Evaluating population impacts of predation by owls on storm petrels in relation to proposed island mouse eradication

Ecosphere, 2019
We quantify the expected demographic benefit to a seabird of conservation concern, the ashy storm‐petrel Oceanodroma homochroa, from the proposed eradication of introduced house mice Mus musculus on the South Farallon Islands, California. A key objective

Locally Preferred Structure and Frustration in Glassforming Liquids: A Clue to Polyamorphism? [PDF]

, 2002
We propose that the concept of liquids characterized by a given locally preferred structure (LPS) could help in understanding the observed phenomenon of polyamorphism.

Antagonism of kinin effects on epithelia by Hoe 140: apparently competitive and non‐competitive interactions [PDF]

British Journal of Pharmacology, 1992
Hoe‐140, a potent kinin receptor antagonist, was investigated for its ability to inhibit the effects of lysylbradykinin (kallidin) on a cultured colonic epithelium, HCA‐7 Colony 29, derived from a human adenocarcinoma. Measurements of electrogenic chloride secretion (as short circuit current), and of intracellular Ca2+ (from Fura‐2 fluorescence) were ...

Evaluating the influence of anthropogenic landscape change on wolf distribution: implications for woodland caribou

Ecosphere, 2016
Across much of the range of woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou), predator–prey dynamics have changed as a result of large‐scale industrial development.

Refuge‐mediated apparent competition in plant–consumer interactions

Ecology Letters, 2009
AbstractAt the intersection of consumer behaviour and plant competition is the concept of refuge‐mediated apparent competition: an indirect interaction whereby plants provide a refuge for a shared consumer, subsequently increasing consumer pressure on another plant species.

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

Host Range Expansion and Dual Ecological Roles of an Invasive African Seed Predator on Native and Introduced Plants in Hawai‘i

Plants
Invasive seed predators can severely affect the reproduction of long-lived trees, especially when host range expansion occurs. The beetle Specularius impressithorax (Chrysomelidae: Bruchinae), native to Africa, has become established in Hawaiʻi where it ...

Global warming intensifies the interference competition by a poleward-expanding invader on a native dragonfly species

Royal Society Open Science, 2023
Rapid climate warming has boosted biological invasions and the distribution or expansion polewards of many species: this can cause serious impacts on local ecosystems within the invaded areas.
