Species‐Specific Bacterial Associations Emerge From Stochastically Assembled Microbiomes in Northeastern American FirefliesNARA Subscribed
Many insects harbour microbial communities that can profoundly influence the biology of their host. Yet, the relative contribution of random exposure (i.e., stochastic) events and deterministic ecological factors in shaping these communities remains unclear for most taxa. We examined microbiome assembly across 344 firefly ( Coleoptera : Lampyridae ) specimens from the Northeastern United States, spanning 12 species and species...
Topographic Barriers and Lowland Corridors Structure Gene Flow in the Chagas Vector Rhodnius pallescens Across the Isthmian ForestsNARA Subscribed
Aim Biogeographic processes can profoundly shape the connectivity and evolutionary potential of arthropod disease vectors. We investigated how Panama's ecological and topographic transitions structure populations of the kissing bug Rhodnius pallescens , the primary vector of the Chagas disease agent Trypanosoma cruzi in the region. Location Central America. Period Present. Methods Using 3RAD sequencing, we analysed genome‐wide...
Blue suckers [ Cycleptus elongatus (Lesueur, 1817)] are declining in much of their native range, and recent research suggests they may be longer lived than previously estimated. We compared pectoral fin ray and lapillus otolith age estimates and estimated population dynamics parameters from otolith-based ages for a stable blue sucker population near the James River-Missouri River confluence from 2020 to 2022. Length–weight reg...
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...
Geometrical analysis of the 3-D structure of the western Tauern Window (European Eastern Alps)NARA Subscribed
The Tauern Window (TW) in the European Eastern Alps is one of the most prominent tectonic windows on earth. Deeper structural levels of the orogenic wedge are almost completely exposed, which is why complex collisional deformation processes, including indenter tectonics, can be studied. Although the TW has been investigated over decades, its present-day, 3-D geometry is not completely deciphered. However, it provides insights...
Patterns of transcriptomic aging in the hippocampus of rhesus macaques highlight midlife transitionsNARA Subscribed
Patterns of brain aging are generally conserved among primates; however, there is marked variation in the observed rate among individuals, species, and brain regions. The hippocampus is a region particularly susceptible to the aging process. To better understand how the hippocampus changes over the lifespan, we measured gene expression in 96 banked hippocampus samples from adult male and female rhesus macaques aged 3–35 years...
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...
Damage to tropical forests caused by cyclones is driven by wind speed but mediated by topographical exposure and tree characteristicsNARA Subscribed
Each year, an average of 45 tropical cyclones affect coastal areas and potentially impact forests. The proportion of the most intense cyclones has increased over the past four decades and is predicted to continue to do so. Yet, it remains uncertain how topographical exposure and tree characteristics can mediate the damage caused by increasing wind speed. Here, we compiled empirical data on the damage caused by 11 cyclones occu...
