Local and Landscape‐Level Environmental Conditions Drive Habitat Selection Across Terrestrial Mammal SpeciesNARA Subscribed
Aim Animal movements are a fundamental process affecting communities and ecosystems. Quantifying habitat selection across species and habitats is key for understanding how animals respond to environmental change. Currently, we lack comparative studies that examine how habitat selection varies across species traits and landscapes. We aim to quantify global patterns of habitat selection to help understand the fundamental drivers...
Quantifying animal movements is necessary for answering a wide array of research questions in ecology and conservation biology. Consequently, ecologists have made considerable efforts to identify the best way to estimate an animal's home range, and many methods of estimating home ranges have arisen over the past half a century. Most of these methods fall into two distinct categories of estimators that have only recently been d...
Future Climate and Land Use Change Will Equally Impact Global Terrestrial Vertebrate DiversityNARA Subscribed
Aim Terrestrial biodiversity is impacted by both climate and land use change. Yet, future biodiversity projections have rarely considered these two drivers in combination. In this study, we aim to assess the individual and combined impact of future climate and land use change on global terrestrial vertebrate diversity under a ‘sustainability’ (SSP1‐RCP2.6) and an ‘inequality’ (SSP4‐RCP6.0) scenario. Location Global land, exclu...
Predictions of southern migration timing in coastal sharks under future ocean warmingNARA Subscribed
Projected redistribution of marine species due to ocean warming may undermine current conservation efforts. Yet, there have been few studies on how ocean warming may alter migration timing. Across 5 years of acoustic telemetry data (2018–2022), we determined environmental drivers of southward migration timing for 6 migratory shark species from summer habitats in the Northwest Atlantic Ocean. We then forecasted how migratory ti...
Single intracerebroventricular TNFR2 agonist injection impacts remyelination in the cuprizone modelNARA Subscribed
The development of therapeutics that enhances the regeneration of myelin sheaths following demyelination is predicted to prevent neurodegeneration. A promising target to enhance remyelination is the immunomodulatory cytokine tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) and its receptors TNFR1 and TNFR2. TNFR2 on oligodendrocyte lineage cells and microglia coordinates different protective functions, such as proliferation of oligodendrocy...
The semi‐arid Australian continental inland is increasingly subject to climatic extremes such as drought and flooding. Combined with the exceptionally low topographic relief characteristic of this region, hydroclimatic extremes can have an enormous impact on the land surface. Nevertheless our understanding of dryland hydrologic connectivity and earth‐surface response remains poorly understood and largely unquantified. Here we...
