Comparing mass balance-based nutrient management planning tools to support crop fertilisation decisionsNARA Subscribed
Nutrient management plan (NMP) tools aim to enhance crop production while minimising environmental harm from over-fertilisation by aligning applications with crop demands and with soil and atmospheric conditions. The characteristics of 14 widely used NMP tools from nine countries (Austria, Bulgaria, China, Czech Republic, Hungary, Italy, New Zealand, Spain, and United Kingdom) were compared. All tools employed a mass balance a...
Key factors of the deranged antiviral response in elderly patients with COVID-19: a machine-learning analysisNARA Subscribed
Age is a well-known risk factor to develop severe viral respiratory infections, including severe COVID-19. This study aimed to identify the biological alterations linked to severe disease in elderly patients with COVID-19. For this purpose, we employed a derivation cohort with 450 SARS-CoV-2 infected and unvaccinated patients admitted to hospital wards and a validation cohort with 244 SARS-CoV-2 infected and unvaccinated patie...
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...
Beyond the NAO : The East Atlantic Pattern's Role in Early 20th‐Century Meteorological Droughts in Western EuropeNARA Subscribed
The North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) and the East Atlantic (EA) pattern are the primary winter modes of large‐scale atmospheric variability in the North Atlantic. While EA is generally considered secondary to NAO, recent studies have reported that during the early 20th century, EA was the leading mode of variability instead of NAO. This study builds on that finding to characterise North Atlantic winter atmospheric circulation...
Induced tomato defenses mediated by jasmonic acid do not have a major effect on the density of predator biological control agentsNARA Subscribed
Plants have developed different defense mechanisms to protect themselves from the attack of herbivores. Plant defenses can be categorized into two types: constitutive , which are present before herbivore attack, and induced , which are activated upon attack. Some herbivores have developed the ability to neutralize either or both types of plant defenses, and plant defenses may act against their own interest when they negatively...
Diversity in Resource Use Strategies Promotes Productivity in Young Planted Tree Species MixturesNARA Subscribed
Mixed‐species forestry is a promising approach to enhance productivity, increase carbon sequestration, and mitigate climate change. Diverse forests, composed of species with varying structures and functional trait profiles, may have higher functional and structural diversity, which are attributes relevant to a number of mechanisms that can influence productivity. However, it remains unclear whether the context‐dependent roles...
Motivation Here, we make available a second version of the BioTIME database, which compiles records of abundance estimates for species in sample events of ecological assemblages through time. The updated version expands version 1.0 of the database by doubling the number of studies and includes substantial additional curation to the taxonomic accuracy of the records, as well as the metadata. Moreover, we now provide an R packag...
