Revealing migration and reproductive habitat of invasive fish under an active population suppression program

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, 2020
Endemic species face a variety of threats including predation from non‐native invaders. In some cases, however, invasive species can be managed by directly suppressing populations, and tracking technologies that allow researchers to identify movement ...

survHE: Survival Analysis for Health Economic Evaluation and Cost-Effectiveness Modeling

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Software, 2020
Survival analysis features heavily as an important part of health economic evaluation, an increasingly important component of medical research. In this setting, it is important to estimate the mean time to the survival endpoint using limited information (

Geographical Pattern of Testicular Cancer Points to Maternal Exposures Behind Increasing Incidence

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Evidence suggests that testicular cancer (TC) originates from germ cell neoplasia in situ arising during fetal development, implying that prenatal environmental exposures may influence disease risk. We investigated whether maternal place of residence during pregnancy is associated with regional variation in TC incidence.

easyGBDR: An Integrated R Toolkit for Comprehensive Secondary Analysis of Global Burden of Disease Database

open access: yesMed Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Global Burden of Disease (GBD) database provides essential primary data for public health research. However, its complexity and diversity pose challenges for conducting advanced secondary analyses. To address these challenges, we developed easyGBDR, an innovative integrated R toolkit designed to facilitate the secondary analysis of GBD ...

INLAjoint: Multivariate Joint Modeling for Longitudinal and Time-to-Event Outcomes with 'INLA'

open access: yes, 2023
Estimation of joint models for multivariate longitudinal markers (with various distributions available) and survival outcomes (possibly accounting for competing risks) with Integrated Nested Laplace Approximations (INLA).

Comparison of inference methods of genetic parameters with an application to body weight in broilers [PDF]

open access: yesArchives Animal Breeding, 2015
REML (restricted maximum likelihood) has become the standard method of variance component estimation in animal breeding. Inference in Bayesian animal models is typically based upon Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods, which are generally flexible but

Home range shifts and habitat selection across life‐history stages in grey partridges

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Understanding how birds use space throughout the year is essential for effective conservation planning, even in resident species. We investigated seasonal space use in a Central European population of grey partridges Perdix perdix, a rapidly declining residential farmland bird.

Spatio-Temporal Modeling for Forecasting High-Risk Freshwater Cyanobacterial Harmful Algal Blooms in Florida

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2020
Due to the occurrence of more frequent and widespread toxic cyanobacteria events, the ability to predict freshwater cyanobacteria harmful algal blooms (cyanoHAB) is of critical importance for the management of drinking and recreational waters.

Balancing Fire Regimes and Population Dynamics for the Conservation of a Microendemic Lizard From a Biodiversity Hotspot

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Disturbance from fire mediates a potential ecophysiological trade‐off between adult performance and juvenile recruitment in the microendemic lizard Ameivula jalapensis. While open, burned habitats enhance adult thermoregulation and condition, unburned patches remain critical for juvenile thermal optima.
