Managing the Threat of Subsidized Predators for a Threatened Shorebird

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Subsidized predators—native predators that have become more common due to human activities—challenge the persistence of many at‐risk prey species and require creative solutions beyond lethal predator control. In an 8‐year study, we placed small wire cages over western snowy plover nests that allow passage of plovers, but not their predators, and ...

A climate change signal in the tropical Pacific emerges from decadal variability

open access: yesNature Communications
The eastern tropical Pacific has defied the global warming trend. There has been a debate about whether this observed trend is forced or natural (i.e., the Interdecadal Pacific Oscillation; IPO) and this study shows that there are two patterns, one that ...

Lexical inference training for homonyms: Two randomized controlled trials for children with English as a first and an additional language

open access: yesBritish Journal of Educational Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Many words have multiple meanings, which present challenges to learning, yet research has yet to identify effective interventions for homonyms. Lexical inference may be a promising strategy. Aim To evaluate a brief, novel lexical inference intervention for homonyms. Samples Children aged 7–8 years (Study 1: N = 180, Study 2: N = 76).

Platinum Group Element Traces of CAMP Volcanism Associated With Low‐Latitude Environmental and Biological Disruptions

open access: yesGeophysical Monograph Series, Page 263-304., 2021

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact

An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Common Pressures, Uneven Trajectories: The Variegated Europeanisation of Wage Regulation Institutions

open access: yesBritish Journal of Industrial Relations, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The debate on whether national industrial relations (IR) are experiencing convergence is a long‐standing one. Recently, scholars argue that we are witnessing a neoliberal convergence of national IR, understood as an increase in employers’ discretion.

The Impact of Sub‐Grid Heterogeneity on Air‐Sea Turbulent Heat Flux in Coupled Climate Models

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Understanding air‐sea interaction is crucial for our ability to predict future states of the climate system, and for decision‐making. However, the representation of air‐sea interactions in climate models is limited by structural errors. Coarse‐resolution

A general description of Loran-C: Present and potential applications [PDF]

open access: yes
Loran-C is a low frequency (100 kHz) pulse navigation system. The pulse format and phase stability of the system are of paramount importance for both navigation and time synchronization using this system.

Psychedelics as pharmacotherapeutics for substance use disorders: A scoping review on clinical trials and perspectives on underlying neurobiology

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Theorized mechanism of dopamine homeostasis restoration in the nucleus accumbens core induced by a psychedelic intervention. Abstract Psychedelics have garnered great attention in recent years as treatments for major depressive disorder (MDD) and treatment‐resistant depression because of their ability to alter consciousness and afflicted cognitive ...

Covalent fluorescent probes for 2‐arachidonoylglycerol metabolic pathways

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Covalent fluorescent probes have emerged as versatile chemical tools to visualise active enzymes in complex biological systems. When tailored for specific applications, ranging from activity‐based protein profiling for drug development to high spatiotemporal resolution imaging of enzymatic activities, these probes provide unique insights into ...

The response of tropical cyclone hazard to natural and forced patterns of warming

open access: yesnpj Climate and Atmospheric Science
This study quantifies the influence of the pattern of sea surface temperature change in the tropical Pacific on tropical cyclone hazard. After downscaling a climate model with an “El Niño-like” forced response, it is found that the “El Niño-like” pattern
