Body Size Regulates Niche Overlap Asymmetry in the Subtropical Andes Rain Shadow: Isotopic Paleoecology of Oligocene South American Ungulates

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study provides the first isotopic analysis of Oligocene mammals from Quebrada Fiera, Mendoza, Argentina, filling a major gap in South American paleontology. It reveals a latitudinal gradient in aridity due to the Andean rain shadow and highlights the role of (semi)permanent water bodies in sustaining diverse herbivore communities. Additionally, it

The PhenoChange network protocol for monitoring leaf phenology in tropical dry ecosystems using phenocameras

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Tropical dry ecosystems (TDEs) cover half of the tropics and play a key role in global carbon dynamics. TDEs present distinct canopy and ground layers that often exhibit contrasting phenological patterns. On‐the‐ground observations of phenology by the human eye, though valuable, may suffer from limited temporal resolution and observer biases ...

Tratamiento de aguas residuales mediante reactores anaeróbicos de placas verticales paralelas en acrílico

open access: yesBiotecnología en el Sector Agropecuario y Agroindustrial, 2011
Algunos filtros anaeróbicos con lecho de piedra construidos en el departamento del Cauca (Colombia), están presentando problemas de colmatación. Sise reemplaza la piedra por placas verticales paralelas, se elimina el problema de obstrucción.

Enhanced fish detection sensitivity in aquatic systems using environmental RNA

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Environmental RNA (eRNA) can potentially augment the biological monitoring ability of the established environmental DNA (eDNA) application in conservation. Despite faster degradation, environmental RNA could offer unique advantages: it may help reduce the legacy signal compared to eDNA, provide insights into physiological status through gene ...

16S/18S metabarcoding versus culture for aetiological assessment in infectious keratitis: A prospective paired‐sample study

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Infectious keratitis (IK) is a vision‐threatening condition with diverse microbial aetiologies, yet conventional culture‐based diagnostics often have limited sensitivity. We investigated whether 16S/18S rRNA amplicon‐based next‐generation sequencing (NGS) can enhance aetiological assessment when used alongside standard microbiological ...

Meaningful Community Engagement—The Foundations of Global Oral Health Research

open access: yesCommunity Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global burden of oral diseases and shocking inequalities highlight the failure of current oral health systems and policies. One of the limitations with existing approaches is that they rely almost exclusively on professional perspectives with minimal input from communities, and in particular disadvantaged populations.

Behavioral interventions to reduce demand for threatened freshwater turtles as pets

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Growing demand for freshwater turtles as pets has fueled illegal trade and accelerated wild population declines, underscoring the need for theory‐based demand‐reduction interventions. We conducted a three‐part randomized controlled trial with active turtle keepers (n = 1800) in China to test conservation‐ and legality‐framed messages by ...
