Hydropower Regulation of Xingu River Discharge Structures Heterogeneous, Sector‐Specific Responses in Pacu Fisheries Along the River Continuum

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hydroelectric dams are common in Amazonian tributaries under federal environmental licensing that requires long‐term fisheries monitoring. This study evaluated three fishing systems targeting “pacu” species (Serrasalmidae) in the Xingu River before, during, and after construction of the Belo Monte dam (2012–2023) across four river sectors ...

Moth traps shine a light on nocturnal parasitoid wasps: Snapshot assessment of UK diversity and distributions

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Biological datasets are biased towards well‐known, charismatic taxa, meaning that our understanding of biodiversity is incomplete. Parasitoid wasps (Hymenoptera) are an ecologically important, yet often overlooked group of insects. We show that 5 months of sampling for parasitoid ‘bycatch’ at moth light traps operated by citizen scientists provides ...

Goodness‐of‐Fit Tests for Positive Quadrant Dependence

International Statistical Review, EarlyView.
Summary When two random variables are positive quadrant dependent (PQD), they are more likely to assume small (or large) values simultaneously compared with when the random variables are independent. This dependence structure is of interest in many areas, including finance, actuarial science and engineering.

Parenting course for caregivers of children with fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) versus waitlist: a randomised controlled large‐scale feasibility study of the SPECIFiC (Salford parents and carers' education course for improvements in FASD outcomes in children) programme

Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, EarlyView.
Background Children with fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) have difficulties with functioning in daily life, emotions and behaviour. Evidence for FASD‐specific parenting interventions is scarce, with few randomised trials of FASD‐specific parenting interventions published to date.

Nutritional Interventions During Pregnancy Improve Maternal and Neonatal Outcomes: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials

Journal of Midwifery &Women's Health, EarlyView.
Introduction This systematic review and meta‐analysis aimed to evaluate the effects of nutritional interventions during pregnancy on maternal and neonatal outcomes. Methods The review followed Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta‐Analyses guidelines and was registered in PROSPERO (CRD42024528918).

Product Introduction Events and Stock Returns: A Meta‐Analysis

Journal of Product Innovation Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Academic Summary Product introduction events are frequent across industries, countries, and other contexts and part of the innovation strategy of many companies. However, the future performance of new products is uncertain, posing significant risks for firms and investors and leading to heterogeneous stock market responses.

Typical Dream Themes in a Large Internet Sample: A Replication and Extension

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Typical content themes in dreams still defy clear explanation. While a series of studies administering typical dream theme questionnaires mainly to college students point to a surprising consistency in the prevalence of such themes over gender, age, culture, and time, it is still unclear how generalizable such findings are to the larger ...

On Testing for Independence Between Generalized Error Models of Several Time Series

Journal of Time Series Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We define generalized innovations associated with generalized error models having arbitrary distributions, that is, distributions that can be mixtures of continuous and discrete distributions. These models include stochastic volatility models and regime‐switching models with possibly zero‐inflated regimes.

Moving Aggregate Modified Autoregressive Copula‐Based Time Series Models (MAGMAR‐Copulas)

Journal of Time Series Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Copula‐based time series models can model univariate and stationary time series in a flexible way by decomposing the joint distribution of consecutive observations into a copula and the stationary distribution. Implicitly, this approach assumes a finite Markov order. In reality, a time series may not follow the Markov property.

Disentangling Thermal and Hydraulic Drivers of Stomatal Conductance Under Hot Versus Dry Vapour Pressure Deficit Increases Using Water‐Use Efficiency

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Predicting plant functioning in a warming world requires capturing its divergent responses to hot versus dry vapour pressure deficit (VPD) increases. Stomatal responses to VPD are typically studied without disentangling the effects of RH and temperature, creating uncertainties for future plant functioning.
