We have attempted to re-establish bay scallops to the Virginia, U.S.A. coastal bays and document the dynamics of the restoration effort. Bay scallops ( Argopecten irradians ) once flourished in the eelgrass ( Zostera marina ) of the Virginia coastal bays. Eelgrass wasting disease led to declines, and both eelgrass and scallops were completely lost after a 1933 hurricane. The Virginia Institute of Marine Science (VIMS) led a su...
High Site Fidelity and Elevated δ¹⁵N in Bonefish (Albula vulpes) Suggest Localized Wastewater Stress in a Marine National ParkNARA Subscribed
Coastal zones are subjected to many anthropogenic stresses that operate on multiple spatial scales. Understanding how these stressors interact with the movement and resource ecology of mobile species is critical for effective conservation and management. Biscayne National Park (BNP) is adjacent to Miami (U.S.) and supports an economically important recreational fishery for bonefish ( Albula vulpes ). Within BNP, the western re...
We used a high-resolution (1/12°) Modular Ocean Model version 6 implementation for the Northwest Atlantic Ocean (MOM6-NWA12) to dynamically downscale Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory Earth System Model version 4.1 (GFDL-ESM4.1) projections for the 21st century. Simulations were conducted under four different Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 emission scenarios. MOM6-NWA12 accurately simulates the spatial patte...
Interpretable deep learning reveals spatiotemporal MRI features of brain aging that align with neurodegenerationNARA Subscribed
Cortical thinning and atrophy are hallmarks of brain aging that have been characterized using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Brain aging involves many neuroanatomic features whose effects on brain structure remain unexplored. To address this challenge, we trained interpretable deep neural networks (DNNs) to estimate brain age (BA) from T 1 -weighted ( T 1 w) MRI. By identifying MRI features unapparent to humans, DNNs can fi...
More than half of La Niña occurrences are multiyear events, lasting for at least two consecutive summers and tend to be associated with above average summer rainfall over southern Africa. Over southeastern Africa, it is found that double year events exhibit wet conditions much less consistently than triple year events during mid to late austral summer. Here, seasonal and sub-seasonal composites of atmospheric fields are used t...
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) disproportionately affects women and carriers of the apolipoprotein E ε4 allele (APOE4), yet little is known about how sex and APOE interact to influence white matter (WM) integrity during disease progression. We integrated diffusion MRI and matched blood transcriptomic data to investigate these interactions and their underlying biological mechanisms. WM microstructure was quantified using diffusion te...
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...
