Fiji: finger for BAT

Extension block pining for treatment of bony mallet finger

 Abstract  Background: The goal of this report is to show our results with extension block technique for treatment of mallet fracture. The indications for this technique were the presence of a large bone fragment, and palmar subluxation.  Methods: We retrospectively assessed the results of treatment in 14 mallet fractures  which have been treated by extension block technique to determine the ra...

Petroleum Geology of Fiji

The Fiji Platform developed as an island arc in the Tertiary. Extensional and transpressional tectonics have deformed the fill of extensive sedimentary basins within the Platform. These basins commonly contain over 3 km of stratified deposits. Five deep petroleum-exploration wells were drilled between 1980 and 1982, but all were dry. There remain reasonable prospects, however, because none of t...

Bat detective—Deep learning tools for bat acoustic signal detection

Passive acoustic sensing has emerged as a powerful tool for quantifying anthropogenic impacts on biodiversity, especially for echolocating bat species. To better assess bat population trends there is a critical need for accurate, reliable, and open source tools that allow the detection and classification of bat calls in large collections of audio recordings. The majority of existing tools are c...
