Abstract The rapid expansion of biodiversity data presents new opportunities to understand and forecast biosphere dynamics. However, disparate and dispersed data, taxonomic and geographic inconsistencies, pervasive quality issues, and a lack of reproducable workflows hinder synthesis, introduce biases and limit accurate assessment of biodiversity ...

Precisión de la programación de volumen tidal mediante fórmulas de estimación de estatura
Antecedentes: Para programar la ventilación mecánica debe conocerse el peso ideal del paciente, que se calcula a partir de su talla. Sin embargo, no puede colocarse en bipedestación para utilizar un estadímetro, por lo que deben usarse métodos de estimación de estatura.

When and why to give shorebirds a head start
Abstract Headstarting is a translocation technique involving the hatching or rearing of wild eggs or young in captivity and the release of those individuals back to the wild at or before independence. It has been trialed as a conservation intervention for shorebirds over recent decades to improve the population trend of target populations by increasing

An integrated approach to balance freshwater connectivity restoration and invasion risk
Abstract Habitat fragmentation negatively affects many native migratory fish populations. However, this fragmentation can also prevent the spread and establishment of invasive species. We modified the dendritic connectivity index (DCI), a commonly used freshwater connectivity metric, to account for multiple invasive dispersal pathways in estimates of ...

Abstract Achieving global conservation policy goals requires the ability to set and measure progress toward science‐based targets for biodiversity. The species threat abatement and restoration (STAR) metric was developed to enable actors to set science‐based targets for species.

Spatially Downscaling of Future Food Demand for Policy Planning
ABSTRACT Understanding the subnational dynamics of food demand, while accounting for the evolution of the agrifood system at the global level, remains a challenge for designing food policy to ensure food security. To link global agrifood systems with subnational food policy planning, we downscale per capita food demand for 62 food commodities at the ...

A response to ‘Quantifying phenotypic plasticity at multiple levels—A comment on Gómez et al.’
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract In this reply, we clarify several conceptual misunderstandings raised in response to our Perspective on quantifying phenotypic plasticity. We emphasize that our central argument concerns the rigorous estimation of the magnitude of plasticity, rather than its mere ...

This original research piece demonstrates, through empirical and theoretical modelling approaches, that the epibionts of striped dolphins indicate dolphin abundance shifts caused by epidemics of dolphin morbillivirus (DMV). In addition, we provide the first SIR model to investigate the epidemiology of DMV in western Mediterranean striped dolphins ...
