The escalating frequency and severity of marine heatwaves are driving factors behind mass coral bleaching, necessitating both rapid emission reductions and the development of scalable intervention tools. Shading coral to reduce irradiance stress is a promising approach, yet most studies focus on static structures, and few include recovery dynamics. Here, we tested the efficacy of a laboratory-scale seawater fogging system as a...
Correlation between DNA methylation and transcriptomic changes in golden Asian sea bass ( Lates calcarifer ): An integrated approachNARA Subscribed
Lates calcarifer , commonly known as barramundi perch, Asian sea bass or barramundi, is a significant aquaculture species across the Indo‐Pacific. Barramundi typically exhibit a silver to bronze wild‐type (WT) skin colour, with occasional golden (xanthic) variants of commercial interest. Although previous studies have identified gene expression differences between golden and WT variants, the genetic mechanism driving golden co...
A Review of a Decade of Anadromous Salmonid Hatchery (And Stocking) Research: Insights for Policy, Management and a Changing ClimateNARA Subscribed
Hatcheries and stocking programmes have long been a cornerstone of fisheries management, seen as tools for fisheries enhancement and/or conservation of threatened populations. Their use draws controversy, however, from a growing body of research over the last 50 years suggesting that stocking can have negative consequences for wild stocks, and yet remains valued in many contexts. This study systematically reviews a decade (201...
Plants employ multiple strategies to adapt to their growth environment. Characterizing key dimensions in plant trait space is important for understanding functional diversity within ecosystems. Leaf and root functional traits have been studied in the context of resource economics, but whether they covary, and through which mechanisms, is still debated. We investigated this in subtropical forests by sampling root and leaf trait...
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...
National climate change impact assessments underestimate the potential of autonomous adaptationNARA Subscribed
Central Europe is projected to lose up to 25% of its crop productivity by 2050 because of climate change, posing significant challenges to agricultural systems and food security. Effective adaptation strategies must consider not only domestic impacts but also global climate effects, including international trade dynamics. We performed a multilevel analysis of climate change impacts on agriculture, using the Czech Republic, a l...
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...
The Impact of Submerged Aquatic Vegetation Removal on Fish Predation in a Tidal River ChannelNARA Subscribed
Proliferation of non-native submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV) can trigger widespread ecosystem changes, and has caused declines in native fish populations around the world. One pathway for these declines is non-native SAV may attract fish predator species by creating habitat structure, altering lower trophic food webs, or affecting predator–prey interactions. It is presumed that non-native vegetation removal will favor native...
Influence of global climate modes on wildfire occurrence in the contiguous United States under recent and future climatesNARA Subscribed
Predictable modes of climate variability, such as the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO), have a major influence on regional weather patterns, an important control on wildfire occurrence. Although these global climate modes have been associated with historical variability in wildfire occurrence in the United States and are used to forecast seasonal wildfire risk, precise information about the spatial pattern and magnitude of...
Coral life cycle dynamics are poorly understood in most reefs, especially at the large geographic scales commensurate with ocean transport, genetic flow, and other synoptic scale processes. We present a spatially explicit, large-scale, and multi-temporal study of coral settlement along a 30 km long reef system in the Southwest portion of Hawaiʻi Island. Here, we focused on interannual variability in coral recruitment from 2021...
