The latest hypothesis regarding the source of enhanced neural activation from resistance training is the reticulospinal rather than the corticospinal tract, based on invasive animal and emerging human data. The present study employed a six-week isometric resistance training intervention in a randomized controlled design to address this knowledge gap. Thirty-nine healthy, untrained males (age ~23 y, sustained contraction group...
Circadian phenotype is associated with diurnal variation in human exercise performanceNARA Subscribed
Purpose Time-of-day variation in exercise performance is well established, but the contribution of circadian phenotype to the magnitude of these differences remains unclear. This study examined diurnal variation in aerobic exercise performance and determined whether chronotype and sleep timing were associated with morning–evening differences in performance. Methods Twenty-four healthy young adults (12 male, 12 female) complete...
Evaluating a structured expert elicitation approach for adaptive conservation management based on lessons from five years in practiceNARA Subscribed
Adaptive management of threatened species relies on having ex ante estimates of species’ responses to different interventions. Structured expert elicitation is often used to generate these estimates, but comparisons of these expert‐predicted outcomes with observed results are rare. This study aims to evaluate the utility of expert elicitation for adaptive management in the New South Wales Saving our Species program in Australi...
Effect of six weeks ubiquinol supplementation on mitochondrial respiratory function and exercise capacity in healthy malesNARA Subscribed
Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ 10 ) is an integral component of the mitochondrial electron transfer system. Most studies have administered the oxidised form of CoQ 10 (ubiquinone) and observed no effects on mitochondrial respiratory function or endurance exercise performance. The reduced form of CoQ 10 , ubiquinol (UQH 2 ), has greater bioavailability than ubiquinone, but the effects of UQH 2 supplementation on mitochondrial respiratory fu...
Bayesian hierarchical stock–recruitment models for setting conservation limits for Atlantic salmon stocks in ScotlandNARA Subscribed
Atlantic salmon ( Salmo salar L.) populations in Scotland are subject to active management and conservation practices which require biological reference points (BRPs), specifically conservation limits, defined at the level of the stock. Acquiring the data necessary to independently derive these BRPs for all managed populations in Scotland is prohibitive, motivating the use of Bayesian hierarchical stock–recruitment models. The...
The Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) is expected to decline dramatically over the 21st century, with severe impacts for Northern Hemisphere climate. After 20 years of sustained monitoring in the subtropics, a detectable AMOC weakening trend is now beginning to emerge. However, continuous observations at subpolar latitudes are currently too short-lived to determine any weakening signal above the large-amplitud...
