An increase in soil pore water pressure is the typical trigger for the majority of landslides caused by rainfall. Atmospheric river storms, common to the west coast of North America during the winter season, can deliver landslide triggering rainfall resulting in severe impacts to coastal communities. Using a network of hydrologic monitoring stations situated within landslide-prone terrain in the San Francisco Bay area of Calif...
Nutrient Enrichment Increases Grassland Biomass Sensitivity to Interannual Precipitation VariationNARA Subscribed
Primary production underpins much of ecosystem functioning and is often limited by nutrient and water availability. Ongoing global increases in nutrient inputs and interannual precipitation variability are thus likely to impact primary production, with unclear consequences for interannual variability in plant biomass. We used data from 35 grasslands in the Nutrient Network coordinated fertilization experiment to test if nutrie...
Dialogue, inclusion, and adaptation in a remote marine sanctuary: evidence from Flower Garden BanksNARA Subscribed
Interdisciplinary, stakeholder-engaged research is increasingly being used for managing climate change in social-ecological systems. We apply a Collaborative Adaptive Experimental Governance lens to the Flower Garden Banks National Marine Sanctuary, a remote, relatively pristine coral reef system ~130–190 km offshore in the Gulf of Mexico, where biodiversity protection coexists with recreation and offshore energy. We coupled p...
Biological products improved tomato crop growth and altered soil nutrient levels without changing microbial community compositionNARA Subscribed
Background and aims Alternatives to synthetic fertilisers for field-grown crops are needed to increase crop production. This study investigated the application of three commercial biological products, Popul8 (microbial), Eco-Humate (organic-acid) and Eco-Vital® (fish + seaweed) to field-grown tomatoes and their impact on crop growth, soil properties, and the microbiome. Methods Field trials were conducted at two farms in the 2...
No evidence for assortative mating in the Atlantic PuffinNARA Subscribed
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...
The orangefin barb, Enteromius eutaenia – a small‐sized smiliogastrin barb characterised by orange/yellow fins, a thickened and serrated last unbranched dorsal‐fin ray, a dark mid‐lateral stripe and a sheath of enlarged scales at the base of dorsal fin – is considered widely distributed across southern Africa. Distinct phenotypic groups suggest unrecognised species‐level diversity, but taxonomic progress has been limited by th...
Marine megafauna species are affected by a wide range of anthropogenic threats. To evaluate the risk of such threats, species’ vulnerability to each threat must first be determined. We build on the existing threats classification scheme and ranking system of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species by assessing the vulnerability of 256 marine megafauna species to 23 at‐sea threat...
Aotearoa New Zealand’s marine carbon cycle in a changing climate – Current understanding and future directionsNARA Subscribed
The marine system plays a critical role in the global climate cycle, as a major control of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO 2 ). Marine primary production (photosynthesis) and remineralisation of organic carbon (respiration, degradation) determine the amount of CO 2 sequestered in marine sediments and deep‐water environments on century to millennial timescales. The stocks and fluxes of the marine carbon cycle are susceptible to...
Museum Genomics Reveals Temporal Genetic Stasis and Global Genetic Diversity in Arabidopsis thalianaNARA Subscribed
Global patterns of population genetic variation through time offer a window into evolutionary processes that maintain diversity. Over time, lineages may expand or contract their distribution, causing turnover in population genetic composition. At individual loci, migration, drift and selection (among other processes) may affect allele frequencies. Museum specimens of widely distributed species offer a unique window into the ge...
