Latent Trajectories of Body Mass Index and Depressive Symptoms in Inpatients With Anorexia Nervosa: Predictors and Outcomes

open access: yesInternational Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Inpatient treatment aimed at weight restoration and psychiatric stabilization is often required for individuals with anorexia nervosa (AN). This study aimed to identify distinct trajectories of change in body mass index (BMI) and depressive symptoms during inpatient treatment, examine clinical predictors and outcomes, and test ...

Trends in marine species distribution models: a review of methodological advances and future challenges

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Correlative species distribution models (SDMs) are quantitative tools in biogeography and macroecology. Building upon the ecological niche concept, they correlate environmental covariates to species presence to model habitat suitability and predict species distributions.

Testing the marshall-lerner condition in Kenya

open access: yes, 2015
Navarra Center for International Development WP-09/2012 In this paper we examine the Marshall-Lerner (ML) condition for the Kenyan economy. In particular, we use quarterly data on the log of real exchange rates, export-import ratio and relative (US) income for the time period 1996q1 – 2011q4, and employ techniques based on the concept of long memory ...

A systematic review evaluating the performance of eDNA methods relative to conventional methods for biodiversity monitoring

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
The rapid adoption of environmental DNA (eDNA) methods has drastically changed biodiversity monitoring efforts. It is often claimed that eDNA methods are more sensitive and efficient than conventional biodiversity monitoring methods, but it is often unclear what metrics support this claim.

A Test Program to Measure Fluid Mechanical Whirl-Excitation Forces in Centrifugal Pumps [PDF]

open access: yes, 1980
Much speculation has surrounded the possible unsteady hydrodynamic forces which could be responsible for the excitation of whirl instabilities in turbomachines. However there exist very few measurements of these forces which would permit one to evaluate

Precipitation and tree biomass correlate with the diversity and functional composition of tropical rainforest cricket assemblages across climate and disturbance gradients

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Disturbance‐driven changes in rainforest structure and environmental conditions can alter ecosystem functioning, yet the consequences for invertebrate communities – key contributors to decomposition, herbivory, and trophic interactions – are not fully understood, particularly in relation to structural changes in vegetation.
