Heterospecific social behavior in primates: insights into the evolutionary roots of pet-keepingNARA Subscribed
Primate interspecific interactions with both other primates and non-primate species range from predator–prey dynamics to affiliative behaviors such as grooming, play, and carrying. While many primates participate in interspecific associations or commensal relationships, to our knowledge interspecific social interactions have never been systematically synthesized. Here, we present the first comprehensive review of such interact...
Stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) has caused unprecedented coral mortality across Florida’s Coral Reef (FCR) since 2014, raising concerns about whether coral restoration can succeed under chronic disease conditions and whether outplanting activities may increase disease transmission risk. As the disease transitioned from epizootic outbreak to enzootic persistence, we conducted a large-scale experimental outplanting to as...
As reef-building coral cover has declined worldwide, coral restoration has become a widespread response towards repopulating degraded reefs. In-situ nurseries have provided refugia for the regrowth of several coral species, yet long-term success following outplanting remains highly variable, particularly when corals are introduced into novel or marginal environments. Additionally, while growth and survivorship are commonly use...
Methane is a potent greenhouse gas, which traps significantly more heat than carbon dioxide over short timescales, but remains underrepresented in models used for projecting future climate scenarios, particularly in permafrost landscapes. Understanding methane dynamics in northern wetlands is critical for improving projections of high‐latitude carbon feedbacks to the global climate system. To address this, we integrated ecolog...
Assessing the integration of social marketing principles in ivory demand management interventions in China and Southeast AsiaNARA Subscribed
Consumer demand for ivory perpetuates the unsustainable and illegal killing of African elephants and other wildlife species. Interventions that aim to change consumer behavior are increasingly recognized as a crucial element of demand management. However, poor design and implementation have limited their effectiveness. We evaluated how ivory demand‐management interventions in China and neighboring Southeast Asian countries ali...
Unprecedented Burning in Tropical Peatlands During the 20th Century Compared to the Previous Two MillenniaNARA Subscribed
Tropical peatland wildfire incidence has risen in recent decades, driven by drainage for land use and intensified by severe droughts with global climate change. These disturbances have altered vegetation structure, disrupted ecosystem functioning, and increased carbon emissions, particularly in Southeast Asia. However, the long‐term history and characteristics of wildfires in tropical peatlands remain largely unknown. Here, we...
Inshore marine coastal zone migration patterns in Atlantic salmon post‐smolts emigrating from eight rivers in north‐east ScotlandNARA Subscribed
Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar , migrate through multiple habitat types, each having the potential to impact differently upon migration success. The inshore marine coastal zone is arguably disproportionately impacted by potential stressors on populations. We investigated the migration of Atlantic salmon post‐smolts ( n = 898) from eight rivers (populations) through the inshore marine coastal zone over a 2‐year period using acous...
Herbivore cues and plant damage-associated compounds jointly alter seed germination and seedling herbivoryNARA Subscribed
While plant defense against herbivory is primarily thought to occur following attack, there is also evidence that plants can detect and respond to pre-attack cues. These cues include chemicals released from damaged conspecifics and kairomones, non-attack-related substances emitted by an herbivore that plants can detect and use to their benefit. It is unknown, however, whether or how plants react to the interaction of these pre...
Assessing mechanisms of intrinsic vulnerability in sharks occupying different marine environmentsNARA Subscribed
The status of many shark species worldwide is concerning due to a combination of their life-history traits and widespread exposure to threats, especially fishing. However, the intrinsic vulnerability of species differ given that life-history traits vary with environmental conditions. Here, we aim to assess the links between sharks’ reproductive strategy, maximum depth recorded, and environment occupied (shelf, deepwater and pe...
The proportion of individuals that are found to have empty stomachs during a survey of a predator population's diet has been used as an indicator of the average individual's state of energy balance and of the degree to which its feeding rate (i.e., its functional response) is saturated with respect to prey availability. As such, the proportion of empty stomachs provides insights into the effects of prey on predators and vice v...
Role of viral coinfection in post-pandemic invasive Group A streptococcal infections in adults, a nation-wide cohort study (iGASWISS)NARA Subscribed
Objective During the winter season of 2022–2023, numerous countries experienced a surge in invasive Streptococcus pyogenes (iGAS) infections. The role of viral coinfections in the post-COVID surge has not been elucidated. We report nation-wide data describing clinical presentation, microbiological characteristics, and associations with viral infection in adults during this period. Methods A multicenter retrospective cohort stu...
