Evaluating the Response of Mediterranean-Atlantic Saltmarshes to Sea-Level Rise [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Saltmarshes provide high-value ecological services and play an important role in coastal ecosystems and populations. As the rate of sea level rise accelerates in response to climate change, saltmarshes and tidal environments and the ecosystem services ...

Microbial Odorant Detection Guides Drosophila Parasitoids Seeking Hosts in Fermenting Fruits

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Yeast microbes in fermenting fruits attract both host flies and their parasitoid wasps. Female Leptopilina boulardi detect yeast‐emitted ethyl esters via two olfactory receptors, LbouOR167 and LbouOR136. A conserved residue, Leu159, is critical for binding these compounds, enabling female wasps to locate host‐rich habitats.

Development of ecologically meaningful, multiple-species conservation strategies under the California and U.S. Endangered Species Acts

open access: yesCalifornia Fish and Wildlife Journal, 2021
The California and U.S. Endangered Species Acts prohibit take of protected species, but allow for authorization of take incidental to otherwise lawful activities provided the take is minimized and mitigated.

Expected Effects of Correlated Habitat Variables on Habitat Quality and Bird Distribution [PDF]

open access: yesThe Condor, 2007
Abstract Abstract. Habitats are composed of multiple variables, each of which may affect one or more population demographic rates. The patterns of correlation among habitat variables can introduce correlations among demographic rates, even if any single habitat variable affects only a single demographic rate and is independent of others.

Sensing and Filtering Environmental Fluctuations: The Case of Biomolecular Condensates in Plants

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The diversity of plant condensates reflects constraints of sessile organisms to coordinate postembryonic development with environmental adaptation. This review examines how plants employ condensates to integrate temperature, light, redox, and nutrient signals.

Relationships between habitat area, habitat quality, and populations of nesting Marbled Murrelets

open access: yesJournal of Ecosystems and Management, 2009
We review relationships between the area and quality of apparently suitable nesting habitat (as defined by canopy structure) and the population size of Marbled Murrelets (Brachyramphus marmoratus) which such habitat might support. This information is important to manage the old seral forest nesting habitat of this threatened seabird.

Operando X‐Ray Diffraction and Total Scattering Characterization of Battery Materials: Not Just a Pretty Picture

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
This review focuses on operando studies of battery materials by X‐ray diffraction (XRD) and total X‐ray scattering (TXS). This work highlights potential pitfalls and identify best‐practices for operando studies and reviews some unusual experiments to illustrate how these methods can be applied beyond the evaluation of the early‐stage cycling mechanisms

Inferring habitat quality and habitat selection using static site occupancy models

open access: yes, 2016
When evaluating the ecological value of land use within a landscape, investigators typically rely on measures of habitat selection and habitat quality. Traditional measures of habitat selection and habitat quality require data from resource intensive study designs (e.g., telemetry or mark-recapture).

Effects of Environmental and Health Information on Willingness to Pay for Local and Organic Foods in Taiwan

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Using a lab‐in‐the‐field experiment, we investigate how providing information about food miles and pesticide residue influences willingness to pay (WTP) for potatoes among 407 shoppers in Taiwan, split between a supermarket and a farmers market.
