Link prediction in ecological meta‐networks under extreme taxonomic bias

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Ecological networks offer powerful insights into community function but, without first characterizing these networks accurately, our ability to detect and interpret changes under environmental stress is limited. We develop an extension of the Covariate‐Informed Link Prediction (COIL) framework to reduce bias in ecological link prediction when ...

Comprehension of functional support by enculturated chimpanzees Pan troglodytes

Current Zoology, 2011
Studies of causal understanding of tool relationships in captive chimpanzees have yielded disparate findings, particularly those reported by Povinelli & colleagues (2000) for tool tasks by laboratory chimpanzees.

Trace Element Patterns in Juvenile Wild Chimpanzee Dentitions

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Trace elements are used to infer mammalian early‐life diets, environmental toxins, dispersal patterns, stress histories, and weaning ages. Here, we employ laser ablation‐inductively coupled plasma‐mass spectrometry (LA‐ICP‐MS) to reveal elemental patterns in our closest living relatives, chimpanzees.

Monitoring wildlife health for diseases with visible signs by integrating camera traps with marked individuals

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Monitoring wildlife health is essential for conservation and management, wildlife and livestock welfare, and public health in a One Health framework. Yet, wildlife health monitoring often requires long‐term fieldwork and intensive sampling, which can be costly or logistically challenging, especially for remote, rare, or elusive populations. To

S1 guideline sweat gland carcinoma

JDDG: Journal der Deutschen Dermatologischen Gesellschaft, EarlyView.
Summary The current classification of sweat gland carcinomas is based on histomorphological characteristics and distinguishes between more than 20 entities. Most patients are older, but some subtypes also affect middle‐aged and younger patients. The majority of tumors arise de novo. Sweat gland carcinomas have nonspecific clinical features.

Influence of elevation, climate, snowmelt and floral abundance on body size of solitary bees

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
We measured body size in bee species from a 10‐year specimen collection from Colorado sub‐alpine meadows (2450–3450 m) and tested effects of elevation and annual snowmelt, climate and floral abundance. 2 out of 4 bee species collected across a broad elevation range showed a decline in body size with higher elevations; the other two showed no effect ...

“I teach her at home”: Home learning environments amid resource constraints

Family Relations, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study examined how mothers with low incomes think about and enact investments of time and money for their infants and toddlers. Background Infancy and toddlerhood are pivotal years for development. Home learning environments in these earliest years can also set the stage for later home learning environments.

Seasonality and plasticity in the use of native and introduced plant resources by a large forest parrot

Ibis, EarlyView.
Human‐induced environmental change is reshaping plant communities, requiring native animals to adapt their foraging behaviour to track and exploit novel food resources. Trees such as pines (Pinus spp.) introduced for plantation forestry outside of their native ranges often become naturalized.

FORMATION OF A PRIMARY DENTITION IN INFANT CHIMPANZEES (PAN TROGLODYTES)

Ветеринарная патология, 2019
IThe collection of allometric data, in particular, the study of the timing of the development of the dental system in chimpanzees, gives an idea of the rate and nature of the growth of wild animals and is of great importance for understanding postnatal ...

Local habitat, not landscape diversity, drives richness and reproduction of cavity‐nesting bees and wasps in agricultural landscapes

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Local habitat type and hedgerow cover strongly shape bee and wasp richness, but only weakly their reproductive output, outweighing the landscape diversity effects at the 1‐km2 scale. Forests host more wasp but fewer bee species, whereas orchards support high richness of both; bee reproduction patterns are driven by one dominant species, while wasp ...
