Urban expansion across a mountain-to-coastal gradient and its implications for hydrogeomorphic risk in Port-au-Prince, HaitiNARA Subscribed
Rapid urban growth can intensify flood hazard when land-cover change alters runoff production on slopes and concentrates drainage toward occupied lowlands. We assessed this process in the Port-au-Prince Arrondissement, Haiti, by combining a 30 m digital elevation model and geomorphon classification with Landsat 8 land-use and land-cover maps for 2015, 2020, and 2025, a 10 m Sentinel-2 map for 2025, weighted flood-susceptibilit...
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of dietary supplementation with the microalgae Nannochloropsis oculata and Phaeodactylum tricornutum , either separately or in combination, on growth performance, lipid profile, haematoimmunological parameters, and resistance to Edwardsiella tarda infection in Nile tilapia ( Oreochromis niloticus ). A total of 960 juvenile Nile tilapia (2.87 ± 0.68 g and 5.65 ± 0.16 cm)...
Peripheral microRNA signature in genetic frontotemporal dementia—findings from the GENFI initiativeNARA Subscribed
Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by significant clinical and genetic heterogeneity, with approximately 40% of cases linked to hereditary genetic mutations, including MAPT , GRN , and C9ORF72 . Recently, microRNAs (miRNAs) have emerged as key regulators of cellular processes related to neurodegeneration and as potential biomarkers for FTD. However, their relevance in presymptomatic stag...
Under the current global biodiversity crisis, there is a need for automated and noninvasive monitoring techniques that can gather large amounts of data cost‐effectively at various ecological scales, from local to large spatial scales. These data can then be analyzed to inform stakeholders and decision‐makers. One such technique is passive acoustic monitoring, which is commonly coupled with automatic identification of animal sp...
The southwestern South Atlantic Ocean is an important global sink of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO 2 ), driven by increased primary productivity in a nearby region where oligotrophic warm currents converge with nutrient-rich cold waters. However, uncertainties remain regarding CO 2 dynamics and the role of physical processes in CO 2 uptake across this region. Here, we assess variations in surface partial pressure of CO 2 ( p...
Motivation Here, we make available a second version of the BioTIME database, which compiles records of abundance estimates for species in sample events of ecological assemblages through time. The updated version expands version 1.0 of the database by doubling the number of studies and includes substantial additional curation to the taxonomic accuracy of the records, as well as the metadata. Moreover, we now provide an R packag...
Aim The urgency for remote, reliable and scalable biodiversity monitoring amidst mounting human pressures on ecosystems has sparked worldwide interest in Passive Acoustic Monitoring (PAM), which can track life underwater and on land. However, we lack a unified methodology to report this sampling effort and a comprehensive overview of PAM coverage to gauge its potential as a global research and monitoring tool. To address this...
