Grazing Affects Soil Organic Carbon Stocks Directly and Indirectly Through Herbaceous Species Diversity in Sahelian Savanna Ecosystems

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The impact of livestock grazing on soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks in the Sahel has been poorly documented due to a lack of data from different grazing intensities. This study evaluated SOC stocks under four grazing intensities within 0–30 cm soil depth in dry savanna ecosystems of Senegal.

Nutrient pulse scenarios drive contrasting patterns in the functional stability of freshwater phytoplankton

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Climate change is increasing the frequency, intensity, and stochasticity of extreme weather events such as heavy rainfall, storm‐induced mixing, or prolonged drought periods. This results in more variable regimes of dissolved nutrients and carbon in lakes and induces temporal fluctuations in the resource availability for plankton communities ...

Safety and Effect of 12‐Month Ecopipam Treatment in Pediatric Patients with Tourette Syndrome

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Tourette syndrome (TS) is a chronic neurodevelopmental tic disorder with a considerable quality of life (QOL) burden. Objectives The goal was to determine the long‐term safety, tolerability, and clinical effects of ecopipam, a first‐in‐class dopamine D1 receptor antagonist, for TS.

Predictive Factors of Free Flap Volume Evolution in Head and Neck Reconstruction

open access: yesOtolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The aim of our study was to determine the factors influencing the evolution of the total volume and bone volume of free flaps commonly used in head and neck surgery, with a 30‐month prospective study, to establish volume change predictions and thus propose a degree of overcorrection to be expected before reconstruction.

Administrative checkpoints, burdens, and human‐centered design: Increasing interview access to raise SNAP participation

open access: yesJournal of Policy Analysis and Management, EarlyView.
Abstract In this study we describe the potential of human‐centered design principles to identify burdens, reducing the effects of administrative checkpoints. Administrative checkpoints—mandatory requirements that must be satisfied in order to progress in an administrative process—have disproportionate negative effects in excluding the public from ...

Ethnoecological perspectives on environmental stewardship: Tenets and basis of reciprocity in Gitxsan and nłeʔkepmx (Nlaka'pamux) Territories

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Local and Indigenous Peoples steward and protect a significant proportion of biologically diverse ecosystems globally. This fact is increasingly acknowledged by researchers and international organizations, offering both opportunities and challenges at the intersection of Indigenous and western knowledge production in the context of ...

Average Rank and Adjusted Rank Are Better Measures of College Student Success than GPA

open access: yesEducational Measurement: Issues and Practice, Volume 41, Issue 4, Page 23-34, Winter 2022., 2022
Abstract I show that there are better measures of student college performance than grade point average (GPA) by undertaking a fine‐grained empirical investigation of grading within a large public university. The value of using GPA as a measure of comparative performance is undermined by academically weaker students taking courses where the grading is ...

Photo‐Gain Effect in κ‐Ga2O3 UV‐C Photoresistors Induced by Trapping of Photogenerated Holes

open access: yesphysica status solidi (b), EarlyView.
The “photo‐gain effect” amplifying the DC photocurrent of κ‐Ga2O3 UV‐C photoresistors is analyzed by means of 2D numerical simulations and linked to the capture of photogenerated holes by deep donor levels, probably associated with oxygen vacancies.

Determining the potential use of biosurfactants in preventing endodontic infections

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Oral Sciences, Volume 130, Issue 6, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Microbial biofilms play a dominant role in the failure of endodontic therapies. Bacterial adhesion is the first step in the establishment of biofilms, activating the host immune response leading to tissue damage. Biosurfactants are microbe‐derived tensioactive molecules with latent anti‐adhesive and anti‐microbial activity.
