cogsworth: A Gala of COSMIC Proportions Combining Binary Stellar Evolution and Galactic Dynamics by Tom Wagg, Katelyn Breivik, Mathieu Renzo, Adrian M. Price-Whelan

“…We provide a detailed explanation of the functionality of cogsworth and demonstrate its capabilities through a series of use cases: (1) we predict the spatial distribution of compact objects and runaways in both dwarf and Milky Way–like galaxies; (2) using a star cluster from a hydrodynamical simulation, we show how supernovae can change the orbits of stars in several ways; and (3) we predict the separation of disrupted binary stellar companions on the sky and create a synthetic Gaia color–magnitude diagram. …”

Investigating Source Mechanisms for Nonlinear Displacement of GNSS Using Environmental Loads by Jian Wang, Wenlan Fan, Weiping Jiang, Zhao Li, Tianjun Liu, Qusen Chen

“…After removing the displacements caused by environmental loads, the root mean square (RMS) values of the coordinate time series decreased by 85.5% in the E direction, 77.4% in the N direction, and 89.8% in the U direction, with average reductions of 6.2%, 4.4%, and 16.7%, respectively. Lastly, it also comprehensively assesses the consistency between environmental loads and coordinate time series from the perspectives of the optimal noise model, velocity and uncertainty, and amplitude and phase. …”

Geography versus sociodemographics as predictors of changes in daily mobility across the USA during the COVID-19 pandemic: a two-stage regression analysis across 26 metropolitan ar... by Alain B Labrique, Amy Wesolowski, Derek A T Cummings, Shruti H Mehta, Sunil S Solomon, Rohan Arambepola, Kathryn Schaber, Catherine Schluth

“…Objective We investigated whether a zip code’s location or demographics are most predictive of changes in daily mobility throughout the course of the COVID-19 pandemic.Design We used a population-level study to examine the predictability of daily mobility during the COVID-19 pandemic using a two-stage regression approach, where generalised additive models (GAM) predicted mobility trends over time at a large spatial level, then the residuals were used to determine which factors (location, zip code-level features or number of non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) in place) best predict the difference between a zip code’s measured mobility and the average trend on a given date.Setting We analyse zip code-level mobile phone records from 26 metropolitan areas in the USA on 15 March–31 September 2020, relative to October 2020.Results While relative mobility had a general trend, a zip code’s city-level location significantly helped to predict its daily mobility patterns. …”

Human–wildlife interactions by C. Rosell, F. Llimona

“…The second paper provides an example of how the distribution of irrigated croplands influences wild boar roadkills in NW Spain (Colino–Rabanal et al., 2012). By modeling the spatial distribution of wild boar collisions with vehicles and using generalized additive models based on GIS, the authors show that the number of roadkills is higher in maize croplands than in forested areas. …”
