Socioeconomic correlates of urban mobility trends in two Australian cities during transitional periods of the COVID-19 pandemic by Pratyush Kollepara, Subhrasankha Dey, Martin Tomko, Erika Martino, Rebecca Bentley, Michele Tizzoni, Nicholas Geard, Cameron Zachreson

“…During the COVID-19 pandemic, both government-mandated lockdowns and discretionary changes in behaviour combined to produce dramatic and abrupt changes to human mobility patterns. To understand the socioeconomic determinants of intervention compliance and discretionary behavioural responses to epidemic threats, we investigate whether changes in human mobility showed a systematic variation by socioeconomic status during two distinct periods of the COVID-19 pandemic in Australia. …”

Influence of Typhoons on Chemical Makeup of Rainwater in Zhanjiang, China by Zhen Zeng, Xin Zhou, Zhiyang Li, Fajin Chen, Huijie Luo, Guirong He, Ziyun Deng, Chunqing Chen, Qibin Lao

“…Source determination demonstrated that the marine influences in the dry and wet seasons were similar, further indicating the limited impact of the monsoon climate on the ionic species’ seasonal patterns. The heavy rain and strong wind (> 47.4 m s−1) brought by a super typhoon led to an increase in ionic species carried from continental sources into ambient air, and such species were then captured by precipitation. …”

Female reproductive ageing persists despite high infanticide risk in chacma baboons and geladas by Jacob A. Feder, India A. Schneider-Crease, Jacinta C. Beehner, Thore J. Bergman, Robert M. Seyfarth, Joan B. Silk, Noah Snyder-Mackler, Amy Lu

“…While infant mortality linked with maternal death increased as mothers aged in both species, infanticide risk did not predictably shift with maternal age. Thus, infanticide patterns cannot explain the surprising young mother advantage observed in geladas. …”
