Improving inferences from coyote (Canis latrans) surveys across Illinois using integrated state-space modelsNARA Subscribed
Anthropogenic influences on landscapes changed wildlife communities immensely over the last century. One notable example of human-derived change is the expansion of coyote ( Canis latrans ) populations following the extirpation of apex carnivores and the inception of industrial agriculture in North America. In Illinois, USA, the Department of Natural Resources estimates relative abundance of coyotes using a variety of survey t...
Sea Urchin Removal as a Tool, Not a Solution: Practical Lessons for Kelp Restoration in Aotearoa New ZealandNARA Subscribed
The increasing awareness of the extent of urchin barrens and impacts of sea urchin overgrazing on rocky reefs in Aotearoa New Zealand has led to a rapid increase in the use of sea urchin removal as a tool for kelp forest restoration. Here, we review these restoration projects, focusing on three case studies, with the aim to provide context on what urchin removal does and does not achieve and guidance on when, where and how it...
Climate Attribution in Fishery Stock Assessment: Case Studies From the Northeast U.S. Groundfish StocksNARA Subscribed
Climate change poses an unprecedented risk to fisheries ecosystems and economies globally. Ocean warming has led to observed geographic shifts and changes in the productivity of fish stocks. Due to the rapid pace of change in many of the world's oceans, there is a critical need to develop and apply scientific knowledge and tools that can help account for non‐stationarity and integrate climate and ecosystem drivers into fishery...
In memoriam: Carl J. CarranoNARA Subscribed
This article is a celebration of the life and work of Carl J. Carrano who, from a childhood in Long Island, New York, built a career in bioinorganic chemistry, especially in the context of metal uptake and halogen metabolism in microbes and marine organisms.
Ethics in archaeobotany: identifying current issues and initiating a declaration of principlesNARA Subscribed
This article presents the first systematic assessment of ethical concerns specific to archaeobotanical research, focusing on principles and values. Conducted by an international group of archaeobotanists, the study used an anonymous online survey to document experiences and perceptions within the archaeobotanical community with the aim of raising awareness, identifying prevalent good practices and noting points for improvement...
Leptospira interrogans serovar Pomona infections cause periodic outbreaks in California sea lions (CSLs; Zalophus californianus ) and sporadic deaths in phocids. However, the frequency of infection and associated health impacts remain uncharacterized in sympatric threatened southern sea otters (SSOs; Enhydra lutris nereis ), which serve as important sentinels of coastal health. Given the broad impacts of L. interrogans on othe...
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...
