Standardized NEON organismal data for biodiversity research

open access: yesEcosphere, 2022
Understanding patterns and drivers of species distribution and abundance, and thus biodiversity, is a core goal of ecology. Despite advances in recent decades, research into these patterns and processes is currently limited by a lack of standardized ...

Species and ecological communities as management surrogates for threatened biodiversity

open access: yesBiodiversity and Conservation
AbstractIn the face of the ongoing biodiversity crisis and limited conservation funding, surrogate approaches have become a valuable tool to represent biodiversity. Management surrogates are those that indirectly benefit an ecological system or species by representing the management requirements of co-occurring biodiversity.

Dual‐Functional Ingestible Passive Capsules for High‐Throughput Intestinal Sampling with Sealed Containment and Targeted Drug Delivery

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
To address challenges in high‐throughput intestinal sampling with sealed containment and target drug delivery, we developed a dual‐functional ingestible passive capsule with a dual‐triggered control system based on pH‐response and mechanical actuation.

Social–ecological memory and responses to biodiversity change in a Bribri Community of Costa Rica

open access: yesAmbio, 2019
Social-ecological memory (SEM) is an analytical construct used to consider the ways by which people can draw upon biological materials and social memory to reorganize following a disturbance. Since its introduction into the literature, there have been few cases that have considered its use.

Community size affects the signals of ecological drift and niche selection on biodiversity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Abstract Ecological drift can override the effects of deterministic niche selection on small populations and drive the assembly of small communities. We tested the hypothesis that smaller local communities are more dissimilar among each other because of ecological drift than larger communities, which are mainly structured by niche ...

Future Representation of Species’ Climatic Niches in Protected Areas: A Case Study With Austrian Endemics

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Climate driven species’ range shifts may interfere with existing protected area (PA) networks, resulting in a mismatch between places where species are currently protected and places where they can thrive in the future.
