Improving GPP and SIF Simulation With a Mechanistic Photosynthesis Model Integrated Into the BEPS FrameworkNARA Subscribed
Accurate representation of plant photosynthesis in terrestrial biosphere models (TBMs) is critical for reliable carbon‐cycle simulations. Most TBMs employ the Farquhar–von Caemmerer–Berry (FvCB) model, which uses an empirical representation of electron transport that limits the simulation of gross primary productivity (GPP) and solar‐induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF) under variable conditions. Here, we present BEPS‐CB6F,...
Sea trout, Salmo trutta , display a wide range of migratory behaviours, and one aspect of variation comes from freshwater migration distance. The overall aim of this study was to determine if offspring of long‐ and short‐distance migrants exhibited phenotypic differences relating to parental migration distance. For that purpose, we conducted several behavioural tests (dyadic contest, boldness scoring and open field test) and m...
The main motivation of this work was to address the challenge of single-molecule functional study of membrane proteins under stable and independently controlled electrical and chemical membrane potentials. Although transmembrane potential is often essential for the function of membrane proteins, current in vitro systems provide only limited options for studying them under biologically relevant conditions. Our experimental assa...
We assembled a European bread wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.) association mapping panel ( n = 480) genotyped using a 90,000 feature single nucleotide polymorphism array, with the aim of identifying genetic loci controlling resistance to four fungal diseases: yellow (stripe) rust (YR), brown (leaf) rust (BR), Septoria tritici blotch (ST) and powdery mildew (PM). Simulations showed our panel to have good power to detect genetic lo...
Contrasting Genomic Diversity and Inbreeding Levels Among Two Closely Related Falcon Species With Overlapping Geographic DistributionsNARA Subscribed
Genomic resources are valuable to examine historical demographic patterns and their effects to better inform management and conservation of threatened species. We evaluated population trends and genome‐wide variation in the near‐threatened Orange‐breasted Falcon ( Falco deiroleucus ) and its more common sister species, the Bat Falcon ( F. rufigularis ), to explore how the two species differ in genomic diversity as influenced b...
LandFrag : A Dataset to Investigate the Effects of Forest Loss and Fragmentation on BiodiversityNARA Subscribed
Motivation The accelerated and widespread conversion of once continuous ecosystems into fragmented landscapes has driven ecological research to understand the response of biodiversity to local (fragment size) and landscape (forest cover and fragmentation) changes. This information has important theoretical and applied implications, but is still far from complete. We compiled the most comprehensive and updated database to inves...
Water stress is a major factor affecting grapevine yield and quality. Standard methods for measuring water stress, such as midday stem water potential (Ψ SWP ), are laborious and time-consuming for intra-block variability mapping. In this study, we investigate water status variability within a 2.42-ha commercial Cabernet Sauvignon block with a standard vertical trellis system, using remote sensing (RS) tools, specifically cano...
Land use change threatens global biodiversity and compromises ecosystem functions, including pollination and food production. Reduced taxonomic α‐diversity is often reported under land use change, yet the impacts could be different at larger spatial scales (i.e., γ‐diversity), either due to reduced β‐diversity amplifying diversity loss or increased β‐diversity dampening diversity loss. Additionally, studies often focus on taxo...
Association of youth climate change worry with present and past mental health symptoms: a longitudinal population-based studyNARA Subscribed
Young people are worried about climate change but the association with current and past mental health symptoms is rarely examined in longitudinal population-based samples. Drawing on a population-based birth cohort from the Canadian province of Quebec ( n = 1325), this study used a cross-over design to (1) test the association between climate change worry at age 23-years and concurrent mental health symptoms assessed on standa...
The thermal expansion of Ti-substituted CaAl12O19NARA Subscribed
CaAl 12 O 19 , which can incorporate Ti as both Ti 3+ and Ti 4+ (charge coupled substitution with Mg 2+ ), is one of the first minerals to condense from a gas of solar composition and is used as a ceramic. It is variously known as hibonite, calcium hexaluminate (CaO.6Al 2 O 3 ), and CA 6 . The lattice parameters and unit cell volumes of Ti-substituted hibonite ( P 6 3 / mmc ) with the formulae CaAl 11.8 Ti 3+ 0.2 O 19 and CaAl...
