Fine‐Scale Ecological Biomonitoring in a Large, Complex Agriculturally Impacted Watershed via eDNA MetabarcodingNARA Subscribed
DNA‐based approaches utilizing high‐throughput sequencing (HTS) (e.g., DNA metabarcoding) have revolutionized ecological biomonitoring by providing higher sample throughput, greater reproducibility, and better cost‐benefits compared to traditional morphology‐based bioassessment studies. Here, we utilized DNA metabarcoding in a watershed in Ontario (Canada) dominated by agricultural land uses. Our aim is to understand patterns...
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...
Early life-cycle biology and nursery suitability of the southern bull kelp (Durvillaea potatorum)NARA Subscribed
The large fucoid alga Durvillaea potatorum (southern bull kelp) has been identified as a suitable species for offshore seaweed aquaculture due to its large size, preference for wave-exposed sites, and high levels of bioproducts. However, there is a limited understanding of its reproduction and early life-cycle biology and a lack of scalable nursery techniques. We conducted experiments assessing: 1) gamete release, fertilisatio...
Over the past decade, the estimation of water requirements in almond orchards has improved through the application of remote sensing models like the Two-Source Energy Balance (TSEB) model using various remote sensing platforms. However, there is limited understanding of how canopy-induced shadows influence surface reflectance and thermal infrared (TIR) signals particularly from small Unmanned Aircraft System (sUAS) imagery in...
