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...
The coupling of green and brown food webs regulates trophic position in a montane mammal guildNARA Subscribed
Food web ecology has revolutionized our understanding of ecological processes, but the drivers of food web properties like trophic position (TP) and food chain length are notoriously enigmatic. In terrestrial ecosystems, above‐ and belowground systems were historically compartmentalized into “green” and “brown” food webs, but the coupling of these systems by animal consumers is increasingly recognized, with potential consequen...
Integrating knowledge on green infrastructure, health and well-being in ageing populations: Principles for research and practiceNARA Subscribed
Ageing and urbanisation pose significant challenges for public health and urban planning. Ageing populations are at particular risk from hazards arising from urbanisation processes, some of which are in turn exacerbated by climate change. One approach for mitigating the negative effects of urbanisation on ageing populations is the leveraging of the beneficial effects of urban green infrastructure as a public health interventio...
Developing a list of invasive alien species likely to threaten biodiversity and ecosystems in the European UnionNARA Subscribed
The European Union ( EU ) has recently published its first list of invasive alien species ( IAS ) of EU concern to which current legislation must apply. The list comprises species known to pose great threats to biodiversity and needs to be maintained and updated. Horizon scanning is seen as critical to identify the most threatening potential IAS that do not yet occur in Europe to be subsequently risk assessed for future listin...
Reframing AppealsNARA Subscribed
We describe the development of a tree‐ring chronology network in Nepal that is suitable for reconstructing temperature‐related climate forcing over the past few hundred years. The network is composed of 32 tree‐ring chronologies and is represented by five indigenous tree species. An empirical orthogonal function analysis of the chronologies over the common interval 1796–92 indicates the existence of coherent large‐scale signal...
Summary findings of the fourth international radiocarbon intercomparison (FIRI)(1998–2001)NARA Subscribed
Interlaboratory comparisons have been widely used in applied radiocarbon science. These are an important part of ongoing quality assurance (QA) programmes, which are vital to the appropriate interpretation of the evidence provided by the 14 C record in Quaternary applications (including climate change and environmental reconstruction). International comparisons of laboratory performance are an essential component of the qualit...
