Assessing the efficacy and cost‐effectiveness of integrating autonomous recording units and point‐count surveys for population monitoring of northern bobwhite (Colinus virginianus)

Ecological Solutions and Evidence
Autonomous recording units (ARUs) have emerged as a useful tool for monitoring a wide range of acoustically signalling wildlife species in a cost‐effective manner, but estimating abundance from acoustic data can be challenging.

Daily pattern of flight activity of Aedes albifasciatus in Central Argentina

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1995
Aedes albifasciatus is an important common mosquito in Central Argentina. Its a confirmed vector of the Western Equine Encephalitis and is responsible for loss of milk production in dairy cattle during peak populations.

Robustness of close‐kin mark–recapture estimators to dispersal limitation and spatially varying sampling probabilities

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Close‐kin mark–recapture (CKMR) is a method for estimating abundance and vital rates from kinship relationships observed in genetic samples. CKMR inference only requires animals to be sampled once (e.g., lethally), potentially widening the scope of ...

Inoculum selection influences the biochemical methane potential of agro-industrial substrates [PDF]

, 2015
Obtaining a reliable estimation of the methane potential of organic waste streams in anaerobic digestion, for which a biochemical methane potential (BMP) test is often used, is of high importance.

Bracken: estimating species abundance in metagenomics data

PeerJ Computer Science, 2016
Metagenomic experiments attempt to characterize microbial communities using high-throughput DNA sequencing. Identification of the microorganisms in a sample provides information about the genetic profile, population structure, and role of microorganisms within an environment.

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

Global coverage of cetacean line-transect surveys : status quo, data gaps and future challenges [PDF]

, 2012
Knowledge of abundance, trends and distribution of cetacean populations is needed to inform marine conservation efforts, ecosystem models and spatial planning.

Sequence determinants of RNA G‐quadruplex unfolding by Arg‐rich regions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We show that Arg‐rich peptides selectively unfold RNA G‐quadruplexes, but not RNA stem‐loops or DNA/RNA duplexes. This length‐dependent activity is inhibited by acidic residues and is conserved among SR and SR‐related proteins (SRSF1, SRSF3, SRSF9, U1‐70K, and U2AF1).

Beyond Pixel-Wise Unmixing: Spatial–Spectral Attention Fully Convolutional Networks for Abundance Estimation

Remote Sensing, 2023
Spectral unmixing poses a significant challenge within hyperspectral image processing, traditionally addressed by supervised convolutional neural network (CNN)-based approaches employing patch-to-pixel (pixel-wise) methods.
