COSST: A tool to facilitate seed provenancing for climate‐smart ecosystem restoration

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 3, Page 677-688, March 2025.
Our tool can guide where to source seeds for species lacking range‐wide information on genetic structure, which is the case for a substantial proportion of the tropical flora, where ecosystem restoration is of paramount importance. Abstract Selecting the best seed sources is a key step in ecological restoration planning especially under climate change.

Island restoration to rebuild seabird populations and amplify coral reef functioning

Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 1, February 2025.
Abstract Mobile organisms like seabirds can provide important nutrient flows between ecosystems, but this connectivity has been interrupted by the degradation of island ecosystems. Island restoration (via invasive species eradications and the restoration of native vegetation) can reestablish seabird populations and their nutrient transfers between ...

Fetal lower urinary tract obstruction: international Delphi consensus on management and core outcome set

Ultrasound in Obstetrics &Gynecology, Volume 64, Issue 5, Page 635-650, November 2024.
ABSTRACT Objectives To reach an international expert consensus on the diagnosis, prognosis and management of fetal lower urinary tract obstruction (LUTO) by means of a Delphi procedure, and to use this to define a core outcome set (COS). Methods A three‐round Delphi procedure was conducted among an international panel of experts in fetal LUTO.

Climatological Tracking and Lifecycle Characteristics of Mesoscale Convective Systems in Northwestern South America

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 129, Issue 19, 16 October 2024.
Abstract Mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) are crucial in shaping large‐scale tropical circulation and the hydrological cycle, particularly in Northwestern South America (NwSA), a region marked by complex terrain and significant MCS activity. Understanding MCSs in NwSA is vital due to their impact on precipitation patterns and potential for severe ...

Selection of the level of vibration signal decomposition and mother wavelets to determine the level of failure severity in spur gearboxes

Quality and Reliability Engineering International, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 3439-3451, October 2024.
Abstract Spur gearboxes are an integral component in the operation of rotary machines. Hence, the early determination of the severity level of a failure is crucial. This manuscript delineates a methodology for selecting essential mother wavelets and filters from the wavelet transform (WT) to process the vibration signal within the time‐frequency domain,

Effects of increasing soil moisture on Antarctic desert microbial ecosystems

Conservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 4, August 2024.
Abstract Overgeneralization and a lack of baseline data for microorganisms in high‐latitude environments have restricted the understanding of the microbial response to climate change, which is needed to establish Antarctic conservation frameworks. To bridge this gap, we examined over 17,000 sequence variants of bacteria and microeukarya across the ...

Global mismatches between threat mapping research effort and the potential of threat abatement actions to reduce extinction risk

Conservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 4, August 2024.
Abstract Threat mapping is a necessary tool for identifying and abating direct threats to species in the ongoing extinction crisis. There are known gaps in the threat mapping literature for particular threats and geographic locations, and it remains unclear if the distribution of research effort is appropriately targeted relative to conservation need ...

Relationship between two pathogens in an amphibian community that experienced mass mortalities

Conservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 3, June 2024.
Abstract Because host species tend to harbor multiple parasitic species, coinfection in a host is common. The chytrid fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) and the viruses in the genus Ranavirus (Rv) are responsible for the decline of amphibians worldwide.
