A systematic review evaluating the performance of eDNA methods relative to conventional methods for biodiversity monitoring

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
The rapid adoption of environmental DNA (eDNA) methods has drastically changed biodiversity monitoring efforts. It is often claimed that eDNA methods are more sensitive and efficient than conventional biodiversity monitoring methods, but it is often unclear what metrics support this claim.

Shifting baselines increase the risk of misinterpreting biodiversity trends

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Ecological studies quantifying the impact of land‐use change on biodiversity may be sensitive to the choice of reference points – or baselines – particularly when sampling across human land‐use gradients and other space‐for‐time comparisons. Much depends on whether the chosen baseline has already undergone shifts in species composition because of ...

Sleep enhances gamma oscillations in the seizure onset zone and broadband activity in the irritative zone of focal cortical dysplasia

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) is a leading cause of drug‐resistant epilepsy and is associated with sleep‐related seizures, yet the underlying electrophysiological mechanisms during different brain states remain poorly understood. We investigated whether fast oscillations (FOs) within the seizure onset zone (SOZ) and irritative zone (

Nonlinear Response‐History Analyses of Masonry and Mixed Structures With HybriDFEM

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The hybrid discrete‐finite element (HybriDFEM) method, previously developed to perform static and modal analysis in discrete and coupled discrete‐finite element models, is extended to nonlinear response‐history analyses. The equations of motion for the HybriDFEM model are solved through various numerical time‐integration schemes, both explicit
