Addressing Bias in Non‐Probability Fisheries Surveys Using Multilevel Regression and Poststratification ApproachesNARA Subscribed
Quantifying harvest of fish stocks is challenging as census data are often unavailable, so surveys are required. Traditional probability‐based surveys use random sampling to obtain representative data that can be scaled to estimate total impact. However, these surveys are costly, so cheaper, non‐probability, citizen science surveys of self‐selected participants are becoming commonplace. Respondents in these surveys may not be...
The Effects of Land‐Use Dynamics on Avian Phylogenetic Diversity Across Island EcosystemsNARA Subscribed
Aim To test whether forest extent and recent forest‐cover change are associated with avian phylogenetic diversity and community‐level evolutionary value across islands. Location Seven islands spanning Borneo and Wallacea in the Malay Archipelago. Taxon Terrestrial birds. Methods We sampled 1410 sites (2010–2022). We calculated phylogenetic diversity (PD), mean phylogenetic distance (MPD), mean nearest taxon distance (MNTD) and...
The hyperiid amphipod Brachyscelus rapacoides is a warm-water species associated with gelatinous zooplankton. In the Mediterranean it has been reported in association with Rhopilema nomadica in both Israel and Turkey. Here, we document the first record of B. rapacoides in Greek waters, representing the first confirmed record for Europe, based on both morphological examination and DNA barcoding of the mitochondrial COI gene. Sp...
Interpretable deep learning reveals spatiotemporal MRI features of brain aging that align with neurodegenerationNARA Subscribed
Cortical thinning and atrophy are hallmarks of brain aging that have been characterized using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Brain aging involves many neuroanatomic features whose effects on brain structure remain unexplored. To address this challenge, we trained interpretable deep neural networks (DNNs) to estimate brain age (BA) from T 1 -weighted ( T 1 w) MRI. By identifying MRI features unapparent to humans, DNNs can fi...
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) disproportionately affects women and carriers of the apolipoprotein E ε4 allele (APOE4), yet little is known about how sex and APOE interact to influence white matter (WM) integrity during disease progression. We integrated diffusion MRI and matched blood transcriptomic data to investigate these interactions and their underlying biological mechanisms. WM microstructure was quantified using diffusion te...

Linking crystal shape and dynamic undercooling: a new framework for inferring magmatic crystallization historiesNARA Subscribed
Magmas contain crystals exhibiting diverse shapes and sizes, yet the relationship between crystal shape (specifically aspect ratio) and undercooling ( $$\Delta T$$ ), the driving force for crystallization, remains poorly constrained. Crystal shape should correlate with undercooling because undercooling governs the growth regime (interface-controlled versus diffusion-controlled) and thus the resulting crystal form. Prior experi...
