Prevalence and impact of prescribing cascades in community‐dwelling adults: Longitudinal analysis of the Irish longitudinal study on ageing (TILDA)

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Prescribing cascades occur when medication is prescribed to prevent/treat the adverse effects of another medication and may be intentional/unintentional. This study examines the prevalence of nine prescribing cascades (ThinkCascades) in The Irish Longitudinal StuDy on Ageing (TILDA).

Ocean Acidification Effects on Atlantic Cod Larval Survival and Recruitment to the Fished Population

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
How fisheries will be impacted by climate change is far from understood. While some fish populations may be able to escape global warming via range shifts, they cannot escape ocean acidification (OA), an inevitable consequence of the dissolution of ...

To protect and preserve? Explaining the gap between structural and superficial racial equality regimes in North Atlantic Rim universities

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines how UK and US universities manage racial equality regimes through governance structures that prioritise institutional reputation over substantive racial justice reform. Drawing on Bourdieu's field, habitus and capital theory, the study demonstrates how universities neutralise racial justice efforts through bureaucratic ...

“Islands of Divergence” in the Atlantic Cod Genome Represent Polymorphic Chromosomal Rearrangements

open access: yesGenome Biology and Evolution, 2016
In several species genetic differentiation across environmental gradients or between geographically separate populations has been reported to center at “genomic islands of divergence,” resulting in heterogeneous differentiation patterns across genomes ...

The Last Northern Cod

open access: yesJournal of Political Ecology, 1997
: Social scientists in Atlantic Canada developed an incisive political economy of the region’s fisheries in the 1970s and 1980s and forged a sharp critique of Canadian fisheries policies.

Low plastic ingestion rate in Atlantic Cod (Gadus morhua) from Newfoundland destined for human consumption collected through citizen science methods

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2016
Marine microplastics are a contaminant of concern because their small size allows ingestion by a wide range of marine life. Using citizen science during the Newfoundland recreational cod fishery, we sampled 205 Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) destined for ...

A review of the historic and present ecological role of aquatic and shoreline wood, from forest to deep sea

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

Evolutionary redesign of the Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua L.) Toll-like receptor repertoire by gene losses and expansions

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2016
Genome sequencing of the teleost Atlantic cod demonstrated loss of the Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) class II, an extreme gene expansion of MHC class I and gene expansions and losses in the innate pattern recognition receptor (PRR) family of ...

Long‐term trends in parasite diversity and infection levels: approaches and patterns

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Parasites exist in every ecosystem, affecting nearly all organisms and playing a complex role in human societies. On the one hand, they contribute substantially to biodiversity and support ecosystem stability by performing essential ecological functions.

The impacts of biological invasions

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological
