Tutorial: Saturation Transfer Difference NMR for Studying Small Molecules Interacting With Nanoparticles

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Chemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Saturation transfer difference (STD) NMR is a robust, versatile technique for detecting small molecules binding to large receptors. In addition to identifying binding molecules in the presence of nonbinding molecules, the STD‐NMR technique can be used to determine epitope maps and binding constants.

Landscape heterogeneity shapes the spatial and diet partitioning of a montane carnivore guild

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Interspecific competition is a structural force in animal communities and can be particularly influential among species with similar taxonomic or ecological characteristics. In carnivore communities, heterogeneity in resource availability and landscape structure can ameliorate competitive interactions, but it is often difficult to quantify the space ...

Recruitment probability in a large carnivore: the role of biological and human‐related factors in early‐life

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
To reach reproduction, individuals must survive the juvenile stage, a critical period of low survival rates in large carnivores. Early‐life conditions during this stage can have lasting effects on survival, reproductive maturation, growth, physiology and behaviour. We assessed recruitment probability in Scandinavian wolves, i.e.

Colours of urban selection: carotenoid‐based signals reveal divergent urban/rural evolutionary trajectories in two closely related passerines

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Urbanisation is a major driver of environmental change, reshaping ecological and evolutionary processes. Urban‐driven phenotypic differences are increasingly documented, but the underlying role of selection is still understudied. One pattern is the consistent reduction of carotenoid‐based plumage pigmentation in city birds.

High β‐diversity in fig wasp communities driven by species turnover in widely distributed Neotropical fig trees

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Wasp communities associated with fig trees, Ficus spp., are a model system to investigate how local and regional processes shape biodiversity across large geographical ranges. We investigated the β‐diversity of fig wasp assemblages associated with three widely distributed Neotropical fig species – F. citrifolia, F. obtusifolia and F. pertusa – using 27

More pumas (Puma concolor) does not change perceptions: The mismatched response of ranchers to the presence of a top carnivore

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Human‐wildlife conflicts (HWCs) are one of the most critical conservation challenges worldwide. Large carnivores are frequently at the centre of these conflicts because of the perceived and real threats they pose to livestock and human safety.
