Migration distance from birthplace and its association with relative income and employment share among heterosexual couples in Switzerland

Vincent Kaufmann, Guillaume Simon Joseph Drevon, Alexis Gumy, Gil Viry, Florian Lucien Jacques Masse

Among heterosexual couples, employment of the female partner may suffer from household migration often driven by the job of the male partner. Most research has traditionally focused on the distance moved after couple formation and has neglected how far par ...

City, State, Transnational Space

Garance Clément

This chapter takes stock of contemporary migration by breaking with a few myths and by distinguishing between interregional and international migration. It shows how new research paradigms have relativized the importance of the state as the preferred frame ...

The end of urban sprawl? Internal migration across the rural-urban continuum in Switzerland, 1966-2018

Mathias Lerch

In high-income countries, migration redistributed populations from congested city centres into the sparsely populated outskirts, raising challenges to environmental and population health and the conservation of biodiversity. We evaluate whether this periur ...

International Migration And The Growth Of Zurich, 1836-1949

Mathias Lerch

The role played by international migration and its interactions with other demographic components in the process of city growth remains underappreciated. We analyze trends in natural increase and in net internal and international migration in Zurich during ...

Sensor and the Beast: Generalised Methods to Recognise Animal Behaviour and Quantify Energy Expenditure Using Inertial Sensors, and Applications

Pritish Chakravarty

How an animal allocates time and energy to different activities has repercussions for its survival, fitness, and response to changing environmental conditions. Fine-scale information on animal behaviour and energy expenditure can help develop better inform ...

Dynamic Balanced Graph Partitioning

Andreas Loukas, Georg Stefan Schmid

This paper initiates the study of the classic balanced graph partitioning problem from an online perspective: Given an arbitrary sequence of pairwise communication requests between n nodes, with patterns that may change over time, the objective is to servi ...

Effects of altered river network connectivity on the distribution of Salmo trutta: Insights from a metapopulation model

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Luca Carraro

Network connectivity is a key feature of rivers that affects patterns and processes in lotic ecosystems. Few studies have considered how changes in river reach connectivity might affect ecosystem attributes at a whole river network scale. The use of popula ...

Climate or migration: what limited European beech post-glacial colonization?

Basil Andrew Stansfield Davis

AimDespite the recent improvements made in species distribution models (SDMs), assessing species' ability to migrate fast enough to track their climate optimum remains a challenge. This study achieves this goal and demonstrates the reliability of a process ...

Monthly trends and the corresponding altitudinal shift in the snowfall/precipitation day ratio

Martine Rebetez, Gaëlle Serquet

A better understanding of the impact of changing temperatures on snow amounts is very important for the ski industry, but it is difficult to measure, particularly at different times of the snow season and not only on an annual or seasonal basis. Here, we a ...

Migration dynamics of breast cancer cells in a tunable 3D interstitial flow chamber

Philippe Renaud, Melody Swartz

The migration of cells such as leukocytes, tumor cells, and fibroblasts through 3D matrices is critical for regulating homeostasis and immunity and for driving pathogenesis. Interstitial flow through the extracellular matrix, which can substantially increa ...

Elucidating the Role of Matrix Stiffness in 3D Cell Migration and Remodeling

Matthias Lütolf, Adrian Ranga, Philipp Sebastian Lienemann, Katarzyna Mosiewicz

Reductionist in vitro model systems which mimic specific extracellular matrix functions in a highly controlled manner, termed artificial extracellular matrices (aECM), have increasingly been used to elucidate the role of cell-ECM interactions in regulating ...

Thermal effects in the Long-Term Monitoring of Bridges

Olivier Burdet

Daily and seasonal temperature variations induce deflections of bridges. The amplitude of these moments is significant in comparison with the yearly increment caused by irreversible long-term deflections. To improve the quality of the interpretation of mon ...

Part I: A novel in-vitro system for simultaneous mechanical stimulation and time-lapse microscopy in 3D

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell

To investigate the migration response of cells to changes in their biophysical environment, a novel uniaxial cell stimulation device (UCSD) has been designed and tested. The device is capable of applying very precise user-defined static or dynamic mechanic ...
