- Description:
- This section contains work related to the modeling of voltage degradation in a 24 cell PEM fuel cell stack with 300 cm2 cross-sectional area. The experimental hardware used to validate the model consists of a computer controlled system that coordinates air, hydrogen, cooling, and electrical subsystems to operate the stack. Dry hydrogen is pressure regulated for full utilization in the dead-ended anode. Using a solenoid valve, the anode is periodically purged to recover the gradual degradation in voltage. A membrane based humidifier controls the vapor content of the cathode gas stream while a mass flow controller is used to regulate the flow to the desired stoichiometry.

- Description:
- Here we present an investigation of the variability of Venus' extended oxygen corona. For that, we employ a combination of a fluid model VTGCM for simulating Venus' ionosphere and thermosphere and kinetic model AMPS. We have found excellent agreement of the model results with PVO observations of the corona when the modeling is done assuming the solar maximum conditions, which corresponds to the solar conditions during the observations. We also found that the oxygen density strongly depends on the solar conditions and varies by order of magnitude over a solar cycle. That explains why the extended oxygen corona was observed only at the solar maximum. The result presented in this paper will be used in a later study of the planet's interaction with the ambient solar wind, where the corona model defines the mass loading coefficient.

- Description:
- Image Pre-Processing To allow reliable detection and comparison of changes between several individuals or within the same individual at different time points, before extracting the quantitative bone texture/morphometry features, all hr-CBCT scans were pre-processed using validated protocols. Extraction of Trabecular Bone Texture-based and Morphometry Imaging Features Using the “crop-volume” tool in 3D Slicer, a rectangular shaped volume of interest (VOI) was cropped from the trabecular bone in the mandibular condyles and the articular fossa. Then, using the average minimum and maximum intensity values of all VOIs, we standardized the grey level intensities of the VOIs to eliminate inaccuracies of textural features calculation and possible dependency on the global characteristics of the images. Lastly, imaging markers were extracted from the standardized VOIs using “BoneTexture” module in 3D-slicer. Measurement of the 3D Articular Joint Space To assess the progression/improvement of osteoarthritic changes in the affected individuals, we measured the 3D superior joint space. We pre-labelled two landmarks in the sagittal view of the oriented CBCT scans: on the most superior point of the condyle and on the opposing surface of the articular fossa. To avoid biasing the landmarks’ placements, pre-labelling was performed simultaneously on T1 and T2 scans, using two independent windows in ITK-SNAP. After the volumetric reconstruction of the identified landmarks, linear measurements were obtained in millimeters using the Q3DC tool in 3D Slicer. Three-dimensional Shape Analyses and Quantification of Remodeling in the Condyles SPHARM-PDM software was used to compute the correspondence across 4002 surface points among all condyles. The output point-based models displayed color-coded maps that enabled visual evaluation of consistent parametrization of all condyles. An average condyle shape for the TMJ OA and control groups was calculated through propagation of original surface point correspondences across all stages of deformations and averaging the condyle surface meshes. For visualization of the 3D qualitative changes of the average models within the same group at different time points or among different groups, semi-transparent overlays were created using 3D Slicer software. The vector differences were presented on the condyle surfaces, scaled according to the magnitude of difference, and pointing towards the direction of bone change. For quantification of remodeling in the condyles, calculation of signed distances across condyles surface meshes reflected the quantitative bone changes in the TMJ OA and control samples. To quantify regional bone changes across the lateral and anterior surfaces of the condyles, we used the Pick ‘n Paint tool in 3D Slicer to propagate regional surface points to the corresponding regions of shapes across all subjects and time points.

