This systematic review examines the prevalence, underlying mechanisms, cohort characteristics, evaluation criteria, and cohort types in white matter hyperintensity (WMH) pipeline and implementation literature spanning the last two decades. Following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) guidelines, we categorized WMH segmentation tools based on their methodologies from January 1, 2000, to...
Information on wildlife population structure, demographic history, and adaptations are fundamental to understanding species evolution and informing conservation strategies. To study this ecological context for a cetacean of conservation concern, we conducted the first genomic assessment of the northern bottlenose whale, Hyperoodon ampullatus , using whole‐genome resequencing data ( n = 37) from five regions across the North At...
Measuring Temperature in Coral Reef Environments: Experience, Lessons, and Results from PalauOA Marine
Sea surface temperature, determined remotely by satellite (SSST), measures only the thin “skin” of the ocean but is widely used to quantify the thermal regimes on coral reefs across the globe. In situ measurements of temperature complements global satellite sea surface temperature with more accurate measurements at specific locations/depths on reefs and more detailed data. In 1999, an in situ temperature-monitoring network was...
TRY plant trait database – enhanced coverage and open accessNARA Subscribed
Plant traits—the morphological, anatomical, physiological, biochemical and phenological characteristics of plants—determine how plants respond to environmental factors, affect other trophic levels, and influence ecosystem properties and their benefits and detriments to people. Plant trait data thus represent the basis for a vast area of research spanning from evolutionary biology, community and functional ecology, to biodivers...
Comparative population genomics reveals key barriers to dispersal in Southern Ocean penguinsNARA Subscribed
The mechanisms that determine patterns of species dispersal are important factors in the production and maintenance of biodiversity. Understanding these mechanisms helps to forecast the responses of species to environmental change. Here, we used a comparative framework and genomewide data obtained through RAD ‐Seq to compare the patterns of connectivity among breeding colonies for five penguin species with shared ancestry, ove...
Few studies have combined genetic association analyses with functional characterization of infection‐associated SNP s in natural populations of nonhuman primates. Here, we investigate the relationship between host genetic variation, parasitism and natural selection in a population of red colobus ( Procolobus rufomitratus tephrosceles ) in Kibale National Park, Uganda. We collected parasitological, cellular and genomic data to...
The depth of the thermocline and associated nitricline in the western Pacific warm pool (WPWP) vary over time in response to changes in larger ocean‐atmosphere climate patterns. A shoaling of the nitricline in the WPWP brings nitrate‐rich seawater ( > 4 μ mol kg −1 ) above the base of the euphotic zone, stimulating primary productivity. Here, we test if decadal variability in the nitricline depth is driving changes in regional...

A Global Baseline for Spawning Aggregations of Reef FishesNARA Subscribed
Species that periodically and predictably congregate on land or in the sea can be extremely vulnerable to overexploitation. Many coral reef fishes form spawning aggregations that are increasingly the target of fishing. Although serious declines are well known for a few species, the extent of this behavior among fishes and the impacts of aggregation fishing are not appreciated widely. To profile aggregating species globally, es...
