Vulnerable newborn types: analysis of subnational, population‐based birth cohorts for 541 285 live births in 23 countries, 2000–2021

open access: yesBJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics &Gynaecology, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Objective To examine prevalence of novel newborn types among 541 285 live births in 23 countries from 2000 to 2021. Design Descriptive multi‐country secondary data analysis. Setting Subnational, population‐based birth cohort studies (n = 45) in 23 low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs) spanning 2000–2021.

Avian diversity changes in traditional agricultural landscapes of Japan over ten years

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Agricultural intensification is a leading cause of biodiversity loss worldwide. However, the traditional agroecosystems are often associated with high avian diversity because of their landscape heterogeneity, offering available niches to different bird species.

Relatedness, trait evolution, and climatic niche divergence in mammalian island endemics

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Island mammals have influenced ecological and evolutionary theory since Darwin, and many of them provide textbook examples of the dramatic morphological evolution that often occurs in island communities. However, patterns of evolution in the climatic niches of island mammals have yet to be fully explored.

Patterns and drivers of range filling of alien mammals in Europe

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Biological invasions are major drivers of biodiversity change. Alien mammals are particularly concerning in Europe, where their expansion remains unabated, though the driving factors are still unclear. Well‐documented introductions and distributions in this continent provide a unique opportunity to understand how human activities influenced this ...

Paving the Way for Improved Representation of Coupled Physical and Biogeochemical Processes in Arctic River Plumes—A Case Study of the Mackenzie Shelf

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Processes affecting the transformation of riverine dissolved organic carbon (DOC) across the land‐to‐ocean aquatic continuum are still poorly constrained in Arctic models, leading to large uncertainties in simulated air–sea CO2 fluxes of the coastal periphery.

The importance of integrating herbarium records into conservation plans: a case study on Honduran ferns and lycophytes

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Herbarium collections are powerful, yet underutilized, tools for global biodiversity conservation and protected area management. By integrating digitized herbarium records with existing biodiversity data, previously unknown plant species were uncovered, exposing critical gaps in conservation knowledge.

Synergistic efforts in specimen digitisation, curation and cataloguing of Brazil's megadiverse flora and funga

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The advancement of digital technologies has brought a rapid global information exchange, impacting all areas of our lives. This also applies to science. Knowledge, conservation and scientific innovation on global biodiversity are being strengthened and disseminated at unprecedented scales.

Capacity building needed to reap the benefits of access to biodiversity collections

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Global conservation efforts increasingly depend on digitised natural history collections, yet the benefits of this digital data are not equally shared. We analysed biodiversity specimens and citation data from Montserrat and the Cayman Islands to assess who collected these specimens, how they are used, and by whom.

Genetic diversity and population structure of pedunculate oaks (Quercus robur) in Wytham Woods

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Genetic diversity underpins forest resilience and adaptation, yet centuries of human activity have reshaped woodland ecosystems worldwide. We studied the population genetics of pedunculate oaks (Quercus robur) in Wytham Woods, UK, across stands with different ages and management histories.

Links between hail hazard and climate modes of variability across Australia

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Climate modes of variability influence hail‐prone atmospheric conditions, but links between these drivers and hail hazard across Australia have not been well constrained. We examine relationships between the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO), Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD), and Southern Annular Mode (SAM) and proxy‐derived hail‐prone days across the ...
