Worldwide Impact of Human Development and Inequality on the Prevalence of Asthma, Rhinoconjunctivitis and Eczema. Global Asthma Network's Ecological Study

open access: yesClinical &Experimental Allergy, EarlyView.
Global Asthma Network Phase I surveyed children, adolescents, and adults worldwide to assess the prevalence of asthma, rhinoconjunctivitis, and eczema. Human Development Index (HDI) and Gini inequality index (GinI) were important explanatory factors for prevalence variability of these conditions, with hotspots in areas with high HDI and high GinI ...

Structured machine learning modeling to support conservation of deep‐sea benthic biodiversity

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiversity monitoring programs need to deliver accurate, timely, and actionable predictions. To establish a predictive monitoring program for deep‐sea benthos of the Santos Basin, Brazil, we developed a two‐stage structured model that allowed comparison of biodiversity predictions obtained from environmental simulations (2M‐Sim).

Nonparametric Slope Estimators for Fixed-Effect Panel Data [PDF]

open access: yes
In panel data the interest is often in slope estimation while taking account of the unobserved cross sectional heterogeneity. This paper proposes two nonparametric slope estimation where the unobserved effect is treated as fixed across cross section. The

Providing regular and frequent maps of losses and gains of farmland birds based on European monitoring data

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Knowledge of species distributions is essential for informing policies on nature conservation and restoration. However, updating them on a regular basis and doing so in a harmonized manner at the international level is difficult. The European Bird Census Council integrated national monitoring data covering 5 years to update farmland bird ...

Persistence without prosperity at the upper range margin: Elevation, microhabitat buffering and biotic pressure in a range‐expanding spider

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
Anthropogenic linear features facilitate high‐elevation colonization. Parasitoid pressure declines markedly with elevation. Cocoon damage increases despite reduced parasitism at high elevation. Abstract The upper elevational range limits of thermophilic arthropods reflect constraints on population persistence rather than simple presence.
