Predicting potential Arctic kelp distribution and lower‐depth biomass from seafloor irradiance
Abstract Kelps have an extensive distribution in Arctic coastal waters. However, quantifying their role in the Arctic food web and carbon cycle is challenged by the scarcity of documented geographical distribution, standing stocks and production. Here we present a framework based on an empirical function to predict the potential kelp distribution and ...

Abstract Background The effect of deep brain stimulation (DBS) on gait in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) remains variable, and prospective, long‐term studies, especially involving globus pallidus interna (GPi) stimulation, are limited. Objectives We tested the hypothesis that subthalamic nucleus (STN) and GPi DBS exert acute and chronic effects
