Salmonella enterica serovars co‐exist sporadically and at low abundance in US mid‐Atlantic irrigation ponds

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Spring or rain‐fed ponds are frequent features on US mid‐Atlantic farms. The need to conduct preharvest agricultural water assessments to identify microbial hazards, as required by the US Produce Safety Rule, highlights knowledge gaps pertaining to pond water adequacy for vegetable production.

A comparison of monitoring methods for inferring demographics of a pond‐breeding amphibian population over 14 years

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We used 4 sampling methods to estimate or index the abundance and sex ratio of spotted salamanders (Ambystoma maculatum) over 14 years. The present study highlights the importance of considering individual heterogeneity in capture probability when estimating abundance of pond‐breeding amphibians from capture data with imperfect detection.

CardiacDP: An R package for rapid automated cardiac data processing, integrating autocorrelation, a genetic algorithm, and a tracking index

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Heart rate is a popular proxy of physiological responses, but the highly complex and variable cardiac data obtained from organisms such as marine invertebrates pose a major challenge to efficient and accurate data processing. To address this, we developed a novel, integrative algorithm for rapid and automated cardiac data processing.

Isoetes ×atruensis (Isoetaceae – Lycopodiopsida), a new interspecific sterile hybrid from Rajasthan of Western India

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Isoetes ×atruensis hyb. nov. is shown to be a triploid (2n = 3× = 33 + 1) sterile interspecific hybrid between diploid (2n = 2× = 22 + 1) I. coromandelina and tetraploid (2n = 4× = 44 + 1) I. rajasthanensis. It has been found in two locations in Rajasthan, India.

Linking regional and global functional trait data: insights from mammal communities in a fragmented Atlantic Forest landscape

Oikos, EarlyView.
Accurate functional trait data are essential for understanding ecosystem services and processes in fragmented landscapes. We evaluated whether the global EltonTraits 1.0 database adequately represents the functional structure of mammal communities in forest fragments and restoration sites in a highly fragmented Atlantic Forest landscape.
