Trait coevolution and causal inference using generalized dynamic phylogenetic models

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Phylogenetic comparative methods are widely used to study trait coevolution across biological and cultural domains. The most common methods are phylogenetic generalized linear (mixed) models, phylogenetic path analysis, Pagel's ‘discrete’ method and Ornstein–Uhlenbeck models. While some frameworks like generalized linear mixed models are quite

Functional homogenization of terrestrial mammals outside protected areas in the Hengduan Mountains, China

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite the crucial role of human impacts on biodiversity loss, many assessments of this loss focus on single metrics, such as species richness, and overlook the multidimensional effects of human activities. Because of its importance to ecosystem functioning, we investigated the functional diversity of medium‐ and large‐sized mammal ...

Geographic risks to functional groups of mammals and birds from habitat loss in Mexico

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract There is a need to quantify the impact of habitat loss due to anthropogenic factors on different aspects of biodiversity, such as functional trait diversity represented by functional groups (FGs). We developed a metric to assess the weighted risk of loss of habitat for 33 FGs of mammals and 36 FGs of birds in Mexico based on potential ...

Line width distributions as evidence for axisymmetry in the broad line regions of active galaxies [PDF]

, 1998
The nuclei of a wide class of active galaxies emit broad emission lines with widths at half maximum (FWHM) in the range $10^{3}-10^{4}$ km s$^{-1}$. This spread of widths is not solely a consequence of the range of the luminosities of these sources since

Effects of restoration practices on biodiversity in temperate and boreal forests

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Several restoration practices are used to mitigate and compensate for the negative effects of large‐scale forestry on biodiversity in temperate and boreal forests. A comprehensive synthesis of the benefits of these practices across taxa is missing. We conducted a systematic review and meta‐analysis on this topic.

Pour une Écologie des Somatiques?

Revista Brasileira de Estudos da Presença, 2014
Ce texte traite de la parenté conceptuelle et théorique entre Somatiques et Écologie scientifique. Après une définition de la notion scientifique d’écologie, il s’attache à définir trois notions clés de l’écologie: celle de potentiel, qui permet de ...

Phase IIB, Randomized, Double‐Blind, Placebo‐Controlled Clinical Trial of Intravenous Defibrotide for the Prevention and Treatment of Respiratory Distress and Cytokine Release Syndrome in COVID‐19

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Endothelial dysfunction is key in COVID‐19 pathogenesis. This randomized, double‐blind phase IIb trial investigated continuous intravenous infusion of defibrotide in patients hospitalized with SARS‐CoV‐2 infection and respiratory failure.
