Historical Human Causes and Uses of Fire in Alaska

Although wildfire has been central to the ecological dynamics of interior Alaska for 5000 years, the role of humans in this dynamic is not well known. As a multidisciplinary research team, together with Native community partners, we analyzed patterns of human-fire interaction in two contiguous areas of Interior Alaska occupied by different Athabaskan groups. The Koyukon Athabascans in the western Interior considered fire a destructive force and had no oral history or stories suggesting use of fire for landscape management. Low lightning strike density and moist climate constrained occurrence of lightning fires, and a subsistence dependence on a predictable resource (salmon) resulted in a relatively sedentary settlement pattern. In this environment wildfire near communities might have negatively impacted hunting opportunities. In contrast, the Gwich'in Athabascans of the eastern Interior actively used fires to manage the landscape. Lightning fires occurred more frequently here because of greater lightning strike density and warmer summer temperatures. The Gwich'in showed greater mobility in hunting their less spatially predictable subsistence base (moose and caribou), which enabled them to move when wildfires altered local habitat. These striking contrasts between two neighboring Athabaskan groups sharing a contiguous boundary indicated different use and views of fire that were consistent with cultural adaptation to local biophysical and ecological settings. This contrasts with the commonly held view that Native peoples of North America pervasively modified landscapes through use of fire.

African sunbirds predominantly pollinate plants useful to humans

<p>Birds provide multiple ecological services that benefit humans including pollination. In Africa, sunbirds are the <span>domi- </span>nant vertebrate pollinator. Here we present a species-level assessment for African sunbirds of the number and relative frequency of their food plants that have useful properties to humans. <span>We </span>conducted this analysis by compiling and integrating known sunbird food plants with useful tropical plant and tropical cultivated plant databases. Across Africa, 68% of the 329 genera and 44% of the 468 species of sunbirds' known food plants are used by humans for medicine, food, building materials, or other uses. <span>Yet </span>most genera and species of useful plants are visited by a small number of sunbird species. The median number of sunbird species that visit a useful genus and species of plant is two and one, re- spectively. Of the 409 genera and 308 species of useful plants that are sunbird pollinated across one or more of the <span>six </span>predominant habitats for sunbirds, 67% of genera and 71% of species are pollinated by sunbird species that are forest or woodland dependent. Additionally, 58% of all genera and 83% of all species of useful plants pollinated by sunbirds are non-cultivated. In Africa, non-cultivated sunbird-pollinated useful plants are almost entirely collected, used, and traded locally rather than regionally or internationally. Our results indicate that African sunbirds provide important ecological services as pollinators that benefit humans, and these services are provided largely at a local scale. Given the decline of invertebrate and vertebrate pollinators both globally and in Africa, sunbirds are important to the long-term conservation of many useful plants in Africa and hence human well-being.</p>

mRI: multi-modal 3d human pose estimation dataset using mmwave, rgb-d, and inertial sensors

<p>The ability to estimate 3D human body pose and movement, also known as human pose estimation~(HPE), enables many applications for home-based health monitoring, such as remote rehabilitation training. Several possible solutions have emerged using sensors ranging from RGB cameras, depth sensors, millimeter-Wave (mmWave) radars, and wearable inertial sensors. Despite previous efforts on datasets and benchmarks for HPE, few datasets exploit multiple modalities and focus on home-based health monitoring.</p> <p>To bridge this gap, we present <em>mRI</em>, a multi-modal 3D human pose estimation dataset with mmWave, RGB-D, and Inertial Sensors. Our dataset consists of over 5 million frames from 20 subjects performing rehabilitation exercises and supports the benchmarks of HPE and action detection. We perform extensive experiments using our dataset and delineate the strength of each modality.</p> <p>We hope that the release of <em>mRI</em> can catalyze the research in pose estimation, multi-modal learning, and action understanding, and more importantly, facilitate the applications of home-based health monitoring.</p>

Native forest and proximity to humans are stronger drivers of Brazilian cottontail habitat use than invasive European hare

