    FULL TITLE: rWind: Download, edit and include wind data in ecological and evolutionary analysis. AUTHOR LIST Javier Fernández -López, Real Jardín Botánico (CSIC), Madrid, Spain. ORCiD ID: https://orcid.org/0000 -0003-4352-0252 Klaus Schliep, University of Massachusetts Boston, Boston MA, USA ORCiD ID: https://orcid.org/0000 -0003-2941-0161 Corresponding author: Javier Fernández-Lópe z E -mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT 1. Wind connectivity has been identified as a key factor driving many biological processes. 2. Existing software available for managing wind data are often overly complex for studying many ecological processes and cannot be incorporated into a broad framework. 3. Here we present rWind, an R langauge package to download and manage surface wind da ta from the Global Forecasting System and to compute wind connectivity between locations. 4. Data obtained with rWind can be used in a general framework for analysis of biological processes to develop hypotheses about the role of wind in driving ecological and evolutionary patterns. KEYWORDS R, wind connectivity, landscape genetics SOFTWARE AVAILABILITY The stable version of rWind is released regularly on the Comprehensive R Archive Network (CRAN): https://CRAN.R -project.org/package=rWind and can be installed in R by typing the following command: install.packages("rWind") The development version of rWind is hosted on github: https://github.com/jabiologo/rWind rWind is distributed under GNU Public Licence (GPL) version 3 or greater.

    A Study of UK Gaming Attitudes and Behaviours

    Game on: a study of UK gaming attitudes and behaviours How smartphones, esports and VR are changing the way we play savanta.com savanta.com Contents 3 Introduction 4 Industry overview: who are gamers? 12 The four gamer personas 18 Gaming purchasing behaviour and spend 22 Addiction and bullying: the dark side of gaming 26 Who watches esports? 29 VR: what does the future hold? 32 Conclusion 33 How Savanta can help you savanta.com 2 Introduction Much has changed in the gaming industry since the days of Pong and Pacman or even Mario and Sonic; now everyone with a smartphone has access to a world of games in their pocket. More than two thirds (67%) of people in the UK have played a game on a smartphone over the past year. The ways in which people buy video games have also evolved with more than a third (36%) of gamers saying they have purchased a gaming subscription and 30% using a game key or token within the last three months. Gaming is no longer a niche pastime. Overall, the majority (86%) of the UK population have played a game of some kind over the past year, and although 17% of Brits agree with the statement that “most gamers are kids or teenagers” the data demonstrates that this is categorically untrue. This report on the gaming industry sets out to debunk some myths as well as looking at the personas of different gamers, their gaming habits and their views on emerging trends such as esports and the future of virtual reality.

    Resources, Conservation and Recycling, 6 ( 1992 ) 243-257 243 Elsevier Science Publishers B.V. Composting of domestic refuse and sewage sludge. II. Evolution of carbon and some "humification" indexes Emeterio Iglesias Jim6nez and Victor P6rez Garcia Instituto de Productos Naturales y Agrobiologia de Canarias, Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain (Received 15 July 1991; accepted in revised form 6 January 1992 ) ABSTRACT Iglesias Jim6nez, E. and P6rez Garcia, V., 1992. Composting of domestic refuse and sewage sludge. II. Evolution of carbon and some "humification" indexes. Resour. Conserv. RecycL, 6: 243-257. The evolution, during composting of city refuse (R-pile) and city refuse + sewage sludge co-com- posting (R + S-pile), of total organic matter (TOM) and some forms of carbon: total organic carbon (Ct), oxidizable carbon (Co), alkaline-extractable carbon (Cox), humic acid-like carbon (Cha), and fulvic acid-like carbon (Cfa), was evaluated. The results were correlated with some maturity param- eters, namely, C/N ratio in the solid phase (C/Ns), C/N ratio in the water-soluble phase (C/Nw), and cation-exchange capacity (CEC), to examine the relationships between the mineralizationof the organic matter, biological stability of compost, and "humification". The regression analysis was carried out consideringjointly all the data points of both the R-pile and the R + S-pile, to extrapolate new maturity criteria irrespective of the initial composition of the urban raw material used for composting. The results show that the CEC/Ct and ChJCfa ratios may also be considered to be good maturity parameters. A value higher than 1.9 for both ratios, in addition to a value lower than 6 for the C/Nw ratio, may be considered as a suitable indicator of a high degree of maturity in composts of urban origin (municipal solid waste and sewage sludge composts).
