Flooding and a complex predator community drive American oystercatcher nest and chick survival in Virginia

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 2, February 2026.
We investigated low American oystercatcher (Haematopus palliatus) productivity in the Virginia barrier islands, which historically supported high oystercatcher reproductive success. We found that chick survival was lower than nest survival, and that management may need to adapt to address evolving threats from coastal flooding and a multi‐guild ...

A Tutorial on Optimal Dynamic Treatment Regimes

open access: yesStatistics in Medicine, Volume 45, Issue 3-5, February 2026.
ABSTRACT A dynamic treatment regime (DTR) is a sequence of treatment decision rules tailored to an individual's evolving status over time. In precision medicine, much focus has been placed on finding an optimal DTR which, if followed by everyone in the population, would yield the best outcome on average; and extensive investigations have been conducted

Dispersed Nickel on Gallium Liquid Metal for Nitrate Reduction to Ammonia

open access: yesSmall Structures, Volume 7, Issue 2, February 2026.
Developing sustainable catalytic systems for green ammonia synthesis is essential to achieving net‐zero emission targets. This study introduces a liquid Ni–Ga alloy catalyst with dispersed Ni sites for efficient nitrate‐to‐ammonia conversion with exceptional Faradaic efficiency and considerable production rate.

Simulated soundscapes and transfer learning boost the performance of acoustic classifiers under data scarcity

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 2, Page 322-338, February 2026.
Abstract The biodiversity crisis necessitates spatially extensive methods to monitor multiple taxonomic groups for evidence of change in response to evolving environmental conditions. Programs that combine passive acoustic monitoring and machine learning are increasingly used to meet this need. These methods require large, annotated datasets, which are

Integrating AI models into ecological research workflows: The case of terrestrial bioacoustics

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 2, Page 257-271, February 2026.
Abstract Data collected by autonomous sensors, including camera traps and acoustic recorders, have enormous potential to generate new scientific insights in ecology and related fields. Modern machine learning and AI classification methods are critical to analysing these often immense data streams.

Inferring bird migration from bone isotopes and histology: A fossil‐friendly methodological framework

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 2, Page 531-553, February 2026.
Abstract Bird seasonal migration is a remarkable biogeographic phenomenon, yet its deep‐time origin(s) and evolutionary history remain poorly understood, with the bird fossil record largely overlooked. This study explores the predictability of bird migratory behaviour from the oxygen isotope composition of their bone apatite phosphate (δ18Op), a ...

‘Better sleep, better wellbeing’: Qualitative process evaluation of a hybrid, digital cognitive behavioural therapy programme for employees with sleep and emotion regulation problems

open access: yesBritish Journal of Health Psychology, Volume 31, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Introduction Sleep and mental health problems are common across the working adult population. This process evaluation provides insight into the experiences of employees who took part in a digital intervention trial: Supporting Employees with Insomnia and Emotional Regulation Problems (SLEEP).

Simultaneous encoding of sensory features: the role of multiplexing and noise in tactile perception and neural representation

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 539-553, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The nervous system's capacity to process complex stimuli has long intrigued neuroscientists, with multiplexing now recognized as a fundamental neural coding strategy. Multiplexing refers to the simultaneous encoding of multiple stimulus features via vi distinct components of neuronal responses, such as firing rates and precise temporal spike ...
