Non‐Stationary Dry‐Spell Hazard Probabilities for SpainNARA Subscribed
This study provides a comprehensive assessment of long‐term changes in dry‐spell dynamics across Spain for the period 1961–2024, using both classical non‐parametric methods and a novel non‐stationary probabilistic framework applied to exceedance series of dry‐spell durations. Using daily precipitation data from a dense network of quality‐controlled stations, dry‐spells were identified based on four thresholds (0.1, 1, 5, and 1...
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...
This study introduces the first high-resolution hazard probability maps of extreme precipitation for Spain, marking a significant step toward a national climate service for hydrometeorological extremes. Using long-term daily precipitation records from a dense network of stations and incorporating topographic data, the methodology combines the Generalized Pareto distribution with universal kriging to spatially interpolate distr...
Deficiency of the Monocarboxylate Transporter 8 (MCT8) severely impairs thyroid hormone (TH) transport into the brain, disrupting brain development as well as peripheral TH homeostasis. Studies assessing MCT8 expression patterns and tissue-specific pathologies induced by local TH-deficiency are often inconclusive due to unreliable antibody staining and the lack of functional tools to specifically target MCT8-expressing cells....
Induced tomato defenses mediated by jasmonic acid do not have a major effect on the density of predator biological control agentsNARA Subscribed
Plants have developed different defense mechanisms to protect themselves from the attack of herbivores. Plant defenses can be categorized into two types: constitutive , which are present before herbivore attack, and induced , which are activated upon attack. Some herbivores have developed the ability to neutralize either or both types of plant defenses, and plant defenses may act against their own interest when they negatively...
Diversity in Resource Use Strategies Promotes Productivity in Young Planted Tree Species MixturesNARA Subscribed
Mixed‐species forestry is a promising approach to enhance productivity, increase carbon sequestration, and mitigate climate change. Diverse forests, composed of species with varying structures and functional trait profiles, may have higher functional and structural diversity, which are attributes relevant to a number of mechanisms that can influence productivity. However, it remains unclear whether the context‐dependent roles...
Motivation Here, we make available a second version of the BioTIME database, which compiles records of abundance estimates for species in sample events of ecological assemblages through time. The updated version expands version 1.0 of the database by doubling the number of studies and includes substantial additional curation to the taxonomic accuracy of the records, as well as the metadata. Moreover, we now provide an R packag...
Improving harvester yield maps postprocessing leveraging remote sensing data in rice cropNARA Subscribed
Precision Agriculture relies significantly on yield data obtained from combine harvesters, which constitutes a pivotal tool for optimizing crop productivity. Despite its potential, challenges in data accuracy persist, necessitating the development of novel automated postprocessing protocols for yield data refinement. In this paper, different automatic postprocessing protocols were evaluated using remote sensing data, specifica...