- Description:
- Accurate estimation of hydro-meteorological variables is essential for adaptive water management in the North American Laurentian Great Lakes. However, only a limited number of monthly datasets are available nowadays that encompass all components of net basin supply (NBS), such as over-lake precipitation (P), evaporation (E), and total runoff (R). To address this gap, we developed a daily hydro-meteorological dataset covering an extended period from 1979 to 2022 for each of the Great Lakes. The daily P and E were derived from six global gridded reanalysis climate datasets (GGRCD) that include both P and E estimates, and R was calculated from National Water Model (NWM) simulations. Ensemble mean values of the difference between P and E (P – E) and NBS were obtained by analyzing daily P, E, and R. Monthly averaged values derived from our new daily dataset were validated against existing monthly datasets. This daily hydro-meteorological dataset has the potential to serve as a validation resource for current data and analysis of individual NBS components. Additionally, it could offer a comprehensive depiction of weather and hydrological processes in the Great Lakes region, including the ability to record extreme events, facilitate enhanced seasonal analysis, and support hydrologic model development and calibration. The source code and data representation/analysis figures are also made available in the data repository.

- Description:
- Inland lakes play a critical role in ecosystem stability, and robust validation of lake models is essential for understanding their dynamics. While remote sensing data can assist with lake surface temperature validation, in situ data typically provides more accurate, reliable data not limited to only the lake surface. However, in situ temperature data for many individual lakes, particularly in North America, is difficult for researchers to quickly access in a standardized format. This database offers a well-organized collection of in situ near-surface and subsurface temperatures from 134 sites divided among 29 large North American inland lakes collected from a variety of sources. The database includes multiple subsurface temperatures throughout the depth profile of 84 of these sites, providing comprehensive data for lake model evaluation. All lakes selected for this database are large enough (over approximately 30 km^2 to be represented by large-scale operational weather models, supporting robust lake model validation efforts on the lakes that have the greatest impact on climatology.

- Description:
- Warning signals in chemically defended organisms are critical components of predator-prey interactions, often requiring multiple coordinated display components for a signal to be effective. When threatened by a predator, venomous coral snakes (genus Micrurus) display a vigorous, non-locomotory thrashing behaviour that has been only qualitatively described. Given the high-contrast and often colourful banding patterns of these snakes, this thrashing display is hypothesized to be a key component of a complex aposematic signal under strong stabilizing selection across species in a mimicry system. By experimentally testing snake response across simulated predator cues, we analysed variation in the presence and expression of a thrashing display across five species of South American coral snakes. Although the major features of the thrash display were conserved across species, we found significant variation in the propensity to perform a display at all, the duration of thrashing, and the curvature of snake bodies that was mediated by predator cue type, snake body size, and species identity. We also found an interaction between curve magnitude and body location that clearly shows which parts of the display vary most across individuals and species. Our results suggest that contrary to the assumption in the literature that all species and individuals perform the same display, a high degree of variation persists in thrashing behaviour exhibited by Micrurus coral snakes despite presumably strong selection to converge on a common signal. This quantitative behavioural characterization presents a new framework for analysing the non-locomotory motions displayed by snakes in a broader ecological context, especially for signalling systems with complex interaction across multiple modalities.

- Description:
- The goal of this project is to develop a first principle driven approach for predicting the self-assembly behavior of entropically driven crystallization. We first developed a set of mean-field theoretical framework that captures the relevant energetic contributions to the assembly process and then evaluate relevant terms within our framework to determine the excess free energy of formation for each lattice (matlab/octave codes). We then validate theoretical predictions of relevant features like shape and bonding orbitals using standard MD simulations using HOOMD-Blue (simulation scripts). and This research was supported by the Office of the Undersecretary of Defense for Research and Engineering (OUSD(R&E)), Newton Award for Transformative Ideas during the COVID-19 Pandemic, Award number HQ00342010030.

