Optimal heat stress metric for modelling heat‐related mortality varies from country to countryNARA Subscribed
Combined heat and humidity is frequently described as the main driver of human heat‐related mortality, more so than dry‐bulb temperature alone. While based on physiological thinking, this assumption has not been robustly supported by epidemiological evidence. By performing the first systematic comparison of eight heat stress metrics (i.e., temperature combined with humidity and other climate variables) with warm‐season mortali...
Improved Fracture Segmentation from Unwrapped Drill-Core Images Using an Innovative Two-Stage Segmentation ApproachNARA Subscribed
While machine learning (ML) provides a great tool for image analysis, obtaining accurate fracture segmentation from high-resolution core images is challenging. A major reason is that the segmentation quality of large and detailed objects, such as fractures, is limited by the capacity of the segmentation branch. This challenge can be seen in the Mask Region-based Convolutional Neural Network (Mask R-CNN), which is a common and...
Rapid assessment of management options for promoting stock rebuilding in data‐poor species under climate changeNARA Subscribed
The development of species recovery plans requires considering likely outcomes of different management interventions, but the complicating effects of climate change are rarely evaluated. We examined how qualitative network models (QNMs) can be deployed to support decision making when data, time, and funding limitations restrict use of more demanding quantitative methods. We used QNMs to evaluate management interventions intend...
Migrations between different habitats are key events in the lives of many organisms. Such movements involve annually recurring travel over long distances usually triggered by seasonal changes in the environment. Often, the migration is associated with travel to or from reproduction areas to regions of growth. Young anadromous Atlantic salmon ( Salmo salar ) emigrate from freshwater nursery areas during spring and early summer...
A model of non-elemental olfactory learning in DrosophilaNARA Subscribed
The physical oceanography and chlorophyll distribution in Willapa Bay and the adjacent coastal ocean were measured during an upwelling‐downwelling wind cycle in late May 1999. Coastal conditions were determined shipboard during two sets of five cross‐shelf transects conducted 4 d apart, and instrument moorings simultaneously recorded wind velocity in the nearshore zone and biophysical water properties within Willapa Bay. The r...
