An experimental approach to assess the combined effects of multiple stressors on a large vertebrate speciesNARA Subscribed
The design of experiments to investigate the combined effects of multiple stressors requires exposing target organisms to multiple combinations of stressor doses. Concurrent manipulation of stressors is often infeasible with wildlife, but long‐lasting health effects allow individual health to be used as an integrator of prior stressor exposure. The population of bottlenose dolphins in Barataria Bay, Louisiana, experienced long...
Global patterns and regional insights into kelp forest protection, restoration, and stewardshipNARA Subscribed
Kelp forests are among the most extensive and productive coastal ecosystems, yet they remain underrepresented in global conservation policy despite widespread declines driven by interacting global- (i.e., ocean warming, marine heatwaves) to local-scale stressors. At the same time, kelp conservation and restoration efforts are expanding rapidly across regions, but measures of success and syntheses tend to primarily focus on eco...
Background&Aims Monitoring belowground soil–plant interactions in the field remains challenging and limits our ability to inform and improve agricultural management. Our primary objective was to develop two‑dimensional (2D) maps of soil and root properties using a minimally destructive, paired soil-root co‑sampling strategy in a long‑term, small‑plot experiment. Our secondary objective was to test two hypotheses: H1) soil and...
The increased demand for highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) testing in milk highlights the critical need for well-characterized samples that enable meaningful evaluation of current detection methods. In this study, we focus on the development and rigorous characterization of artificially contaminated spiked milk samples, forming the foundation for reliable assessment of assay performance. By using reverse transcriptase d...

Diversity and functional group composition drive biogeographic patterns in marine biogenic structural complexityNARA Subscribed
Biogenic structural complexity is a key driver of biodiversity and ecosystem functioning, yet its ecological and environmental determinants remain poorly understood across broad biogeographic scales. Here, we conducted standardized 90‐day field experiments at 16 coastal sites, spanning a 41‐degree latitudinal gradient, using naturally assembled marine fouling communities on settlement panels. We measured rugosity as our metric...
Prediction of cognitive test scores: a comparison of brain structure, health, demographic, and cognitive data across adulthoodNARA Subscribed
Cognitive performance prediction may help identify early cognitive decline. However, the heterogeneity of research findings impedes the identification of key predictors. This study used 21,877 participants (25–74 years) from the German National Cohort (NAKO Gesundheitsstudie, NAKO) to systematically predict cognitive test scores based on brain structure, demographic, health-related, and cognitive data. Importantly, validation...
