California's vernal‐pool mousetails (Myosurus, Ranunculaceae): Phylogenetic analysis of ddRADseq data, hybridization tests, and species delimitation

open access: yesJournal of Systematics and Evolution, EarlyView.
We present the first phylogenetic analysis of the Californian species of Myosurus. Our ddRADseq analysis reveals considerably more diversity than what was recognized in recent floristic treatments. Myosurus minimus subsp. apus was found to be a rare species restricted to Southern California and northwestern Baja California.

Subsistence hunting shapes the spatial variation of jaguar densities in community‐managed forests

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, EarlyView.
Jaguars and people can coexist in community‐managed forests, but distance matters. In Guatemala's Maya Biosphere Reserve, jaguar numbers increased markedly in areas harder to reach on foot, yet jaguars were still found near communities, showing that responsibly managed forests can support jaguar populations while allowing people to maintain traditional

Effects of 12-Week Multicomponent Training Program on Body Composition, Metabolic Health, and Physical Performance in Middle-Aged and Older Women: Exploratory Role of Baseline Adiposity

open access: yesSports
Combined functional training (FT), high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and aquatic exercise may improve health-related fitness in aging populations; however, the influence of baseline adiposity on training responses remains unclear.

“They Look At Us Like Parasites”: The Corporeal Stigmatization and Pathologization of Deportees in Tijuana, Mexico

open access: yesMedical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines the embodied and institutional forms of marginalization experienced by Mexican deportees in Tijuana. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork conducted in clinics and social service organizations, it explores how deportees are corporeally stigmatized, denied legal recognition, and pathologized as addicts in need of coercive ...

“They need to get a new program”: Experiential frictions with the gender of care in the 12 step program for ethnically Mexican women

open access: yesMedical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Using gender as an analytic, I parse out how the historical gendered, classed, and racialized roots of the 12 Step Program remain present in its therapeutic model, even in global contexts beyond its original formulation. These foundations continue to shape therapeutic logics and experience within the Program, in positive and negative ways.

How do small-scale fishers adapt to environmental variability? Lessons from Baja California, Sur, Mexico

open access: yesMaritime Studies, 2014
Many fisheries stocks and the livelihoods of those who make their living from fishing are in decline, and these declines are exacerbated by uncertainties associated with increased climate variability and change. Social scientists have long documented the

Compliance in Regulatory Gray Areas: The Case of the Organic Seed Standard

open access: yesPolicy Studies Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Adaptive regulations, designed to balance flexibility with accountability, can embed provisions that unintentionally leave room for firms to shirk on their responsibilities by exploiting flexibility. We call these provisions “regulatory gray areas,” and ask: how should we understand (non‐)compliance in adaptive regulatory settings?

Mesoscale variability of the Mexican Tropical Pacific using TOPEX and SeaWiFS data

open access: yesCiencias Marinas, 2006
The Mexican Tropical Pacific has oligotrophic characteristics; however, it sustains an abundant biodiversity, mainly because of upwelling promoted by its relatively shallow thermocline, strong winds and mesoscale eddies.

Marine reserves help preserve genetic diversity after impacts derived from climate variability: Lessons from the pink abalone in Baja California

open access: yes, 2015
Genetic diversity is crucial for the adaptation of exploited species like the pink abalone (Haliotis corrugata), faced with threats from climate change, overfishing and impacts associated with aquaculture production.
