Spring ephemeral Erythronium umbilicatum may not be vulnerable to phenological mismatch with overstory trees

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise The defining life history strategy of spring ephemeral wildflowers is their avoidance of shading by trees during the brief, high‐light period before canopy leaf out. Studies suggest that spring ephemerals will experience increased light competition because canopy leaf out is more sensitive to warming than is the phenology of spring ...

Implementation of First‐Line Rapid Genome Sequencing for Children in Pediatric and Cardiac Intensive Care Units

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Substantial data supports the use of rapid exome and genome sequencing (rES/rGS) in Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICU), but fewer studies have examined the impact of rES/rGS in other pediatric critical care units. We evaluated the impact on diagnostic yield and time to diagnosis following a single‐center hospital policy change allowing ...

Tau Pathology in Alzheimer's Disease Uniquely Affects Sulcal Depths

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Though it is widely known that tau deposition affects brain structure, the precise localization of these effects is poorly understood, especially in relation to gyral and sulcal anatomy. We investigated whether tau pathology in Alzheimer's disease (AD) preferentially affects sulci, and particularly sulcal depths.

Functional morphology of the pharyngeal teeth of the ocean sunfish, Mola mola

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Many fish use a set of pharyngeal jaws in their throat to aid in prey capture and processing, particularly of large or complex prey. In this study—combining dissection, CT scanning, histology, and performance testing—we demonstrate a novel use of pharyngeal teeth in the ocean sunfish (Mola mola), a species for which pharyngeal jaw anatomy had ...

Distinct Effects of Complement C4A and C4B Copy Numbers in Systemic Sclerosis Serological and Clinical Subtypes

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Complement component 4 (C4), encoded by C4A and C4B within the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) on chromosome 6, regulates the immune response and clears immune complexes. The variable copy number (CN) of C4 genes and retroviral human endogenous retrovirus K (HERV‐K) element influence its function.

Can boarding schools help looked after and vulnerable children improve academic attainment?

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract The education of children in statutory care, or at the edge of care, is a serious concern for governments and policymakers. How to promote educational opportunities for these children can involve challenging and often contentious proposals. In this paper, we study one proposal put into practice in England: the provision to children who are in ...

Spatial metrics in fire ecology: seeking consistency amidst complexity

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Technological advances, including remote sensing, have led to a proliferation of metrics used in ecological studies to examine spatial patterns of fire regimes and their ecological effects. Researchers can use many different metrics to analyse spatial variation in both fire events and resulting fire regimes, including fire size, shape ...

Venture Funding: Signals of Environmental Orientation and Their Interplay With Investor‐ and Country‐Level Characteristics

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmentally oriented ventures pursue a dual mission: to create both environmental and financial value. This dual mission adds complexity and can influence ventures' funding prospects, as investors mostly pursue financial motivations.

An observation‐driven state‐space model for claims size modelling

Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
Abstract State‐space models are popular in econometrics. Recently, these models have gained some popularity in the actuarial literature. The best known state‐space models are of the Kalman‐filter type. These are called parameter‐driven because the observations do not impact the state‐space dynamics.

Stagewise crop yield prediction with multisource functional indices

Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
Abstract Index insurance design involves integrating weather data, soil moisture, phenology information, and satellite imagery, which presents challenges in data fusion. This article addresses the modelling of multisource functional indices of varying lengths by constructing a stagewise ensemble of sequential models.
