Development of a Stability Criterion for Men’s Basketball Shoes During Mediolateral Cutting ManeuversNARA Subscribed
Ankle and knee injuries are common in court sports such as basketball and tennis, where there is an emphasis on cutting maneuvers and cleats are not a viable footwear solution. Such maneuvers generate substantial lateral ground reaction forces with the potential to overcome native anatomic ankle stability. The goal of this study was to develop a simple criterion that could be applied to assess the design of basketball shoes in...
Unraveling a century of global change impacts on winter bird distributions in the eastern United StatesNARA Subscribed
One of the most pressing questions in ecology and conservation centers on disentangling the relative impacts of concurrent global change drivers, climate and land‐use/land‐cover (LULC), on biodiversity. Yet studies that evaluate the effects of both drivers on species’ winter distributions remain scarce, hampering our ability to develop full‐annual‐cycle conservation strategies. Additionally, understanding how groups of species...
Evaluation of protected area effectiveness is critical for conservation of biodiversity. Protected areas that prioritize biodiversity conservation are, optimally, located and managed in ways that support relatively large and stable or increasing wildlife populations. Yet evaluating conservation efficacy remains a challenging endeavor. We used an extensive community science data set, eBird, to evaluate the efficacy of protected...
Evidence is reported for balancing selection acting on variation at major histocompatibility complex (MHC) in wild populations of brown trout Salmo trutta . First, variation at an MHC class I ( satr‐uba )–linked microsatellite locus ( mhc1 ) is retained in small S . trutta populations isolated above waterfalls although variation is lost at neutral microsatellite markers. Second, populations across several catchments are less d...
We assessed the effect of harvest type (bole-only or whole-tree) and vegetation control treatments (initial or annual application of herbicide) on soil C and N at two contrasting sites in the Pacific Northwest. Pretreatment (2003) and posttreatment (2005) soil samples were collected by depth to 60 cm, and a stratified sampling approach based on four surface conditions was used for posttreatment sampling in surface soils. Surfa...
