The escalating frequency and severity of marine heatwaves are driving factors behind mass coral bleaching, necessitating both rapid emission reductions and the development of scalable intervention tools. Shading coral to reduce irradiance stress is a promising approach, yet most studies focus on static structures, and few include recovery dynamics. Here, we tested the efficacy of a laboratory-scale seawater fogging system as a...
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...
Addressing urgent conservation issues, such as the drastic declines of North American migratory birds, requires creative, evidence‐based, efficient, and collaborative approaches. The abundance of over 50% of monitored North American shorebird populations has declined by over 50% since 1980. To address these declines, we developed a partnership of scientists and practitioners called the Shorebird Science and Conservation Collec...
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...
Durability of the moderate-to-heavy intensity transition can be predicted using readily available markers of physiological decouplingNARA Subscribed
Purpose To assess relationships between heart rate (HR), ventilation (̇ $$\dot V$$ V ˙ E ), and respiratory frequency (F R ) decoupling and durability of the first ventilatory threshold (VT 1 ), and the strength of practical models to predict power output at VT 1 during prolonged exercise. Methods Durability of VT 1 was assessed via measurements of power output at VT 1 before and after ~ 2.5-h of initially moderate-intensity c...
A photophysiological model of coral bleaching simulates declines and recovery during an emulated multi-doldrum marine heatwave eventNARA Subscribed
Mass coral bleaching events have become increasingly frequent since the 1980s as sea surface temperatures have risen. Extremes of light and temperature stress leading to coral bleaching can develop when doldrum meteorological conditions occur during a marine heatwave event. The coral bleaching model simulates bleaching by tracking the build-up of reactive oxygen species driven by temperature-mediated, light-driven oxidative st...
At harvest, the water content of apples and pears is at its maximum, about 83–85% by mass. The rate of fruit water loss after harvest is a function of three factors: the fruit surface area, the epidermis water vapour permeance, and the difference in internal and external fruit water vapour pressure. However, the water vapour pressure difference is the only factor that can be controlled during storage, i.e. by altering the stor...
Impacts of Climate Change Interventions on Biodiversity, Water, the Food System and Human Health and Well‐BeingNARA Subscribed
Climate change threatens biodiversity, water, food and human health and well‐being. Rapid, sustained mitigation and adaptation actions can benefit all these elements of the nexus. Key transitions in energy, land and marine ecosystems, urban areas, industry and society are essential for climate change mitigation, adaptation and sustainable development. These transitions require interdisciplinary research, policy support and soc...
