Camel tick species distribution in Saudi Arabia and United Arab Emirates using MaxEnt modelling by Nighat Perveen, Sabir B. Muzaffar, Areej Jaradat, Olivier A. Sparagano, Arve L. Willingham, Ala Tabor

“…Several variables including land use/land cover (LULC) (53.1%), precipitation of coldest quarter (Bio19) (21.8%), elevation (20.6%), isothermality (Bio3) (1.9%), mean diurnal range [mean of monthly (max temp – min temp)] (Bio2) (1.8%), slope (0.5%), precipitation, seasonality (Bio15) (0.2%) influenced habitat suitability of ticks, predicting high tick density or abundance. Middle of the road scenario (ssp2-4.5) where CO2 levels remain similar to current levels, did not indicate a major change in the tick distributions. …”

Engagement in a web-based intervention for individuals who committed sexual offenses against children: observational study by Sonja Schröder, Safiye Tozdan, Peer Briken, Jürgen L. Müller, Peter Fromberger

“…The results of the present study indicate that (a) 81% of the participants logged into the web-based intervention within 8 weeks after login credentials were sent; (b) there was a trend toward lower treatment readiness and lower belief in their own technical prerequisites in individuals who did not login; (c) 15% of the participants completed all requested sessions within the first 5 weeks of participation, and the average participant logged in on 6 different days and completed two sessions; (d) the number of login days and completed sessions could be predicted by treatment readiness. We discuss these findings and their implications for the development and implementation of further web-based interventions in the forensic context. …”
