Parasitism is widespread among fishes in nature and can have significant impacts on individuals, populations, and communities. The family Cymothoidae includes over 380 species of parasitic isopods that infect a wide variety of host fishes, mostly in tropical and subtropical oceans. Despite their conspicuous nature, spatiotemporal patterns of infestation and effects on hosts have been studied for only a small percentage of spec...
Coral-dwelling Caribbean gobies exhibit distinct skin microbiota compared to other sympatric speciesNARA Subscribed
Microbial communities fundamentally shape ecosystem function and biodiversity across all biological systems through complex dynamics. In coral reef ecosystems, understanding the dynamics of these microbial communities has become critical for predicting reef responses to environmental stressors. Fish skin microbiota are highly susceptible to environmental changes and may vary significantly across species and geographic location...
SNAPSHOT USA 2024: Year 6 of the Coordinated National Camera Trap Survey of the United StatesNARA Subscribed
Motivation SNAPSHOT USA is an annual, multi‐contributor camera trap survey of mammals across the United States. The growing SNAPSHOT USA dataset is intended for tracking the spatial and temporal responses of mammal populations to changes in land use, land cover and climate. These data will be useful for exploring the drivers of spatial and temporal changes in relative abundance and distribution, as well as the impacts of speci...
Interlaboratory clinical chemistry parameter variation in seven-day acute hydrazine toxicity studies in the Sprague-Dawley ratNARA Subscribed
Clinical chemistry retains its position as a cornerstone of toxicological assessment, yet inter-laboratory variability in baseline values remains a challenge for the integration and interpretation of multisite datasets. This study leveraged a publicly available clinical chemistry database to assess the impact of inter-laboratory variability in response to hydrazine-induced steatosis. Seventeen clinical chemistry and physico-ch...
Autonomous observations enhance our ability to observe the biological carbon pump across diverse carbon export regimesNARA Subscribed
The expansion of autonomous observation platforms offers vast opportunities for analyzing ocean ecosystems and their role in carbon export. As part of the EXport Processes in the Ocean from RemoTe Sensing campaign, we autonomously measured the productivity regimes in two contrasting end‐member ecosystem states. The first campaign occurred in the subpolar North Pacific near Ocean Station Papa (Site 1), characterized by iron lim...
The Consortium for Metabonomic Toxicology (COMET) studies was designed to model metabolic responses to organ- and mechanism-specific toxins to predict acute drug toxicity in rats. A range of clinical chemical parameters were measured in 7-day toxicology studies for 86 toxins eliciting a range of organ- and mechanism-specific effects. Additionally, 21 surgical or physiological stressors were evaluated to identify physiological...
SNAPSHOT USA 2019–2023: The First Five Years of Data From a Coordinated Camera Trap Survey of the United StatesNARA Subscribed
Motivation SNAPSHOT USA is an annual, multicontributor camera trap survey of mammals across the United States. The growing SNAPSHOT USA dataset is intended for tracking the spatial and temporal responses of mammal populations to changes in land use, land cover and climate. These data will be useful for exploring the drivers of spatial and temporal changes in relative abundance and distribution, as well as the impacts of specie...
Hexanucleotide repeat expansions (HREs) in the chromosome 9 open reading frame 72 ( C9orf72 ) gene are the most frequent genetic cause of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Both are debilitating neurodegenerative conditions affecting either motor neurons (ALS) in the brain and spinal cord or neurons in the frontal and/or temporal cortical lobes (FTD). HREs undergo repeat-associated non-ATG (...
