To determine whether long-term residential air pollution [AP; ozone (O₃) and fine particulate matter (PM₂.₅)] is associated with (1) incident mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or Alzheimer’s disease (AD), (2) biomarkers of core and AD-relevant pathology, and (3) whether these relationships are moderated by APOE4+/- (carrier/non-carrier of one or both ε4 alleles) status or mediated by neuroinflammation. Sample included 795 partic...

Vernal ponds are vital components of forest ecosystems in the eastern United States, providing biodiversity support, water filtration, and flood regulation. Climate change may exacerbate hydrological fluctuations, altering the communities these seasonal wetlands support. This study examines the effects of drying disturbances on macroinvertebrate communities in vernal ponds, focusing on comparing biodiversity metrics before and...

Anadromous rainbow smelt ( Osmerus mordax , [Mitchill 1814]) are found along the northeast Atlantic coastline of North America, with their range now limited to north of Cape Cod, Massachusetts, USA. Although their anadromous life cycles are described broadly, gaps remain regarding how adult rainbow smelt use estuaries post‐spawning, including movement behaviors, habitats used, and specific timing of emigration to coastal water...

To promote sustainable food production, the European Union (EU) aims for a 25% organic agriculture area and a reduction of agricultural nutrient pollution by 50% by 2030. Organic farming is designed to rely on nutrient circularity, it has limited phosphorus (P) sources permitted, influencing the spatial distribution for P demand. Using dataset form the Farm Accountancy Data Network (FADN), this study quantifies and map the amo...

Rock avalanches in fjord environments can cause direct catastrophic damage and trigger secondary submarine landslides and tsunamis. These are well-documented in Greenland, Norway, and Alaska but have gone largely unreported in the extensive fjord terrain of the eastern Canadian Arctic. We provide the first inventory of rock avalanche deposits in northeastern Baffin Island—a region characterized by moderate to high seismic haza...

Dungeness crab ( Metacarcinus magister ) have significant socioeconomic value, but are threatened by ocean acidification (OA) and other environmental stressors that are driven by climate change. Despite evidence that adult harvests are sensitive to the abundance of larval populations, relatively little is known about how Dungeness megalopae will respond to these stressors. Here we evaluate the ability to use micro-computed tom...
