Relationship of temperature with declines and persistence of Myotis lucifugus after white‐nose syndromeNARA Subscribed
White‐nose syndrome (WNS), caused by the fungus Pseudogymnoascus destructans (Pd), ranks among the most devastating wildlife diseases in recent history and is driving severe declines in North American bats. Identifying environmental factors that influence both the severity of population crashes and the potential for population persistence is essential for effective mitigation. We used a long‐term dataset from hibernacula acros...
SNAPSHOT USA 2024: Year 6 of the Coordinated National Camera Trap Survey of the United StatesNARA Subscribed
Motivation SNAPSHOT USA is an annual, multi‐contributor camera trap survey of mammals across the United States. The growing SNAPSHOT USA dataset is intended for tracking the spatial and temporal responses of mammal populations to changes in land use, land cover and climate. These data will be useful for exploring the drivers of spatial and temporal changes in relative abundance and distribution, as well as the impacts of speci...
Exploring the data demands and global opportunities for reconstructing morphological responses to climate changeNARA Subscribed
There is growing evidence that morphological change is a widespread response to the warming climate. The empirical basis for understanding this process has, to date, largely been correlative analyses of morphological time series. However, it is not clear what constitutes sufficient temporal sampling for assessing long-term morphological change. We analyzed two long-term high-quality morphological datasets, one including 33 spe...
Geometrical analysis of the 3-D structure of the western Tauern Window (European Eastern Alps)NARA Subscribed
The Tauern Window (TW) in the European Eastern Alps is one of the most prominent tectonic windows on earth. Deeper structural levels of the orogenic wedge are almost completely exposed, which is why complex collisional deformation processes, including indenter tectonics, can be studied. Although the TW has been investigated over decades, its present-day, 3-D geometry is not completely deciphered. However, it provides insights...
Patterns of transcriptomic aging in the hippocampus of rhesus macaques highlight midlife transitionsNARA Subscribed
Patterns of brain aging are generally conserved among primates; however, there is marked variation in the observed rate among individuals, species, and brain regions. The hippocampus is a region particularly susceptible to the aging process. To better understand how the hippocampus changes over the lifespan, we measured gene expression in 96 banked hippocampus samples from adult male and female rhesus macaques aged 3–35 years...
Environmental Variation Influences Genome Evolution in Hispaniolan Trunk Anoles ( Anolis distichus )NARA Subscribed
Environmental variation often drives evolutionary processes like population differentiation, local adaptation and speciation. We used genome‐scale data to investigate the contribution of environmental variation to evolution of the North Caribbean bark anole ( Anolis distichus ), a widespread common lizard that exhibits impressive phenotypic variation across varying habitats on the island of Hispaniola. We obtained new double‐d...
SNAPSHOT USA 2019–2023: The First Five Years of Data From a Coordinated Camera Trap Survey of the United StatesNARA Subscribed
Motivation SNAPSHOT USA is an annual, multicontributor camera trap survey of mammals across the United States. The growing SNAPSHOT USA dataset is intended for tracking the spatial and temporal responses of mammal populations to changes in land use, land cover and climate. These data will be useful for exploring the drivers of spatial and temporal changes in relative abundance and distribution, as well as the impacts of specie...
The fast fashion industry is notorious for wicked environmental and social problems, such as exploitative resource use, high amounts of waste, excessive pollution, below-living wages and unsafe working conditions. Addressing these problems calls for a systemic view on the industry with the goal of minimising the intake of natural resources into the system as well as the output of waste. However, thus far, most solution attempt...
Damage to tropical forests caused by cyclones is driven by wind speed but mediated by topographical exposure and tree characteristicsNARA Subscribed
Each year, an average of 45 tropical cyclones affect coastal areas and potentially impact forests. The proportion of the most intense cyclones has increased over the past four decades and is predicted to continue to do so. Yet, it remains uncertain how topographical exposure and tree characteristics can mediate the damage caused by increasing wind speed. Here, we compiled empirical data on the damage caused by 11 cyclones occu...
Invasive annual grasses can promote ecosystem state changes and habitat loss in the American Southwest. Non-native annual grasses such as Bromus spp . a nd Schismus spp. have invaded the Mojave Desert and degraded habitat through increased fire occurrence, severity, and shifting plant community composition. Thus, it is important to identify and characterize the areas where persistent invasion has occurred, identifying where su...
