (2011) have announced the observational detection of an apparently new class of faint, fast classical novae in the Andromeda galaxy. These objects deviate strongly from the MMRD relationship, exactly as predicted by Yaron et al. (2005). Shara et al. (2016) recently reported the first detections of faint, fast novae in M87. These previously overlooked objects are as common in the giant elliptical galaxy M87 as they are in the giant spiral M31; they comprise about 40% of all classical nova eruptions and greatly increase the observational scatter in the MMRD relation. We use the extensive grid of nova simulations of Yaron et al. (2005) to identify the underlying causes of the existence of faint, fast novae. These are systems which have accreted, and can thus eject, only very low mass envelopes, of order 10^-7 - 10^-8 Msun, on massive white dwarfs. Such binaries include, but are not limited to, the recurrent novae. These same models predict the existence of ultrafast novae which display decline times t2 as short as five hours. We outline a strategy for their future detection.

Low-energy interactions are needed to reconstruct the energies of astrophysical neutrinos from supernovae bursts and search for new physics using increasingly precise measurement of coherent elastic neutrino scattering. Higher-energy interactions involve a variety of reaction mechanisms including quasi-elastic scattering, resonance production, and deep inelastic scattering that must all be included to reliably predict cross sections for energies relevant to DUNE and other accelerator neutrino experiments. This white paper discusses the theoretical status, challenges, required resources, and path forward for achieving precise predictions of neutrino-nucleus scattering and emphasizes the need for a coordinated theoretical effort involved lattice QCD, nuclear effective theories, phenomenological models of the transition region, and event generators.

description: We propose to combine the active vortex generators with the particle image velocimetry (PIV) measurements and post-processing streamwise vortex characterization algorithms into a feedback based closed-loop control system for wind turbine applications. We develop two vortex identification and characterization methods that use PIV realizations for the purpose of a real-time (online or on-the-fly) feedback-based control. Both methods can extract centers and strengths of streamwise vortices generated behind active vortex generators in a turbulent boundary layer flow, and we show how to integrate those in a closed-loop control strategy. For demonstration purposes we use stereoscopic PIV measurements at the wind tunnel facility obtained in the transverse-wall-normal plane behind active vortex generators. A robust algorithm is using the $Q$-criteria and the integration of vorticity of each extracted vortex. Results show that a moving window average of a small number of instantaneous fields is nevertheless needed for increased robustness. The robust method requires the full field PIV computation followed by spatial derivatives calculations. A faster method is developed, which, using only horizontal lines of vertical velocity, has a high potential to significantly cut down the computational effort relative to the robust method. We compare the two methods and discuss their shortcomings and the potential for the real-time, online, closed-loop control of turbulent boundary layers of the wind turbine blades.

description: In high energy experiments such as active beam dump searches for rare decays and missing energy events, the beam purity is a crucial parameter. In this paper we present a technique to reject heavy charged particle contamination in the 100 GeV electron beam of the H4 beam line at CERN SPS. The method is based on the detection with BGO scintillators of the synchrotron radiation emitted by the electrons passing through a bending dipole magnet. A 100 GeV $π^-$ beam is used to test the method in the NA64 experiment resulting in a suppression factor of $10^{-5}$ while the efficiency for electron detection is $\sim$95%. The spectra and the rejection factors are in very good agreement with the Monte Carlo simulation. The reported suppression factors are significantly better than previously achieved.

Efficient and accurate numerical schemes for a hydrodynamically coupled phase field diblock copolymer model

description: In this paper, we consider numerical approximations of a hydrodynamically coupled phase field diblock copolymer model, in which the free energy contains a kinetic potential, a gradient entropy, a Ginzburg-Landau double well potential, and a long range nonlocal type potential. We develop a set of second order time marching schemes for this system using the "Invariant Energy Quadratization" approach for the double well potential, the projection method for the Navier-Stokes equation, and a subtle implicit-explicit treatment for the stress and convective term. The resulting schemes are linear and lead to symmetric positive definite systems at each time step, thus they can be efficiently solved. We further prove that these schemes are unconditionally energy stable. Various numerical experiments are performed to validate the accuracy and energy stability of the proposed schemes.

description: CASE HISTORY: Mature, in-calf, non-lactating, Friesian or Friesian-cross cows were fed dicyandiamide (DCD) at daily doses of 0.15 g/kg (Group 1; n=31), 0.45 g/kg (Group 2; n=21) and 0.75 g/kg (Group 3; n=12), as part of a safety trial, which also included a control group (n=15). Daily health observations were carried out on each cow until Day 86 of the study. On Day 28 one cow from Group 3 was observed with signs of disease, and subsequently disease was noted in other cows. CLINICAL FINDINGS: Clinical signs in the first case included depression, pyrexia (40.9°C), salivation and dehydration, in addition to progressive weight loss, followed by death on Day 32. Other cows from all treatment groups developed clinical signs of disease resulting in euthanasia of seven animals. Disease occurred in 10/12 (83%) cows in Group 3, 11/21 (52%) cows in Group 2, and 7/31 (23%) cows in Group 1. Clinical signs were variable and included dermatitis and pruritus of the head and neck, petechial haemorrhages, pyrexia, weight loss, thrombocytopenia, neutropenia, and regenerative anaemia. PATHOLOGICAL FINDINGS: Gross findings included generalised lymphadenopathy, subcutaneous oedema, petechiation of mucosal and serosal surfaces, and gastrointestinal haemorrhage. Histologically, multiple organs and tissues contained inflammatory foci characterised by infiltrates of lymphocytes, plasma cells, macrophages and occasionally prominent multinucleated giant cells and eosinophils. DIAGNOSIS: Multisystemic granulomatous and haemorrhagic syndrome resembling cell-mediated hypersensitivity, associated with DCD ingestion. CLINICAL RELEVANCE:: This is the first report of toxicity in cattle associated with ingestion of DCD. The proportion of affected cows increased with increasing dose of DCD, but not all cattle in the high dose group developed disease, therefore additional factors may determine whether or not an individual cow will develop DCD-associated disease.