- Description:
- We carry out a set of exploratory numerical experiments based on ocean bottom pressure and seismic data from a simulated linear array of SMART (Scientific Monitoring And Reliable Telecommunication) cable stations off the trench in the Sumatra-Java region. We use a set of earthquake rupture as well as submarine landslide scenarios to calculate tsunami propagation via hydrodynamic simulations. We also investigate the contribution of SMART stations to improvement of earthquake early warning by calculating the arrival times of seismic phases. Existing telecom cables can also contribute to the SMART network, if they are equipped with scientific sensors and repeaters. In this study we use the MOST (Method of Splitting Tsunami; Titov et al, 2016) to simulate tsunamis, and the TauP toolkit (Crotwell et al, 1999) to calculate seismic arrival times. This study was supported by grants from National Science Foundation (PREEVENTS geosciences directorate No. 1663769) and NASA JPL (Award NNN13D462T). - Crotwell, H.P., Owens, T.J. and Ritsema, J., 1999.

- Description:
- The Multifaceted Optimization Algorithm (MOA) is a tool for generating corrected empirical model thermospheric densities during geomagnetic storms. It consists of a suite of Python functions that operate around the Spacecraft Orbit Characterization Kit (SpOCK), an orbital propagator developed by Charles D. Bussy-Virat, PhD, Joel Getchius, and Aaron J. Ridley, PhD at the University of Michigan, and it estimates new densities for the NRLMSISE-00 atmospheric model. MOA generates new model densities by estimating modifications to inputs to the NLRMSISE-00 model that minimize the orbit error between modeled spacecraft in SpOCK, and their actual altitudes as described in publicly-available Two-Line Element Sets (TLEs), made available online via Space-track.org. MOA consists of three sub-process: (1) The Area Optimization Algorithm (AROPT), (2) the F10.7 Optimization Algorithm (FOPT), and (3) the Ap Optimization Algorithm (APOPT). AROPT computes the contribution to the drag of the modeled spacecraft due to their varying projected area. FOPT estimates modifications to the 10.7 cm solar radio flux in NRLMSISE-00, and APOPT estimates modifications to the Earth's magnetic activity in NRLMSISE-00. MOA finds these modifications across many spacecraft, and the medians of those modifications are then applied in NLRMSISE-00 along the orbit of another satellite to generate new densities for verification. In this instance, modifications are applied along the orbits of the Swarm spacecraft and compared to Swarm GPS-derived densities.

- Description:
- Studying the effect of wind on urban air mobility typically requires comprehensive fluid dynamics simulations in a realistic urban geometry. Motivated to enable wide-spread autonomous drone activity in urban centers, such studies have indeed been considered by several authors in the recent literature. However, the accessibility of these approaches to those with less fluid dynamics experience and/or without access to purpose built simulation tools has limited validation and application of the resulting path planning strategies. and The .dat files contain the flow variables for each of the 402240 points sampled from the region under study. For flow visualization purposes, the .dat files are readable using Tecplot Software.

- Description:
- We present a comprehensive statistical analysis of high-frequency transient-large-amplitude (TLA) magnetic perturbation events that occurred at 12 high-latitude ground magnetometer stations throughout solar cycle 24 from 2009 to 2019. TLA signatures are defined as one or more second-timescale dB/dt interval with magnitude ≥ 6 nT/s within an hour event window. This study characterizes high-frequency TLA events based on their spatial and temporal behavior as well as relation to auroral substorms, geomagnetic storm phases and nighttime geomagnetic disturbance events events (GMD). We show that TLA events occur primarily at nighttime and solely in the high-latitude region above 60 degrees geomagnetic latitude. The largest TLA events occurred more often in the declining phase of the solar cycle when solar wind velocity was higher and ring current activity was lower, suggesting association to high-speed flows caused by coronal holes and subsequent corotating interaction regions reaching Earth. TLA perturbations often occurred preceding or within the most extreme nighttime geomagnetic disturbance (GMD) events with 5-10 minute timescales, but the TLA intervals were often even more localized than the ~300 km effective radius of GMDs: occurring at only some of the stations at which GMDs occurred. We show that TLA-related GMD events can result from dipolarization fronts in the magnetotail and fast flows toward Earth and are closely temporally associated to poleward boundary intensifications (PBI) and auroral streamers. The highly localized behavior and connection to the most extreme GMD events suggests that TLA intervals are a ground manifestation of the features within rapid and complex ionospheric structures that can drive GICs.

