The spread of non‐native species

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global redistribution of species through human agency is one of the defining ecological signatures of the Anthropocene, with biological invasions reshaping biodiversity patterns, ecosystem processes and services, and species interactions globally.

Environmental and local habitat variables as predictors of trophic interactions in subtidal rocky reefs along the SE Pacific coast

Ecography, EarlyView.
Temperature generally drives latitudinal patterns in the strength of trophic interactions, including consumption rates. However, local community and other environmental conditions might also affect consumption, disrupting latitudinal gradients, which results in complex large‐scale patterns.

Comparative Study of Accommodative Function and Binocular Vision in Patients With Primary Angle‐Closure Disease

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The age‐related decline in accommodative function after the age of 50 years corresponds with an increasing incidence of primary angle‐closure disease (PACD); however, the interaction between this decline and PACD remains unexamined. Additionally, refractive error‐accommodation associations in elderly individuals, which are critical for PACD ...

Ocular Motor Abnormalities in Functional Neurological Disorder: A Video‐Oculography Study

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Functional neurological disorders (FND) can include various sensory, motor or cognitive symptoms. Eye movement recordings, measured through video‐oculography, could serve as biomarkers for characterizing these dysfunctions in FND.

Convergence Deficits in Myoclonus‐Dystonia Point to Cerebellar Impairment

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Myoclonus‐dystonia (M‐D) is a monogenic movement disorder, with proposed cerebellar dysfunction. Vergence eye movement deficits, characteristics of degenerative cerebellar disease, have not been studied in M‐D. Cerebellar transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) is considered a potential therapeutic approach.

The effects of flower supplementation on pollinators and pollination along an urbanisation gradient

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Enhancing urban greenspaces for pollinator communities by planting flower patches is increasingly common, but their efficacy for different groups of insects (bees, hoverflies and moths) is unclear. Our city‐scale experiment demonstrated that the effect of flower patches on pollinators is complex, and direct benefits to specific insects are difficult to

Twin‐Wire In Situ Additive Manufacturing of NiTiNb Eutectic Alloys: Eliminating Unmelted Nb Particles and Tailored Superelasticity

Rare Metals, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A major challenge in fabricating eutectic NiTiNb alloys is the incomplete melting of Nb due to its much higher melting point than the NiTi matrix. In this work, a novel electron‐beam freeform additive manufacturing strategy is developed to eliminate unmelted Nb particles and achieve a fully eutectic structure through independent dual‐wire ...

The Epistemic Generativity of Using a Model of a Big Idea

Science Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Science instruction should involve learners in generating and warranting ideas, what we call epistemic generation. In modeling instruction, epistemic generation should be achieved by coordinating a model structure with the experienced world in reciprocal directions denoted as developing models and using models. In the former, a model structure
