Light pollution from illuminated bridges as a potential barrier for migrating fish–Linking measurements with a proposal for a conceptual model
PublicationIlluminated bridges have become important assets to navigable aquatic systems. However, if artificial light at night (ALAN) from illuminated bridges reaches aquatic habitats, such as rivers, it can threaten the river's natural heterogeneity and alter the behavioural responses of migratory fish. Here, via a pilot study, we quantified levels of ALAN at illuminated bridges that cross a river and, propose a conceptual model to estimate...

Quantum entanglement
PublicationAll our former experience with application of quantum theory seems to say that what is predicted by quantum formalism must occur in the laboratory. But the essence of quantum formalism-entanglement, recognized by Einstein, Podolsky, Rosen, and Schrödinger-waited over 70 years to enter laboratories as a new resource as real as energy. This holistic property of compound quantum systems, which involves nonclassical correlations between...

Indeksy demokracji i stan zaawansowania ich rozwoju dla pomiaru jakości demokracji na poziomie lokalnym - Democracy indices and current state of their advancement for measuring quality of democracy at a local level
PublicationJak mierzyć demokrację? Jak ocenić, czy jeden ustrój demokratyczny jest bardziej de-mokratyczny od innego i na jakiej podstawie to stwierdzić? Pomiary jakości demokracji na poziomie państw istnieją już od 1946 roku, a na ich podstawie powstawały indeksy demokracji jak np. Freedom House, Polity IV, czy też Varieties of Democracy. Poza poziomem państw jest zdecydowanie mniej narzędzi tego typu, a istniejące – jak np. Local Autonomy...
