Metacognition and Cognitive Flexibility in Autistic and Neurotypically-Developing Populations. [PDF]
ASD individuals can have superior metacognition in the tasks that rely on visuo‐spatial cognition. Cognitive flexibility is diminished by overconfidence, not by metacognitive deficit. ABSTRACT Purpose Whether and how metacognition is altered in individuals with autistic spectrum disorder (ASD) is intensely debated.

Mapping the density of giant trees in the Amazon. [PDF]
Summary Tall trees (height ≥ 60 m) are keystone elements of tropical forests, strongly influencing biodiversity, carbon storage, and ecosystem resilience. Yet, their density and spatial distribution remain poorly quantified, especially in remote Amazonian regions, limiting our understanding of their ecological roles and contribution to forest–climate ...

Building momentum through networks: Bioimaging across the Americas. [PDF]
Abstract In September 2023, the two largest bioimaging networks in the Americas, Latin America Bioimaging (LABI) and BioImaging North America (BINA), came together during a 1‐week meeting in Mexico. This meeting provided opportunities for participants to interact closely with decision‐makers from imaging core facilities across the Americas. The meeting

Biogeographical Distribution of River Microbial Communities in Atlantic Catchments. [PDF]
We discovered different factors affecting river microbial communities (RMC) diversity and composition across Atlantic catchments in Europe. Prokaryote diversity was mainly influenced by topography and geology, while eukaryotic groups were driven by land use and cover.

High genetic diversity and stable Pleistocene distributional ranges in the widespread Mexican red oak Quercus castanea Née (1801) (Fagaceae). [PDF]
High genetic diversity in Mexican oaks. High phylogeographic structure in a widespread oak species. Abstract The Mexican highlands are areas of high biological complexity where taxa of Nearctic and Neotropical origin and different population histories are found.

Influence of Host and Landscape-Associated Factors in the Infection and Transmission of Pathogens: The Case of Directly Transmitted Virus in Mammals. [PDF]
The figure shows the effects (increasing upward arrow or decreasing downward arrow) the most common host traits, landscape attributes, climatic features and anthropogenic variables recorded in the review had on the infection and transmission of directly transmitted virus to mammals.

Short Abstract The dynamic construction of law and marine space is illustrated by the socio‐legal history of the Seaflower marine biosphere reserve over 20 years (2000–2021). From its establishment to its fragmentation and rejuvenation, the marine reserve has served the purposes of territorialisation, a space to be claimed by the states to exercise ...

Abstract Protist plankton are major members of open‐water marine food webs. Traditionally divided between phototrophic phytoplankton and phagotrophic zooplankton, recent research shows many actually combine phototrophy and phagotrophy in the one cell; these protists are the “mixoplankton.” Under the mixoplankton paradigm, “phytoplankton” are incapable ...

Methods and tools for causal discovery and causal inference
In recent years, the study of causal relationships has become a crucial part of the AI community, as causality can be a key tool for overcoming some limitations of correlation‐based machine learning systems. This survey does not only focus on theoretical aspects.

Admixture may be extensive among hyperdominant Amazon rainforest tree species
Summary Admixture is a mechanism by which species of long‐lived plants may acquire novel alleles. However, the potential role of admixture in the origin and maintenance of tropical plant diversity is unclear. We ask whether admixture occurs in an ecologically important clade of Eschweilera (Parvifolia clade, Lecythidaceae), which includes some of the ...
