Is it assisted migration, conservation translocation, managed relocation, or another term? Best practices for clear communication when using translocation terminology

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Translocations referred to as assisted migration, conservation translocation, managed relocation, and similar terms—which involve the intentional movement of organisms or propagative material from one area to another—can be useful for managing species and ecosystems under stress from climate change, invasive species, disease, or habitat loss. Different

Evaluating and Advancing the Use of Shore‐Based Observers for Scientific Sampling and Catch Verification in High‐Volume Fisheries

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Shore‐based observers are increasingly being used in place of at‐sea observers to monitor and sample commercial fisheries catch. However, few evaluations assess whether these programs meet their stated goals or how to optimize them, and industry data are rarely tested for accuracy despite serving as the foundation for catch accounting. Using a

High Cost and Low Trust: Insights From Qualitative Commercial Fishing Cost Data in the Northeast United States

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In fisheries management, socioeconomic data, specifically qualitative data analysis, is often underutilized. This study qualitatively analyzed a primary federal data collection effort in the Northeast United States, The Greater Atlantic Region Commercial Fishing Business Cost Survey.

Stage‐Specific Indicators of Northern Yellowtail Rockfish (Sebastes flavidus) Recruitment in the California Current Ecosystem

Fisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oceanographic and ecological conditions can be used to inform forecasts and decision‐making for marine resources, but the dominant drivers of recruitment variability remain poorly understood for many fish stocks. We developed a conceptual life‐history model of the oceanographic and ecological variables that influence the recruitment of ...

Non-negative matrix factorization with sparseness constraints

, 2004
Non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) is a recently developed technique for finding parts-based, linear representations of non-negative data. Although it has successfully been applied in several applications, it does not always result in parts-based ...

Penetration enhancement effects of topically applied crosslinked hyaluronic acid

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Cross‐linked hyaluronic acid (HA) was demonstrated to enhance the topical delivery of a variety of hydrophilic actives into the skin. This phenomenon was observed for both small molecules and macromolecules, the latter of which was analysed with MALDI mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI‐MSI).

Simultaneous and Proportional Control Based on an Enhanced Musculoskeletal Model

IEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering
Recently, the musculoskeletal model (MM) has been widely studied for decoding movement intent from electromyography (EMG) signals. However, the decoding performance of the MM is impaired for the coordinated movements of multiple degrees of freedom (DoFs)

Use of Cluster Analysis for Identifying Metafounders

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the metafounder approach, the relationship matrix of metafounders, Γ$$ \boldsymbol{\Gamma} $$ is used to transfer information on relationships between pedigree founders into the numerator relationship matrix A$$ \mathbf{A} $$, creating matrix AΓ$$ {\mathbf{A}}^{\boldsymbol{\Gamma}} $$.

Biomarkers for therapeutic response and adverse outcomes in atopic dermatitis: A systematic review

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.
This review assessed 52 biomarkers predicting systemic therapy response and adverse events in atopic dermatitis. Most studies focused on dupilumab, and findings were inconsistent. IgE and eosinophils were largely non‐predictive, though elevated eosinophils and LDH sometimes indicated poorer outcomes.

Intra‐annual energy density cycles of spring‐ and fall‐spawning Atlantic herring Clupea harengus reveal different reproductive allocation tactics

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Atlantic herring Clupea harengus are total spawners that exhibit a large degree of reproductive plasticity and have substantial intra‐annual variation in their energetic condition. Recent research suggests that the species may be declining in energetic condition in the northwest Atlantic Ocean from the few historical records, but comparisons ...
