Ecological Processes Shaping Marine Microbial Assemblages Diverge Between Equatorial and Temperate Time‐SeriesNARA Subscribed
Marine microbial communities are structured by a complex interplay of deterministic and stochastic processes, yet how these vary across latitudes remains poorly understood. Most long‐term microbial observatories are restricted to temperate regions, limiting our ability to assess latitudinal contrasts in microbial dynamics. Here, we compare coastal microbial communities from two contrasting marine time‐series stations using sta...
Trophic Interactions Are Key to Understanding the Effects of Global Change on the Distribution and Functional Role of the Brown BearNARA Subscribed
Biotic interactions are expected to influence species' responses to global changes, but they are rarely considered across broad spatial extents. Abiotic factors are thought to operate at larger spatial scales, while biotic factors, such as species interactions, are considered more important at local scales within communities, in part because of the knowledge gap on species interactions at large spatial scales (i.e., the Eltoni...
Congenital enteropathy caused by ezrin deficiencyNARA Subscribed
Ezrin, encoded by EZR , is a central module of epithelial polarity and links membrane proteins to the actin cytoskeleton directly or indirectly through scaffold proteins in the epithelium. Ezrin knockout mice fail to thrive and do not survive past weaning. We identified a homozygous EZR loss-of-function (LoF) variant, c.356dup, by exome sequencing in an infant with intractable diarrhea and failure to thrive, who died from sept...
Global Marine Flyways Identified for Long‐Distance Migrating Seabirds From Tracking DataNARA Subscribed
Aim To identify the broad‐scale oceanic migration routes (‘marine flyways’) used by multiple pelagic, long‐distance migratory seabirds based on a global compilation of tracking data. Location Global. Time Period 1989–2023. Major Taxa Studied Seabirds (Families: Phaethontidae, Hydrobatidae, Diomedeidae, Procellariidae, Laridae and Stercorariidae). Methods We collated a comprehensive global tracking dataset that included the mig...
Minimum information for reporting on the TEER (trans-epithelial/endothelial electrical resistance) assay (MIRTA)NARA Subscribed
Standard information reporting helps to ensure that assay conditions and data are consistently reported and to facilitate inter-laboratory comparisons. Here, we present recommendations on minimum information for reporting on the TEER (trans-epithelial/endothelial electrical resistance) assay (MIRTA). The TEER assay is extensively used to evaluate the health of an epithelial/endothelial cell culture model and as an indicator of...
Human Footprint and Forest Disturbance Reduce Space Use of Brown Bears ( Ursus arctos ) Across EuropeNARA Subscribed
Three‐quarters of the planet's land surface has been altered by humans, with consequences for animal ecology, movements and related ecosystem functioning. Species often occupy wide geographical ranges with contrasting human disturbance and environmental conditions, yet, limited data availability across species' ranges has constrained our understanding of how human pressure and resource availability jointly shape intraspecific...
Animals within social groups respond to costs and benefits of sociality by adjusting the proportion of time they spend in close proximity to other individuals in the group (cohesion). Variation in cohesion between individuals, in turn, shapes important group‐level processes such as subgroup formation and fission–fusion dynamics. Although critical to animal sociality, a comprehensive understanding of the factors influencing coh...
Functional mapping of the somatosensory cortex using noninvasive fMRI and touch in awake dogsNARA Subscribed
Dogs are increasingly used as a model for neuroscience due to their ability to undergo functional MRI fully awake and unrestrained, after extensive behavioral training. Still, we know rather little about dogs’ basic functional neuroanatomy, including how basic perceptual and motor functions are localized in their brains. This is a major shortcoming in interpreting activations obtained in dog fMRI. The aim of this preregistered...
Leading deep-sea research expeditions requires a breadth of training and experience, and the opportunities for Early Career Researchers (ECRs) to obtain focused mentorship on expedition leadership are scarce. To address the need for leadership training in deep-sea expeditionary science, the Crustal Ocean Biosphere Research Accelerator (COBRA) launched a 14-week virtual Master Class with both synchronous and asynchronous compon...
