This study investigates the age-based life-history traits of two groundfish species, the spotted moray eel ( Gymnothorax moringa ) and squirrelfish ( Holocentrus adscensionis ), found in Ascension Island and St Helena. Both islands are part of the UK Overseas Territories (UKOTs) and are known for their fish biodiversity. The research aims to provide essential life-history information to support sustainable management of these...
Arthropod declines have been reported widely; however, a lack of comprehensive data has hindered our ability to assess their large‐scale generality and drivers. Here, we used a novel and freely available dataset—atmospheric scans from a network of meteorological radars—to quantify aerial abundance of both diurnal and nocturnal arthropods across the United Kingdom, spanning different geographic regions and land cover types. Bas...
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...
Voxel-wise insights into early Alzheimer’s disease pathology progression: the association with APOE and memory declineNARA Subscribed
Longitudinal investigation of the Apolipoprotein E (APOE) genotype’s impact on Alzheimer’s disease (AD) biomarker progression, focusing on amyloid beta (Aβ) accumulation and gray matter (GM) atrophy, integrating cognitive decline and baseline levels. Longitudinal florbetapir-PET and T1-weighted MRI data from 100 cognitively normal (CN) and mild cognitive impaired (MCI) participants both with considerable global Aβ accumulation...
Agroforestry systems, such as shade-grown coffee plantations are particularly well suited to address the challenges of climate change, due to potential synergies between adaptation and mitigation strategies. The traditional knowledge of coffee producers can play a critical role in optimizing agroforestry approaches and shade tree selection to balance biodiversity conservation and local needs. This knowledge was used in a two-s...
Global Marine Flyways Identified for Long‐Distance Migrating Seabirds From Tracking DataNARA Subscribed
Aim To identify the broad‐scale oceanic migration routes (‘marine flyways’) used by multiple pelagic, long‐distance migratory seabirds based on a global compilation of tracking data. Location Global. Time Period 1989–2023. Major Taxa Studied Seabirds (Families: Phaethontidae, Hydrobatidae, Diomedeidae, Procellariidae, Laridae and Stercorariidae). Methods We collated a comprehensive global tracking dataset that included the mig...
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...
Co‐mast: Harmonized seed production data for woody plants across US long‐term research sitesNARA Subscribed
Plants display a range of temporal patterns of inter‐annual reproduction, from relatively constant seed production to “mast seeding,” the synchronized and highly variable interannual seed production of plants within a population. Previous efforts have compiled global records of seed production in long‐lived plants to gain insight into seed production, forest and animal population dynamics, and the effects of global change on m...
