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...
Advancements in genomic crop techniques and considerations for regulation and food safetyNARA Subscribed
Advancements in genomic crop techniques have led to the development of new genetic technologies, such as base- and prime editing, but improvements have been made to existing conventional techniques as well. Fields in which these advancements occur include targeted mutagenesis, conventional random mutagenesis, and developments with null segregants, e.g. , crops from which transgenic elements have been crossed out. In this revie...

SNAPSHOT USA 2019–2023: The First Five Years of Data From a Coordinated Camera Trap Survey of the United StatesNARA Subscribed
Motivation SNAPSHOT USA is an annual, multicontributor 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 specie...
Rewetting peatlands is required to limit carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) emissions, however, raising the groundwater level (GWL) will strongly increase the chance of methane (CH 4 ) emissions which has a higher radiative forcing than CO 2 . Data sets of CH 4 from different rewetting strategies and natural systems are scarce, and quantification and an understanding of the main drivers of CH 4 emissions are needed to make effective peatl...
Serious gaming as potential training tool for recognition of adverse drug reactions: side-effect exposure—medical education (SeeMe)NARA Subscribed
Purpose The recognition of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) is an important part of daily clinical work. However, medical education in this field is mostly drug-based and does not address adequately the complexity of this field regarding individual risk factors and polypharmacy. This study investigates the potential of the web-based serious game SeeMe (side-effect exposure—medical education) in pharmacological education of medica...
Long‐range transport of littoral methane explains the metalimnetic methane peak in a large lakeNARA Subscribed
In large and stratified lakes, substantial methane stocks are often observed within the metalimnion. The origin of the methane (CH 4 ) accumulated in the metalimnion during stratification, which can sustain significant emissions during convective mixing, is still widely debated. While commonly attributed to the transport of methane produced anaerobically ex situ, recent evidence suggests that oxic in situ methane production co...
Wind dispersed tree species have greater maximum heightNARA Subscribed
Aim We test the hypothesis that wind dispersal is more common among emergent tree species given that being tall increases the likelihood of effective seed dispersal. Location Americas, Africa and the Asia‐Pacific. Time period 1970–2020. Major taxa studied Gymnosperms and Angiosperms. Methods We used a dataset consisting of tree inventories from 2821 plots across three biogeographic regions (Americas, Africa and Asia‐Pacific),...
Individuals with a germline CDKN2A pathogenic variant (PV) have a highly increased life time risk of melanoma and pancreatic cancer. This cross-sectional study assessed the attitudes among toward genetic testing, family planning, and preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) in confirmed CDKN2A PV carriers and individuals with a 50% risk of the PV (at-risk carriers) using of a one-time questionnaire. A total of 537 individuals wer...
Reading tea leaves worldwide: Decoupled drivers of initial litter decomposition mass‐loss rate and stabilizationNARA Subscribed
The breakdown of plant material fuels soil functioning and biodiversity. Currently, process understanding of global decomposition patterns and the drivers of such patterns are hampered by the lack of coherent large‐scale datasets. We buried 36,000 individual litterbags (tea bags) worldwide and found an overall negative correlation between initial mass‐loss rates and stabilization factors of plant‐derived carbon, using the Tea...
