We will test for relationships between relative prey densities and relative consumption rates, specifically to identify a ‘tipping point’ at which predators switch prey. We will determine factors which influence this relationship, such as taxa, sociality, species biomass, ecosystem productivity and predator condition and identity.

Body Size and Risk of Death During the 1918 Influenza Pandemic in Alaska
ABSTRACT In the aftermath of the 2009 H1N1 influenza A pandemic, research revealed the relationship between body size and the severity of influenza outcomes. However, there is little data available on body size in historical populations; therefore, the relationship between body size and 1918 influenza pandemic outcomes is virtually unknown.

Estimands for Early‐Phase Dose Optimization Trials in Oncology
ABSTRACT Phase I dose escalation trials in oncology generally aim to find the maximum tolerated dose. However, with the advent of molecular‐targeted therapies and antibody drug conjugates, dose‐limiting toxicities are less frequently observed, giving rise to the concept of optimal biological dose (OBD), which considers both efficacy and toxicity.

An Uncomfortable Neighborhood: Presence Evolution of Two Competing Carnivores in North‐Eastern Italy
This study examined the spatial dynamics between gray wolves and golden jackals in north‐eastern Italy from 2013 to 2023, as both species expanded their ranges. Wolves favored rugged, forested Alpine areas, while jackals preferred fragmented, lowland habitats.

ABSTRACT The relationship between the treatment effect and the baseline risk is a recognized tool to investigate the heterogeneity of treatment effects in meta‐analyses of clinical trials. Since the baseline risk is difficult to measure, a proxy is adopted, which is based on the rate of events for the subject under the control condition. The use of the

Thermal expansion of LaB6 from 298 to 998 K
The isobaric thermal expansion coefficient of LaB6 at 1 atm was assessed from 298 to 998 K. We propose it as a temperature calibration standard for high‐temperature X‐ray diffraction work owing to its high temperature stability.We propose LaB6 as a temperature calibration standard for high‐temperature (HT) X‐ray diffractometry owing to its high ...

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Rising drought frequency and intensity are placing many tree species at increasing risk of mortality. Identifying which trees are most sensitive to drought is critical for biodiversity conservation and forest carbon storage; however, this is challenging in natural and ...

ABSTRACT Many regions of the world aim to increase their forest cover to sequester carbon, improve biodiversity, reduce soil erosion, or provide more recreational opportunities. To achieve this, several forest restoration programs have been implemented in developing countries.

Warm or bright – Temperature and light microhabitat use in insect pollinators
We investigated how bumblebee species foraging on a unique flower resource in a heterogeneous habitat might coexist thanks to differential use of light and temperature microhabitats. Our study suggests that temperature acts as a first filter of the local species pool and that, for a given temperature, the present species partition along a light ...

ABSTRACT Southern right whales ( Eubalaena australis ) have shown population recovery since protection from commercial whaling and are considered a flagship species for successful conservation management. However, recovery remains incomplete, with recent evidence suggesting slowed growth and variability in reproductive success.