- Description:
- Jerboas (Jaculus jaculus) are bipedal hopping rodents that frequently transition between gaits (running, hopping, and skipping) throughout their entire speed range. It has been hypothesized that these non-cursorial bipedal gait transitions are likely to enhance their maneuverability and predator evasion ability. However, it is difficult to use the underlying dynamics of these locomotion patterns to predict gait transitions due to the large number of degrees of freedom expressed by the animals. To this end, we used empirical jerboa kinematics and dynamics to develop a unified Spring Loaded Inverted Pendulum model with defined passive swing leg motions. The simulated trajectories from the model precisely matched the experimental data. Jerboas were observed to apply different neutral swing leg angles during locomotion. By investigating the gait structure of the model with coupled and uncoupled neutral swing leg, we found two set of mechanism may explain the frequent gait transitions of jerboas.

- Description:
- This study evaluated the performance of a video-based intervention for improving the belt fit obtained by drivers. Previous laboratory studies have demonstrated that some drivers position their seat belts suboptimally. Specifically, the lap portion of the belt may be higher and farther forward relative to the pelvis than best practice, and the shoulder portion of the belt may be outboard or inboard of mid-shoulder. A video was developed to present the most important aspects of belt fit best practices, with emphasis on the lap belt. The video demonstrated how a seat belt should be routed with respect to an individual’s anatomy to ensure a proper fit. The three key belt fit concepts conveyed in the video were: 1) Lap belt low on hips, touching the thighs. 2) Shoulder belt crossing middle of collarbone. 3) Belt snug, as close to bones as possible. Additional context about the ability to achieve to good belt fit, such as opening a heavy coat or adjusting the height adjusters on the B-pillar behind the windows, were also presented.

- Description:
- Infant eating behavior is likely driven not only by hunger and satiety reflective of caloric need, but also by the reward value of food. The reward value of food can be understood in terms of wanting, liking, and salience. Little is understood about infant response to the reward value of food, or its predictors, particularly prenatally. This project sought to understand whether prenatal factors during pregnancy predict infant reward response to food, as measured by questionnaires in early infancy.

- The modern village of Amaghleba is located 10 km east of Vani at 80 masl and just south of the main east-west road that runs south of the Phasis River. The Kvintsqali runs through the village and powers a corn mill and small hydroelectric generator. The village is located in the Vani administrative district. Previous investigation in an area called Khumlari revealed pottery and rooftiles of the Hellenistic period; Classical period pottery was also found elsewhere in the area of Amaghleba. In 2010 four points of interest were documented in the area of Amaghleba: a Mediaeval pithos located in situ in the yard of Murman Kakamidze (B011); an 11th-century A.D. church (B012); an area on Terduradzisgora that may be Khumlari, where Hellenistic pottery was collected (B013); and the remains of a Mediaeval fortress located on a hill on the southern outskirts of the modern settlement (B016).

- Description:
- On the southern outskirts of the modern village of Amaghleba is a hill which rises to an elevation of 160 masl and is crowned by a Mediaeval fortress. Visible in the slope of the hill above the modern road is a substantial quantity of pottery and tiles, some at least Hellenistic. The topsoil here is quite shallow, and the bedrock, a type of conglomerate, is visible in outcroppings in numerous places. A square tower, oriented north-south east-west, occupies the highest point of the hill, just northwest of a modern cemetery. The preserved structure has a maximum height of 2.7 m at its southwest corner. The north and best preserved wall is 5.1 m long, and the west wall is 4.14 m long and is pierced by break that is not a doorway. The preserved thickness of the west wall is 0.67-0.7 m. The interior face of the walls is slightly curved. The tower is constructed of crude lime mortared masonry. The tower has a spectacular view over the Kvinsquali toward the Phasis River plain, including the area of Khumlari. Hellenistic pottery was collected from the area surrounding the tower.

