Long‐term trends in weather severity indices for dabbling ducks in eastern North America

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2017
Annual distributions of waterfowl during the nonbreeding period can influence ecological, cultural, and economic relationships. We used previously developed Weather Severity Indices (WSI) that explained migration by dabbling ducks in eastern North ...

Large‐Area Noise‐Resilient Multiplexing Triboelectric Biomechanical Sensing on Clothing for High‐Precision Full‐Body Motion Capture in Wearables

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A large‐area, noise‐resilient multiplexed triboelectric sensing garment based on a multilayer shielded architecture and SnS2 nanoflower‐engineered hybrid materials enables interference‐suppressed, high‐fidelity full‐body motion tracking, achieving 0.13% signal misrecognition, 57 dB electromagnetic noise attenuation, and >1.5 N threshold force, while ...

Learning and adaptation in waterfowl conservation: By chance or by design?

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2016
The most recent revision of the North American Waterfowl Management Plan seeks to increase the adaptive capacity of the management enterprise to cope with accelerating changes in climate, land‐use patterns, agency priorities, and the waterfowl and ...

Process‐informed co‐optimization of liquid air energy storage and data centers under off‐design thermodynamic operation

open access: yesAIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract The rapid growth of AI data centers (AIDCs) is intensifying stress on power systems and exposing operators to volatile electricity markets. This work develops a process‐informed co‐optimization framework that integrates liquid air energy storage (LAES) with AIDC operation. Unlike black‐box storage models, the proposed formulation captures LAES

Assessing breeding duck population trends relative to anthropogenic disturbances across the boreal plains of Canada, 1960-2007

open access: yesAvian Conservation and Ecology, 2020
Impacts of anthropogenic disturbance on duck populations in the boreal forest is largely unknown but hypothesized to negatively influence abundance through top-down and bottom-up processes.

Prenatal Evaluation of RNU4‐2 Variants in Fetuses With Central Nervous System Anomalies

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fetal central nervous system (CNS) anomalies are among the most common congenital malformations, yet the overall prenatal diagnostic yield of current genetic testing remains below 40%. Variants in RNU4‐2, a non‐coding gene encoding the U4 small nuclear RNA (snRNA), have recently been linked to a novel highly recurrent dominant ...

“If It Looks Like a Duck, Walks Like a Duck, and Quacks Like a Duck… It Must Be a Duck” [PDF]

open access: yesStroke, 2013
Patients with ischemic stroke and atrial fibrillation (AF) are treated with long-term oral anticoagulation (OAC) because it is considerably more effective than antiplatelet (AP) therapy for the prevention of subsequent strokes and systemic emboli. Therefore, detecting AF changes therapy and makes secondary prevention more effective.

Understanding the spacing of placodes in the eye: A comparative study across age and species

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The conjunctival placodes of the avian eye form in an intriguing and conserved sequence in a circular annulus around the cornea. These 13–16 placodes develop into papillae that are essential for inducing underlying intramembranous flat bones, known as scleral ossicles, which form an important part of the ocular skeleton.
