Comprehensive analysis of epigenetic clocks reveals associations between disproportionate biological ageing and hippocampal volumeNARA Subscribed
The concept of age acceleration, the difference between biological age and chronological age, is of growing interest, particularly with respect to age-related disorders, such as Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). Whilst studies have reported associations with AD risk and related phenotypes, there remains a lack of consensus on these associations. Here we aimed to comprehensively investigate the relationship between five recognised meas...
Purpose of Review Managed retreat will be inevitable where other adaptation options, such as protective structures or building restrictions, provide only temporary respite or are otherwise uneconomic, technically impractical or both. Here, we focus on the implementation of pre-emptive managed retreat, providing examples of how it can be sequenced, socialised and given the governance enablers necessary for implementation. Recen...
Concurrent improvement and deterioration of epilimnetic water quality in an oligotrophic lake over 37 yearsNARA Subscribed
Single‐lake studies offer an opportunity for understanding, predicting, and mitigating local or regional threats to lake ecosystems. Our goal was to understand how concurrent environmental stressors such as climate change, eutrophication, and salinization affect long‐term lake water quality. We report epilimnetic changes in 18 water‐quality parameters collected at seven sites from 1980 to 2016 in Lake George, a large oligotrop...
A survival guide to Landsat preprocessingNARA Subscribed
Landsat data are increasingly used for ecological monitoring and research. These data often require preprocessing prior to analysis to account for sensor, solar, atmospheric, and topographic effects. However, ecologists using these data are faced with a literature containing inconsistent terminology, outdated methods, and a vast number of approaches with contradictory recommendations. These issues can, at best, make determinin...
Spatiotemporal Relationships between Climate and Whitebark Pine Mortality in the Greater Yellowstone EcosystemNARA Subscribed
Whitebark pine (Pinus albicaulis) serves as a subalpine keystone species by regulating snowmelt runoff, reducing soil erosion, facilitating the growth of other plants, and providing food for wildlife. Mountain pine beetle (Dendroctonus ponderosae) is an ideal bioindicator of climate change, because its life cycle is temperature-dependent. Western North America is currently experiencing the largest outbreak of mountain pine bee...