- Patients included in this study were all males with no prior HIV diagnosis between 18 and 45 years who had at least one primary care encounter between March 2016 and March 2019. We chose 2016 as the index year because the question of the sexual partners’ gender became coded data elements with the clinic contact. Eligible patients were grouped based on reported sexual partners at the most recent disclosure. Individuals who reported having a male sexual partner or both a male and female partner were included in the MSM group. The non-MSM group included individuals who reported only a female partner or no partner. Patients who did not answer the question were excluded from the study. The study proposal was submitted to the Institutional Review Boards of the University of Michigan Medical School and was exempted from ongoing IRB review (HUM00155091). Individual consent was waived for this study.

- These data were produced in the scope of research into understanding the application of zircon (U-Th)/He thermochronometric data derived from rocks with complex radiation damage distributions to the extraction of long-term (>1 Gyr) thermal histories of the Earth's upper crust. The samples used in this study were collected from the Front Range in Colorado, USA. The low-temperature (apatite and zircon (U-Th)/He) thermochronometric ages presented in this data set are sensitive to near-surface temperatures (~80C and 180C, respectively) and record the progressive exhumation of the rock mass from which the samples were collected towards the Earth's surface. These thermochronometric ages, and the differences between them, provide insight into the deep-time (~1000 Ma - 100 Ma) thermal history of the Colorado Front Range.

- Description:
- Apatite fission track thermochronometry data were collected from the Eastern Greater Caucasus orogen, Azerbaijan. Thermochronometry data constrain the history of exhumation and deformation of rocks within the orogen, which is an active accretionary prism. Thermochronometry data record the timing of cooling of a rock sample beneath a given closure temperature. Given an assumed or inferred geothermal gradient, thermochronometric ages can be used to infer exhumation rates and make interpretations about rates of deformation in orogens. The apatite fission track data presented here are analyzed in concert with apatite (U-Th)/He and zircon (U-Th)/He ages reported in Tye et al., in prep., to characterize the exhumation history of the Eastern Greater Caucasus.

- Description:
- Launched in response to the growing crisis of narrative infrastructure, the Detroit River Story Lab is a collaborative, public-facing initiative that leverages the sociocultural, economic, and ecological centrality of the Detroit River corridor to reimagine it as an urban case study in narrative placemaking and civic renewal. Beginning with the premise that place-based storymaking is vital to sustaining democratic values and community capacity for self-determination, the Lab partners on projects designed to support the narrative capacities of local urban communities through the story-telling channels of community journalism, place-based education, and public history., There are many stories from across a variety of periods and contexts that foreground the prevalence of aquatic racialization in our region. These include the legal restrictions placed on Black residents’ access to the Detroit River in the aftermath of the successful escape of Thornton and Lucie Blackburn from Kentucky slave catchers in 1833, repeated episodes of the often violent expulsion of Black workers and residents from Wyandotte and other sundown towns along the Detroit River between the 1870s and 1940s – and the repeated erasure of these stories from official published histories of these towns, the Bob-Lo Excursion Company’s policy, in the 1930’s and 40’s, of barring Blacks from the ferry boats that provided access for Detroiters to the Boblo Island amusement park, a policy famously up-ended by the US Supreme Court in 1948 after being challenged by a 24-year-old Detroit, Sarah Elizabeth Ray, after being ordered to leave the boat, the demolition of the predominantly Black, riverside neighborhood of Black Bottom in Detroit in the 1950s in the name of urban renewal, the UN’s 2014 appeal, on the grounds of basic human rights, for the city of Detroit to restore access to water sourced from their own Detroit River to residents who can’t afford monthly water bills, and consumption restrictions on Detroit River fish important to local populations owing to long histories of environmental degradation., and Considered together, these cases would seem to point to an undertheorized dimension of racialized systems of hierarchy and exclusion in the Great Lakes region and possibly the US more generally. The origins and long-term effects of zones of racial exclusion in the economically decisive domains of work, education, and housing are by now well known. The role of waterways as similarly delineated spaces of privilege and oppression is less commonly noted; in a state whose history has been so thoroughly defined by its lakes and rivers and so regularly scarred by racial conflict, the phenomenon of aquatic racialization calls out for integrative examination and public reckoning.

