Ecosystem metabolism (e.g., gross primary production [GPP], respiration [R], and net ecosystem production) integrates the activity of aerobic organisms and is an indicator of environmental change. Microplastics (i.e., particles 1–5 mm) are widespread in freshwater ecosystems and are colonized by biofilms and other organisms. However, microplastics' effects on ecosystem‐level processes including metabolism or other gas fluxes i...

The Breeding Bird Survey of the United KingdomNARA Subscribed
Motivation Information on species' population trends is essential to assess species' conservation status, make informed environmental decisions and ultimately reduce biodiversity loss. Robust population trends require a long‐term monitoring programme, often using citizen scientists, that ideally generates representative and unbiased data from the study area. Here we present the dataset of the Breeding Bird Survey, the main sch...
Interplay of education and DNA methylation age on cognitive impairment: insights from the Health and Retirement StudyNARA Subscribed
Few studies have assessed the association of educational attainment on dementia and cognitive impairment through DNA methylation age acceleration, while accommodating exposure-mediator interaction effects. We evaluated the mediation role of six epigenetic clocks with dementia, cognitive impairment non-dementia, and normal cognition, while accommodating exposure-mediator interaction effects. To understand the joint association...
Why a strategic shift in action is needed to recognise and empower Indigenous plant pathology knowledge and researchNARA Subscribed
Plant pathology researchers play a pivotal role in thought leadership and its translation to action regarding the recognition and demonstration of the value of Indigenous knowledge and science. For many scientists, navigating the space of Indigenous rights and perspectives is challenging. In pursuit of a cultural shift in research and development within the field of plant pathology, the 2019–2021 Management Committee of the Au...
New Breath Diagnostics for Fungal DiseaseNARA Subscribed
Purpose of Review Diagnosis of fungal disease etiology is often difficult, compounded by inaccurate or delayed diagnostic methods. Breath-based biomarkers are being investigated as a novel target for clinical diagnostics. This review aims to summarize recent advancements, identify gaps, and discuss future research directions for breath-based fungal diagnostics. Recent Findings Studies conducted in vitro, in animal models, and...