description: Cographs have always been a research target in areas such as coloring, graph decomposition, and spectral theory. In this work, we present an algorithm to generate all unlabeled cographs with $n$ vertices, based on the generation of cotrees. The delay of our algorithm (time spent between two consecutive outputs) is $O(n)$. The time needed to generate the first output is also $O(n)$, which gives an overall $O(n\,M_n)$ time complexity, where $M_n$ is the number of unlabeled cographs with $n$ vertices. The algorithm avoids the generation of duplicates (isomorphic outputs) and produces, as a by-product, a linear ordering of unlabeled cographs wih $n$ vertices.

description: Chitin can be widely found in the fungal cell wall, nematode eggshells, and the exoskeleton of arthropods; however, it is completely absent from higher plants and mammals. The process of chitin degradation is essential for both growth and maturation of insects. Thus, inhibiting chitin degradation is a promising strategy for the control and management of pests. The chitinolytic β-N-acetyl-D-hexosaminidase OfHex1 of Ostrinia furnacalis (one of the most destructive pests) has been suggested as a potential target for the design of eco-friendly pesticides. This study presents the sequential virtual screening of the ZINC library with 8 million compounds, targeting OfHex1. After confirmation via enzyme inhibition experiments, compound 5 exhibited potential inhibitory activity against OfHex1 with a Ki of 28.9 ± 0.5 μM and significant selectivity (IC50 > 100 μM against HsHexB and hOGA). Molecular dynamics simulations combined with binding free energy and free energy decomposition calculations were conducted to investigate the molecular basis underlying the potency of these inhibitors toward OfHex1. The present work provides useful information for the future rational design of novel and potent OfHex1 inhibitors.
Preconditioning for the Geometric Transportation Problem

description: $\newcommand{\eps}{\varepsilon}$In the geometric transportation problem, we are given a collection of points $P$ in $d$-dimensional Euclidean space, and each point is given a (positive or negative integer) supply. The goal is to find a transportation map that satisfies the supplies, while minimizing the total distance traveled. This problem has been widely studied in many fields of computer science: from computational geometry, to computer vision, graphics, and machine learning. In this work we study approximation algorithms for the geometric transportation problem. We give an algorithm which, for any fixed dimension $d$, finds a $(1+\eps)$-approximate transportation map in time nearly-linear in $n$, and polynomial in $\eps^{-1}$ and in the logarithm of the total positive supply. This is the first approximation scheme for the problem whose running time depends on $n$ as $n\cdot \mathrm{polylog}(n)$. Our techniques combine the generalized preconditioning framework of Sherman, which is grounded in continuous optimization, with simple geometric arguments to first reduce the problem to a minimum cost flow problem on a sparse graph, and then to design a good preconditioner for this latter problem.

description: The problem of prevention of acute respiratory disease is actual owing to their polietiology. The greatest success is achieved in complex prevention of flu. Specific vaccinal prevention of flu is effectively carried out. On creation of an effective vaccine against a new stock of a virus not less than 5-6 months therefore value of antiviral preparations and nonspecific prevention increases are required. Considering a mutation of viruses, incidence growth, the social and economic importance, age groups of the population and development of complications, in medicine the integrated approach to flu and acute respiratory disease prevention is used.
Surface temperatures of albatross eggs and nests

description: Knowledge of thermal traits is essential for understanding and modelling physiological responses to environmental change. Egg temperatures are poorly studied in most tubenose species. We employed a contactless infrared thermometer to measure egg and nest surface temperatures throughout the incubation period for four albatross species at Bird Island, South Georgia. The observed mean warm-side temperature of 33.4°C for Wandering Albatross (Diomedea exulans) was similar to measurements obtained from this species using dummy eggs elsewhere. Observed mean warm-side temperatures for Black-browed Albatross (Thalassarche melanophris), Grey-headed Albatross (Thalassarche chrysostoma), and Light-mantled Albatross (Phoebetria palpebrata), reported here for the first time, were 30.7–31.5°C, which is lower than the egg temperatures reported for most Procellariiformes. Temperature gradients across viable eggs declined by up to 9°C during incubation, reflecting increased embryonic circulation and metabolic heat production. This suggests that bioenergetic models should not assume constant egg temperatures during embryo development. Non-viable (addled) eggs could be identified by large temperature gradients in late incubation, indicating that infrared thermometry can be used to determine whether the embryo has died or the egg is infertile in monitoring and managed breeding (e.g. translocation) programmes. Egg temperatures were correlated with ground temperatures, indicating that incubated eggs are vulnerable to environmental variability.