- Michigan-Mellon’s renewed Egalitarian Metropolis cycle of funding focuses on the city of Detroit and ways that creative practice and the urban humanities can equitably address urban recovery. In tangible ways, The University of Michigan Architecture Preparatory Program (ArcPrep) is already doing just that: creating a sense of optimism and agency for Detroit public high school juniors interested in design and its affiliated fields. , Through an intensive, semester-long studio taught by our Mellon Fellows in Architecture, young designers learn to critically discern Detroit’s complex spatial histories as they explore ways to shape the city’s possible futures. The program takes the students’ talents, creativity, and expertise very seriously, nurturing an inclusionary pedagogical model based broadly on egalitarian educational ideals. In the process, we bring together a network of Taubman College faculty and students, Detroit institutions, community and government organizations, and professional enterprises into conversation and collaboration with students. In the past, ArcPrep has partnered with the Detroit Public Library, the Detroit Institute of Arts, the Detroit Cultivator Community Land Trust, and the Sidewalk Festival, to name a few. With each partnership, we situated culturally contingent, place-based design exercises for students to directly engage with the city and its leaders., and More information about the Michigan Architecture Preparatory Program (ArcPrep) can be found at https://taubmancollege.umich.edu/academics/pre-college-programs/michigan-architecture-prep/

- Description:
- Voice-cloning (VC) systems have seen an exceptional increase in the realism of synthesized speech in recent years. The high quality of synthesized speech and the availability of low-cost VC services have given rise to many potential abuses of this technology such as online smearing campaigns and dissemination of fabricated information etc. A number of detection methodologies have been proposed over the years that can detect voice spoofs with reasonably good accuracy. However, these methodologies are mostly evaluated on clean audio databases, such as Asvspoof 2019. This research aims to evaluate state-of-the-art (SOTA) Audio Spoof Detection approaches in the presence of laundering attacks. In that regard, a new laundering attack database, called ASVspoof Laundering Database, is created. This database is based on the ASVspoof 2019 LA eval database comprising a total of 1388.22 hours of audio recordings. Seven SOTA audio spoof detection approaches are evaluated on this laundered database. The results indicate that SOTA systems perform poorly in the presence of aggressive laundering attacks, especially reverberation and additive noise attacks. This suggests the need for robust audio spoof detection.

This data is not a result of a research but an intermediate product that is used in research. This dataset is generated to train a behavioral cloning framework from gameplay screen captures and keystrokes of an "expert" player. The RL agent that is trained using "RL Baselines Zoo package" acts as the "expert" player, whose decision making process we desire to learn. In addition to behavioral cloning experiments, this dataset is further used to demonstrate the efficacy of a novel incremental tensor decomposition algorithm on image-based data streams.

- Description:
- Traces from single-molecule fluorescence microscopy (SMFM) experiments exhibit photophysical artifacts that typically necessitate human expert screening, which is time-consuming and introduces potential for user-dependent expectation bias. Here, we have used deep learning to develop a rapid, automatic SMFM trace selector, termed AutoSiM, that improves the sensitivity and specificity of an assay for a DNA point mutation based on single-molecule recognition through equilibrium Poisson sampling (SiMREPS). The improved performance of AutoSiM is based on accepting both more true positives and fewer false positives than the conventional approach of hidden Markov modeling (HMM) followed by thresholding. As a second application, the selector was used for automated screening of single-molecule Förster resonance energy transfer (smFRET) data to identify high-quality traces for further analysis, and achieves ~90% concordance with manual selection while requiring less processing time. AutoSiM can be adapted readily to novel datasets, requiring only modest Transfer Learning.

