Purpose Deepwater Horizon oil spill (DWHOS) responders potentially experienced multiple stressors. We examined associations between DWHOS deployment-related stressor patterns and neurological and endocrine/metabolic conditions among U.S. Coast Guard active duty responders who completed post-deployment surveys (n = 3102). Methods Deployment-related stressor patterns were identified using principal component analysis of self-rep...
The use of pumping for hydraulic characterisation of dykesNARA Subscribed
Faults and dykes can control groundwater flow, acting as barriers, conduits, or composite conduit–barrier systems. This study investigates dyke hydraulic behaviour using numerical modelling of field-scale pumping tests at two sites in Western Australia, supported by a uniquely detailed hydrogeological dataset. At each site, pumping tests were conducted across dykes that impeded groundwater flow, as evidenced by asymmetric draw...
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...
A Dominant Founder Lineage Has Possible Fitness Costs for the Endangered Mexican Grey WolfNARA Subscribed
The Mexican grey wolf ( Canis lupus baileyi ) is an endangered and genetically distinct subspecies of grey wolf adapted to the warm climates of the southwestern United States and Mexico. Following centuries of eradication efforts, Mexican grey wolves were protected under the Endangered Species Act in 1976, prompting an international ex situ breeding program to preserve their genetic legacy. Seven remnant wolves founded the thr...
First record of a piebald leucistic smallspotted catshark Scyliorhinus canicula in a special area of conservation, UKNARA Subscribed
Colour aberrations are widely reported in vertebrates, but seldom for elasmobranchs. Shark trophic level varies ontogenetically and according to species, so atypical colouration may have implications for ecological fitness both as predator and prey. Here, we present, to our knowledge, the first and only record of a piebald leucistic smallspotted catshark Scyliorhinus canicula from Welsh waters, specifically in the Cardigan Bay...
The Australasian snapper ( Chrysophrys auratus ) is a candidate for offshore aquaculture in New Zealand. The culture of snapper requires knowledge of the best locations for farms and a key variable is water temperature. The oxygen‐ and capacity‐limited thermal tolerance (OCLTT) hypothesis suggests fish performance is optimised at the temperature that maximises absolute aerobic scope (AAS), whereas the ‘multiple performances–mu...
Molecular characterisation of a novel citrus-infecting emaravirus, citrus emaravirus 1NARA Subscribed
The application of high-throughput sequencing (HTS) has accelerated the discovery of novel viruses and the genome sequencing of poorly characterised viruses in fruit crops, revealing a greater complexity of plant viromes than previously understood. Here, we report the identification and genomic characterisation of a novel emaravirus, tentatively named "citrus emaravirus 1" (CiEV1), from Citrus limon leaves collected in the Nor...
Coastal areas are an important source of food and a valuable tourism asset for communities, but also highly dynamic and heterogeneous environments. Understanding how marine species respond to the variability of their habitat is essential to sustainably manage coastal resources. Here we investigate the distribution of highly mobile marine species in relation to fine‐scale fronts ( a fronts for most species considered. Specifica...

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...
