The earlier you know, the smoother you act: anticipatory control in solo and dyadic jugglingNARA Subscribed
Intercepting a moving object with our hands requires that the moving object and the hand come into contact at some point along the object’s trajectory. Hand movement can be planned in advance so that the hand reaches the interception location along this trajectory at the correct moment in time. To enable such anticipatory behavior, the object’s trajectory may be predicted based on sensory information collected before movement...
Population Genomics of a Rare and a Common Wood–Inhabiting Fungal Species Across EuropeNARA Subscribed
Many species have become threatened during the Anthropocene, requiring conservation strategies based on biological evidence. Wood‐inhabiting fungi face multiple threats due to a complex interplay of a short lifespan, removal of dead wood as a resource and climate change. Furthermore, rare fruiting events might restrict dispersal via spores, leading to a significant population genetic structure. Yet, little is known about the g...

Riverbed depth-specific microplastics distribution and potential use as process markerNARA Subscribed
Riverbed sediments have been identified as temporary and long-term accumulation sites for microplastic particles (MPs), but the relocation and retention mechanisms in riverbeds still need to be better understood. In this study, we investigated the depth-specific occurrence and distribution (abundance, type, and size) of MPs in river sediments down to a depth of 100 cm, which had not been previously investigated in riverbeds. I...

In memoriam Thomas GebelNARA Subscribed
There is an urgent need for countries to transition their national food and land-use systems toward food and nutritional security, climate stability, and environmental integrity. How can countries satisfy their demands while jointly delivering the required transformative change to achieve global sustainability targets? Here, we present a collaborative approach developed with the FABLE—Food, Agriculture, Biodiversity, Land, and...
Reforming China’s fertilizer policies: implications for nitrogen pollution reduction and food securityNARA Subscribed
Reactive nitrogen (N) is a requisite nutrient for agricultural production, but results in greenhouse gas and air and water pollution. The environmental and economic impacts of N fertilizer use in China are particularly relevant, as China consumes the largest amount of N fertilizer in the world to meet its soaring food demand. Here, we use an agro-economic land system model (MAgPIE) in combination with a difference-in-differenc...
Multiple stressors co-occurring in coastal waters are of increasing concern to local fisheries. Many economically, culturally, or ecologically important species (e.g., oysters, crabs, pteropods) in the Pacific Northwest are already directly affected by ocean acidification (OA), warming, and hypoxia. Additional indirect economic impacts on the finfish industry are possible due to losses of prey species. Because of strong season...
Microvascular and proteomic signatures overlap in COVID-19 and bacterial sepsis: the MICROCODE studyNARA Subscribed
Aims Although coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and bacterial sepsis are distinct conditions, both are known to trigger endothelial dysfunction with corresponding microcirculatory impairment. The purpose of this study was to compare microvascular injury patterns and proteomic signatures in COVID-19 and bacterial sepsis patients. Methods and results This multi-center, observational study included 22 hospitalized adult COVID-1...

Microvascular dysfunction in COVID-19: the MYSTIC studyNARA Subscribed
Rationale Pre-clinical and autopsy studies have fueled the hypothesis that a dysregulated vascular endothelium might play a central role in the pathogenesis of ARDS and multi-organ failure in COVID-19. Objectives To comprehensively characterize and quantify microvascular alterations in patients with COVID-19. Methods Hospitalized adult patients with moderate-to-severe or critical COVID-19 ( n = 23) were enrolled non-consecutiv...
Mammalian carnivores are considered a key group in maintaining ecological health and can indicate potential ecological integrity in landscapes where they occur. Carnivores also hold high conservation value and their habitat requirements can guide management and conservation plans. The order Carnivora has 84 species from 8 families in the Neotropical region: Canidae; Felidae; Mephitidae; Mustelidae; Otariidae; Phocidae; Procyon...