- Description:
- Efficient comparisons of biological color patterns are critical for understanding the mechanisms by which organisms evolve in ecosystems, including sexual selection, predator-prey interactions, and thermoregulation. However, elongate or spiral-shaped organisms do not conform to the standard orientation and photographic techniques required for automated analysis. Currently, large-scale color analysis of elongate animals requires time-consuming manual landmarking, which reduces their representation in coloration research despite their ecological importance. We present Batch-Mask: an automated and customizable workflow to facilitate the analysis of large photographic data sets of non-standard biological subjects. First, we present a user guide to run an open-source region-based convolutional neural network with fine-tuned weights for identifying and isolating a biological subject from a background (masking). Then, we demonstrate how to combine masking with existing manual visual analysis tools into a single streamlined, automated workflow for comparing color patterns across images. Batch-Mask was 60x faster than manual landmarking, produced masks that correctly identified 96% of all snake pixels, and produced pattern energy results that were not significantly different from the manually landmarked data set. The fine-tuned weights for the masking neural network, user guide, and automated workflow substantially decrease the amount of time and attention required to quantitatively analyze non-standard biological subjects. By using these tools, biologists will be able to compare color, pattern, and shape differences in large data sets that include significant morphological variation in elongate body forms. This advance will be especially valuable for comparative analyses of natural history collections, and through automation can greatly expand the scale of space, time, or taxonomic breadth across which color variation can be quantitatively examined.

- Description:
- Detrital zircon age distributions provide robust insights into past sedimentary systems, but these age distributions are often complex and multi-peaked, with sample sizes too small to confidently resolve population distributions. This limited sampling hinders existing quantitative methods for comparing detrital zircon age distributions, which show systematic dependence on the sizes of compared samples. The proliferation of detrital zircon studies motivates the development of more robust quantitative methods. We present the first attempt, to our knowledge, to infer probability model ensembles (PMEs) for samples of detrital zircon ages using a Bayesian method. Our method infers the parent population age distribution from which a sample is drawn, using a Monte Carlo approach to aggregate a representative set of probability models that is consistent with the constraints that the sample data provide. Using the PMEs inferred from sample data, we develop a new estimate of correspondence between detrital zircon populations called Bayesian Population Correlation (BPC). Tests of BPC on synthetic and real detrital zircon age data show that it is nearly independent from sample size bias, unlike existing correspondence metrics. Robust BPC uncertainties can be readily estimated, enhancing interpretive value. When comparing two partially overlapping zircon age populations where the shared proportion of each population is independently varied, BPC results conform almost perfectly to expected values derived analytically from probability theory. This conformity of experimental and analytical results permits direct inference of the shared proportions of two detrital zircon age populations from BPC. We provide MATLAB scripts to facilitate the procedures we describe.

- Description:
- In this study, we experimentally tested for the effects of four simulated predator cues on defensive displays in two species of South American calico snakes (genus Oxyrhopus). We found that juvenile snakes were both more likely to respond and to respond more strongly than adults and that displays were most common in response to tactile stimuli than to other treatments. However, we also found broad similarity across both simulated predator treatments and species in the components used in each snake’s defensive display, suggesting a high degree of stereotyping. This research suggests an important role for both ontogeny and intensity of predation risk in structuring variation in defensive behavior in Neotropical snakes and emphasizes the foundational importance of context dependence in conceptual frameworks for understanding predator-prey interactions. and *On January 4, 2024, “Supplementary_material.pdf” was replaced with an updated version that has slightly different versions of Figures S4 and S8 after an error in code was corrected. Within “HeatmapFigures.zip,” two code files, “IndividualHeatmaps_matrices.R” and “FigureS4_S8_averagedHeatmaps.R” were updated to correct the code error. Three additional files were added to both the “figures” and “matrices” folders within the subfolder “heatmaps.” These files represent the correlation matrices, by body part, and graphical representation of the matrices for one experimental trial that had previously been excluded due to the code error.
