Observed Linkages Between Marine Heatwaves and Extreme Weather Over Land: A New Zealand Case StudyNARA Subscribed
Marine heatwaves (MHWs) are increasingly prevalent oceanic extremes with the potential to influence adjacent weather and climate over land. This study characterizes the spatio‐temporal variability of MHWs surrounding New Zealand from 1982 to 2020 and examines their relationship with concurrent terrestrial temperature and rainfall anomalies, alongside the broader synoptic‐scale circulation. This observational analysis reveals a...

The Cost of Antivenom: A Cost Minimization Study using the North American Snakebite RegistryNARA Subscribed
Envenomation is a global health issue, with over 9,000 encounters managed in the United States yearly. The introduction of immunoglobulin fragment antivenom has reduced the risk of hypersensitivity. This study compares treatment costs of crotaline envenomation using the Fab and F(ab’) 2 antivenoms as reported to the North American Snakebite Registry (NASBR), a nationwide surveillance tool. Methods This was a retrospective anal...
Instrumented head acceleration measurement devices are commonly used in research studies to determine head acceleration exposure in certain populations. Instrumented mouthguards pair directly to the user’s teeth and offer six-degree-of-freedom measurements. Though many studies have recently used these devices, post-processing techniques vary by study. Other studies have attempted to label impact quality or coupling status, als...
Detecting and Salvaging Head Impacts with Decoupling Artifacts from Instrumented MouthguardsNARA Subscribed
In response to growing evidence that repetitive head impact exposure and concussions can lead to long-term health consequences, many research studies are attempting to quantify the frequency and severity of head impacts incurred in various sports and occupations. The most popular apparatus for doing so is the instrumented mouthguard (iMG). While these devices hold greater promise of head kinematic accuracy than their helmet-mo...
The Influence of Symbiont Identity on the Proteomic and Metabolomic Responses of the Model Cnidarian Aiptasia to Thermal StressNARA Subscribed
We examined the effects of symbiont identity and heat stress on the host metabolome and proteome in the cnidarian–dinoflagellate symbiosis. Exaiptasia diaphana (‘Aiptasia’) was inoculated with its homologous (i.e., native) symbiont Breviolum minutum or a heterologous (i.e., non‐native) symbiont ( Symbiodinium microadriaticum ; Durusdinium trenchii ) and thermally stressed. Integrated metabolome and proteome analyses characteri...
Nitrogen Deposition Weakens Soil Carbon Control of Nitrogen Dynamics Across the Contiguous United StatesNARA Subscribed
Anthropogenic nitrogen (N) deposition is unequally distributed across space and time, with inputs to terrestrial ecosystems impacted by industry regulations and variations in human activity. Soil carbon (C) content normally controls the fraction of mineralized N that is nitrified ( ƒ nitrified ), affecting N bioavailability for plants and microbes. However, it is unknown whether N deposition has modified the relationships amon...
The Toxicology Investigators Consortium 2023 Annual ReportNARA Subscribed
Many recent studies have used boil-and-bite style instrumented mouthguards to measure head kinematics during impact in sports. Instrumented mouthguards promise greater accuracy than their predecessors because of their superior ability to couple directly to the skull. These mouthguards have been validated in the lab and on the field, but little is known about the effects of decoupling during impact. Decoupling can occur for var...
