Three Generations of NARCliM : Evaluation of Precipitation, Temperature and Their Extremes Over the CORDEX Australasia DomainNARA Subscribed
The NSW and Australian Regional Climate Modelling Version 2.0 (NARCliM2.0) is the latest generation of regional climate modelling project, building on the success of NARCliM versions 1.0 and 1.5. Evaluating and comparing the three generations is crucial to ensure scientific credibility, improve model skill, enhance understanding of climate processes, and provide reliable information for climate risk assessment and adaptation p...
The San Joaquin Valley is one of the most intensive oil and gas and agricultural production regions of the United States, yet the regional groundwater salinity distribution is not well defined, particularly near the western margin of the valley where salinity is highly variable. Airborne electromagnetic (AEM) surveys were conducted to improve the understanding of the three-dimensional variations in groundwater salinity in the...
Marine megafauna species are affected by a wide range of anthropogenic threats. To evaluate the risk of such threats, species’ vulnerability to each threat must first be determined. We build on the existing threats classification scheme and ranking system of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species by assessing the vulnerability of 256 marine megafauna species to 23 at‐sea threat...

Evaluation and Projection of Drought Frequency, Intensity and Duration Over AustraliaNARA Subscribed
Using two generations of regional climate simulations (NARCliM1.0 and NARCliM1.5) downscaled from CMIP3 and CMIP5 global climate models, three drought indices: the SPI (Standardised Precipitation Index), aSPI (agricultural SPI), and SPEI (Standardised Precipitation‐Evapotranspiration Index) are assessed for Australia. Biases in simulated drought frequency vary among models, while consistency is observed in duration and intensi...
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...
Animals within social groups respond to costs and benefits of sociality by adjusting the proportion of time they spend in close proximity to other individuals in the group (cohesion). Variation in cohesion between individuals, in turn, shapes important group‐level processes such as subgroup formation and fission–fusion dynamics. Although critical to animal sociality, a comprehensive understanding of the factors influencing coh...

To house or oust: Honey bee (Apis mellifera) colonies can evaluate and evict drones of low qualityNARA Subscribed
Across the animal kingdom, males advertise their quality to potential mates. Males of low reproductive quality, such as those that are sick, may be excluded from mating. In eusocial species, there is some evidence that reproductive females gauge the quality of their mates. However, males often spend much more time with non-reproductive females when being raised or when returning from unsuccessful mating flights. Do non-reprodu...
