Quantifying functionally equivalent species and ecological network dissimilarity with optimal transport distances

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Quantifying the structure and dynamics of species interactions in ecological communities is fundamental to studying ecology and evolution. While there are numerous approaches to analysing ecological networks, there is not yet an approach that can (1) quantify dissimilarity in the global structure of ecological networks that range from ...

Predicting animal movement with deepSSF: A deep learning step selection framework

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Predictions of animal movement are vital for understanding and managing wild populations. However, the fine‐scale, complex decision‐making of animals can pose challenges for the accurate prediction of trajectories. Integrated step selection functions (iSSFs), a common tool for inferring relationships between animal movement and the environment,

Continuing use of e‐cigarettes after stopping smoking and relapse: Secondary analysis of a large randomised controlled trial

Addiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and aims Smokers quitting successfully with the help of e‐cigarettes often continue vaping. It is not known whether this promotes or prevents relapse back to smoking. This study aimed to determine whether use of e‐cigarettes after successful smoking cessation affects the probability of relapse later on.

Lactate inhibits glucose‐induced zigzag motility and enhances linear motility in bull spermatozoa by suppressing glycolysis

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Energy metabolism and substrate balance are critical determinants of sperm motility and fertility. Linear motility is necessary for sperm forward movement, whereas hyperactivated motility is a prerequisite for fertilization. The preference of metabolic pathways depends on substrate availability which controls sperm motility. However,
