DiceCT for fishes: recommendations for pairing iodine contrast agents with μCT to visualize soft tissues in fishes
(Blackwell Publishing LtdWiley Periodicals, Inc., 2023-04)
Computed tomography (CT) scanning and other high-throughput three-dimensional (3D) visualization tools are transforming the ways we study morphology, ecology and evolutionary biology research beyond generating vast digital ...
Tree growth periodicity in the ever-wet tropical forest of the Americas
(Santa fé de BogotáWiley Periodicals, Inc., 2023-04)
The occurrence of annual growth rings in tropical trees—the result of the seasonal activity of vascular cambium—has been explained by seasonal water deficit or flooding periods. However, little is known about the drivers ...
5-Species MHD Study of Martian Proton Loss and Source
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc., 2023-04)
Although photochemistry-enabled escape of oxygen is a dominant atmospheric loss process at Mars today, ion outflow plays an essential role in the long-term evolution of Mars’ atmosphere. Apart from heavy planetary ions ...
Bringing light onto the Raunkiæran shortfall: A comprehensive review of traits used in functional animal ecology
(Oxford University PressWiley Periodicals, Inc., 2023-04)
Trait-based approaches elucidate the mechanisms underlying biodiversity response to, or effects on, the environment. Nevertheless, the Raunkiæran shortfall—the dearth of knowledge on species traits and their functionality—presents ...
Fungal community composition and genetic potential regulate fine root decay in northern temperate forests
(Academic PressWiley Periodicals, Inc., 2023-04)
Understanding how genetic differences among soil microorganisms regulate spatial patterns in litter decay remains a persistent challenge in ecology. Despite fine root litter accounting for ~50% of total litter production ...
Seasonal Variations in Triple Oxygen Isotope Ratios of Precipitation in the Western and Central United States
(USGSWiley Periodicals, Inc., 2023-04)
Triple oxygen isotope ratios (∆′17O) offer new opportunities to improve reconstructions of past climate by quantifying evaporation, relative humidity, and diagenesis in geologic archives. However, the utility of ∆′17O in ...
Patterns in sources and forms of nitrogen in a large eutrophic lake during a cyanobacterial harmful algal bloom
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2023-04)
Western Lake Erie experiences an annual, toxic cyanobacterial harmful algal bloom (cyanoHAB), primarily caused by excess anthropogenic inputs of nitrogen (N) and phosphorous (P). Because the non-N fixing cyanobacteria ...
Integrating sample similarities into latent class analysis: a tree-structured shrinkage approach
(SpringerWiley Periodicals, Inc., 2023-03)
This paper is concerned with using multivariate binary observations to estimate the probabilities of unobserved classes with scientific meanings. We focus on the setting where additional information about sample similarities ...

(Harvard University, 2024-05-15)
Main and supplementary Figures for publication titled "Reclassification of the Bertholletia clade of the Brazil nut family (Lecythidaceae) based on a phylogenetic analysis of plastome and target sequence capture data"
A framework for advancing sustainable magnetic resonance imaging access in Africa
(RAD-AID InternationalWiley Periodicals, Inc., 2023-03)
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology has profoundly transformed current healthcare systems globally, owing to advances in hardware and software research innovations. Despite these advances, MRI remains largely ...
