Success of restoration strategies in preventing extirpation of 2 critically endangered coral speciesNARA Subscribed
An unprecedented marine heatwave in 2023 caused widespread coral bleaching and mortality throughout the Caribbean. In the Florida Keys (USA), 2 foundation species, elkhorn coral ( Acropora palmata ) and staghorn coral ( Acropora cervicornis ), were severely affected. These species have been the primary focus of reef restoration in Florida for decades. Substantial losses of these species occurred in outplanted populations, in o...
DEK Loss Induces Task-specific Deficits in Learning and Memory and Reprograms the Hippocampal Transcriptome in MiceNARA Subscribed
DEK is an estrogen-responsive chromatin-remodeling protein broadly expressed in the murine and human brain, with high expression in memory-relevant regions such as the hippocampus. Prior work from our group and others has linked DEK loss to cellular features associated with Alzheimer’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease-related dementias. Notably, our group has demonstrated that DEK expression declines with increasing dementia se...
Halos of herbivory, feeding-preference, and predation risk on contemporary Belizean reefsNARA Subscribed
Biotic interactions in marine ecosystems can create visible patterns on the benthos. An archetypal example of such a pattern is the conspicuous ‘halos’ (i.e., areas largely cleared of macrophytes) that surround many tropical reefs. While early ecological studies identified the role of herbivores and the predators that feed on them in the formation of halos on Caribbean reefs, recent evidence has highlighted the context-depende...
The population of pillar coral, Dendrogyra cylindrus , in Florida was decimated from 2013 to 2020, primarily by the emergence of stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD). Monitoring of survivors from 2021 to early 2025 showed that the population underwent an additional 96% decline in live tissue, a 78% loss in living colonies, and a 55% loss of genotypes. SCTLD continued to be the primary cause of these losses. Although some su...
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...
Fine-grained organic-rich sediments (FGORSs) from anthropogenic impacts are a growing concern for bays and estuaries around the world. This study explores the relationships of infaunal community diversity and species abundances with FGORSs in the Indian River Lagoon and its tributaries. To examine these potential relationships, infauna was collected monthly using a Petite Ponar grab at 16 stations in the central Indian River L...

Spatial Nonstationarity in Phenological Responses of Nearctic Birds to Climate VariabilityNARA Subscribed
Climate change is shifting the phenology of migratory animals earlier; yet an understanding of how climate change leads to variable shifts across populations, species and communities remains hampered by limited spatial and taxonomic sampling. In this study, we used a hierarchical Bayesian model to analyse 88,965 site‐specific arrival dates from 222 bird species over 21 years to investigate the role of temperature, snowpack, pr...
Purpose Power output at the moderate-to-heavy-intensity transition decreases during prolonged exercise, and resilience to this has been termed ‘durability’. The purpose of this study was to assess the relationship between durability and the effect of prolonged exercise on severe-intensity performance, and explore intramuscular correlates of durability. Methods On separate days, 13 well-trained cyclists and triathletes (V̇O 2 p...

Land surface conductance linked to precipitation: Co‐evolution of vegetation and climate in Earth system modelsNARA Subscribed
Vegetation and precipitation are known to fundamentally influence each other. However, this interdependence is not fully represented in climate models because the characteristics of land surface (canopy) conductance to water vapor and CO 2 are determined independently of precipitation. Working within a coupled atmosphere and land modelling framework (CAM6/CLM5; coupled Community Atmosphere Model v6/Community Land Model v5), we...
