Biological products improved tomato crop growth and altered soil nutrient levels without changing microbial community compositionNARA Subscribed
Background and aims Alternatives to synthetic fertilisers for field-grown crops are needed to increase crop production. This study investigated the application of three commercial biological products, Popul8 (microbial), Eco-Humate (organic-acid) and Eco-Vital® (fish + seaweed) to field-grown tomatoes and their impact on crop growth, soil properties, and the microbiome. Methods Field trials were conducted at two farms in the 2...
Mutual dosing of tungsten, molybdenum and selenium impact anaerobic digestion microbiomeNARA Subscribed
Metals are critical in anaerobic digestion, but their co-occurrence effects on microbiome structure and function are underexplored. This study hypothesized that exposure of methanogenic granules to a trace element (TE) mixture alongside molybdenum (Mo), tungsten (W) or selenium (Se)-would alter (i) extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) protein and carbohydrate content, (ii) microbial composition and function (iii) methanoge...
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...
Precipitation variability interacts with mean precipitation to restructure a semiarid grassland communityNARA Subscribed
Climate forecasts project change not only in the mean of climate variables but also in their variance. If these dual changes interact, then future ecological dynamics will be difficult to predict using current experimental approaches, which typically change the mean or impose a single extreme event, such as drought. We designed a new field experiment to factorially reduce mean precipitation and increase its interannual variabi...
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...
Quantifying Benthic Flux of Mysis Biomass Through Diel Vertical Migration at the Ecosystem ScaleNARA Subscribed
Mysis diluviana is a macroinvertebrate that couples benthic and pelagic habitats on a daily timescale through diel vertical migration (DVM). However, quantifying how much Mysis biomass is exchanged between benthic and pelagic habitats at an ecosystem scale is difficult because of sampling limitations and variability in Mysis DVM behavior related to light and depth. Although Mysis are benthic-pelagic migrators, a portion remain...
The Subtropical Front (STF) and associated biological productivity are topographically locked to the Chatham Rise. Year‐to‐year differences of upper ocean dynamics and associated responses of phytoplankton are valuable for understanding variability in fisheries biomass as well as providing new knowledge of environmental condition for potential seabed mining in this keystone ecosystem. In‐situ observations collected over three...
