Governance Arrangements That Fit Social‐Ecological Context Are Associated With Fishery SustainabilityNARA Subscribed
In many parts of the world, natural resources are primarily managed by governance arrangements at the local level. Those arrangements range from collective, such as cooperatives and associations, to individualistic, such as patrons and owner‐operators. A key question is how such arrangements influence resource use and associated social and ecological outcomes. We hypothesize that sustainable resource use is not associated with...
The key mechanisms associated with the survival of Gulf toadfish, Opsanus beta , when in severe hypoxiaNARA Subscribed
Florida's shallow seagrass beds experience daily diurnal fluctuations in environmental oxygen, leading to hypoxic episodes (PO 2 −1 , ~6 kPa) that have increased in frequency and intensity in recent decades. The native Gulf toadfish ( Opsanus beta ) have been shown to employ a suite of adaptive cardiovascular, ventilatory and metabolic adjustments to survive moderate hypoxia, but little is known of the mechanisms used to survi...
Managing fisheries and ecosystems: current good practices and the EcoScope project experienceOA Marine
Ecosystem Based Management (EBM) is a comprehensive way of managing fisheries and marine resources. As such, it needs a large and complex suite of concepts and tools to address a variety of problems ranging from climate change, through various forms of water pollution, to trophic interactions and social-economic sustainability. Industry, scientists, managers, and policy makers involved in the fisheries sector are the main acto...
Nutritional ketosis modulates the methylation of cancer-related genes in patients with obesity and in breast cancer cellsNARA Subscribed
Scientific evidence demonstrates that a very low-calorie ketogenic diet (VLCKD) is effective and beneficial in the treatment of obesity, capable of reversing the methylome associated with obesity and has immunomodulatory capacity. This effect is in part promoted by nutritional ketosis and could be involved in counteracting obesity-related cancer. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of nutritional ketosis on the me...
FreshLanDiv : A Global Database of Freshwater Biodiversity Across Different Land UsesNARA Subscribed
Motivation Freshwater ecosystems have been heavily impacted by land‐use changes, but data syntheses on these impacts are still limited. Here, we compiled a global database encompassing 241 studies with species abundance data (from multiple biological groups and geographic locations) across sites with different land‐use categories. This compilation will be useful for addressing questions regarding land‐use change and its impact...
Defining an ageing-related pathology, disease or syndrome: International Consensus StatementNARA Subscribed
Around the world, individuals are living longer, but an increased average lifespan does not always equate to an increased health span. With advancing age, the increased prevalence of ageing-related diseases can have a significant impact on health status, functional capacity and quality of life. It is therefore vital to develop comprehensive classification and staging systems for ageing-related pathologies, diseases and syndrom...
Multinational evaluation of genetic diversity indicators for the Kunming‐Montreal Global Biodiversity FrameworkNARA Subscribed
Under the recently adopted Kunming‐Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, 196 Parties committed to reporting the status of genetic diversity for all species. To facilitate reporting, three genetic diversity indicators were developed, two of which focus on processes contributing to genetic diversity conservation: maintaining genetically distinct populations and ensuring populations are large enough to maintain genetic diversit...
