Aran Islands, western Ireland: farming history and environmental change reconstructed from field surveys, historical sources, and pollen analyses
(Eagle Hill Institute, 2019)The Aran Islands are exceptional cultural landscapes at the Atlantic fringe of Europe. They are strongly influenced by human settlement and small-scale farming that is still pursued according to traditional practices. ... -
Transparent and reproducible pain research: a critical review
(Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins for International Association for the Study of Pain, 2018-09-01)Recently, the degree to which scientific publications provide a reliable source of information has come under intense scrutiny. Reports suggest that a substantial amount of published literature is likely to be biased,28 ... -

Addressing fidelity within complex health behaviour change interventions: A protocol of a scoping review of intervention fidelity frameworks and models
(Health Research Board, 2018-12-11)Intervention fidelity is crucial to facilitate accurate interpretation of research outcomes, but has been inadequately addressed within complex health behaviour change interventions. Recent research has highlighted a need ... -
Surveying knowledge, practice and attitudes towards intervention fidelity within trials of complex healthcare interventions
(BMC, 2018-09-19)Background Intervention fidelity is the degree to which interventions have been implemented as intended by their developers. Assessing fidelity is crucial for accurate interpretation of intervention effectiveness, but ... -
Ovidian retro-metamorphosis on the Elizabethan stage

Late Pleistocene snowline fluctuations at Nevado Coropuna (15 degrees S), southern Peruvian Andes
(Wiley, 2011-02-09)Deposits preserved on peaks in the southern Peruvian Andes are evidence for past glacial fluctuations and, therefore, serve as a record of both the timing and magnitude of past climate change. Moraines corresponding to the ... -
Glacier fluctuations in the southern Peruvian Andes during the late-glacial period, constrained with cosmogenic He-3
(Wiley, 2011-01-19)The occurrence of pronounced climate reversals during the last glacial termination has long been recognised in palaeoclimate records from both hemispheres and from high to low latitudes. Accurate constraint of both the ... -
