Lagrangian turbulence in the Adriatic Sea as computed from drifter data: effects of inhomogeneity and nonstationarity

open access: yes, 2003
The properties of mesoscale Lagrangian turbulence in the Adriatic Sea are studied from a drifter data set spanning 1990-1999, focusing on the role of inhomogeneity and nonstationarity.

Estimating Causal Effects With Observational Data: Guidelines for Agricultural and Applied Economists

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Most research questions in agricultural and applied economics are causal in nature: they study how changes in one or more variables (such as policies, prices or weather) affect one or more other variables (e.g., income, crop yields or pollution).

DsiRNA‐mediated silencing of Ceratitis capitata transformer or transformer‐2 leads to masculinization of XX embryos and systemic gene silencing in ovaries

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
We carried out functional studies using Dicer‐substrate small interfering RNAs (DsiRNAs), targeting the sex determination genes Cctransformer (Cctra) and Cctransformer‐2 (Cctra‐2) in the Mediterranean fruit fly (Ceratitis capitata). Microinjection of DsiRNAs into XX embryos (0‐1 h old) rapidly triggered the expression of male‐specific Cctra isoforms ...

Domination Versus Sisterhoods in the Blood Microbiota of Migrating Birds: Patterns of Within‐ and Between‐Individual Blood Parasite Diversity Revealed Through Metabarcoding

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Avian haemosporidian blood parasites are typically identified through Sanger sequencing of a partial cytochrome b fragment, the MalAvi barcoding region. Next‐generation sequencing is seldom used for avian blood parasite identification; this study demonstrates a higher detection rate of co‐infections via metabarcoding and its possible implications ...

The Wind of Change: Mapping Wind Energy Growth and Multi‐Species Vulnerability in Sardinia, Mediterranean

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
The rapid expansion of wind energy across the Mediterranean region calls for more advanced tools to assess and mitigate its impacts on biodiversity. In this study, we present an innovative approach combining 13‐year satellite imagery analysis and ecological modelling, to assess the spatiotemporal overlap between wind energy development and habitat ...

The food spectrum of sparrowhawk (Accipiter nisus L.) and kestrel (Falco tinnunculus L.) in the Chřiby Upland

open access: yesActa Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 2009
In 2006–2008, mapping the sparrowhawk (Accipiter nisus L.) and kestrel (Falco tinnunculus L.) occurred in the SE part of the Chřiby Upland. At the same time, the food spectrum of these birds of prey was determined during nesting periods.