<p>Human activities and biological invasions have caused unprecedented biodiversity loss over the past 500 years. Proximity to humans drives the spatial distribution of species toward less disturbed habitats. Invasive species can competitively exclude native species, but species may coexist due to different habitat preferences. Here, we investigated how proximity to farms and the presence of the non-native European hare (<em>Lepus europaeus</em>) influence the habitat use by the Brazilian cottontail (<em>Sylvilagus minensis</em>) in southeastern Brazil. We found that the probability of cottontail site use increased with native forest cover and decreased with farmhouse proximity, ranging from 0.05 (<em>SE</em> = 0.02) at sites close to farmhouses (≅ 900 m) with no native forest to 0.70 (<em>SE</em> = 0.15) at sites far from farmhouses (≅ 2500 m) dominated by native forest. Higher risk of harassment and predation by free-roaming dogs and cats may explain the negative effect of farmhouse proximity on cottontail habitat use. We found little evidence for competitive exclusion by the European hare. Instead, our results suggest that the two species spatially segregate due to different habitat preferences. While the European hare more likely uses farmland in its native and non-native range, our results suggest that the Brazilian cottontail is a forest dweller. Although we found only weak evidence of competitive exclusion, we advise caution because invasive species may delay the onset of detrimental effects due to initial low population densities in newly invaded areas as is the case of the European hare in southeastern Brazil.</p>

Data from: Northern pikas experience reduced occupancy due to surrounding human land use despite the occurrence of suitable microclimates

<p>Aim: Despite warming temperatures, some species are found persisting at the trailing edge of their distribution. Microclimates provided by complex topography are considered a key factor in these cases of range stationarity, buffering stress from exposure to warming and enabling persistence. However, for species with trailing-edges located in human-modified landscapes, refugial conditions provided by microclimates could be disrupted by human activities. Here, we aimed to understand the determinants of trailing-edge occupancy for a small lagomorph found in rocky patches harboring cool microclimates.</p> <p>Location: Hokkaido Island, Japan</p> <p>Taxon: Northern pika (<em>Ochotona hyperborea</em>)</p> <p>Methods: We surveyed the occupancy of northern pikas across a wide elevational gradient (350–2200 m) for two consecutive summers. Ambient air and microhabitat (i.e., rock interstices) thermal conditions were measured to assess their relationship. We then analyzed their effects on occupancy at two nested spatial scales: (1) whole-distribution, and (2) at identified trailing-edge sites where we explored the effects of microclimates and surrounding human activities (i,e., distance to nearest road and area of human land use such as plantation forests or agricultural fields).</p> <p>Results: Overall, rock interstices exhibited cooler conditions than ambient air with temperature differences of 1–2 ºC. The overall distribution of northern pikas was affected by both mean ambient temperature and microhabitat availability, with warmer (lower elevation) sites with less microhabitats corresponding to the trailing edge of its distribution. Interestingly, trailing edge occupancy patterns were best explained by the negative effect of surrounding human land despite the existence of suitable microclimates in the rocky patches.</p> <p>Main conclusions: Our findings suggest that the local refugial conditions supported by cool microclimates are likely to be disrupted by the effects of human land at the larger landscape scale. This result highlights the importance of considering the effects of human activities and landscape alteration for effective microrefugia conservation. --</p>

Data from: Exploring the multi-level impacts of a youth-led comprehensive sexuality education model in Madagascar using human-centered design methods

<p>Comprehensive sexuality education (CSE) is recognized as a critical tool for addressing sexuality and reproductive health challenges among adolescents. However, little is known about the broader impacts of CSE on populations beyond adolescents, such as schools, families, and communities. This study explores multi-level impacts of an innovative CSE program in Madagascar, which employs young adult CSE educators to teach a three-year curriculum in government middle schools across the country. The two-phased study embraced a participatory approach and qualitative Human-centered Design (HCD) methods. In phase 1, 90 school principals and administrators representing 45 schools participated in HCD workshops, which were held in six regional cities. Phase 2 took place one year later, which included 50 principals from partner schools, and focused on expanding and validating findings from phase 1. From the perspective of school principals and administrators, the results indicate several areas in which CSE programming is having spill-over effects, beyond direct adolescent student sexuality knowledge and behaviors. In the case of this youth-led model in Madagascar, the program has impacted the lives of students (e.g., increased academic motivation and confidence), their parents (e.g., strengthened family relationships and increased parental involvement in schools), their<br>schools (e.g., increased perceived value of schools and teacher effectiveness), their communities (e.g., increased community connections), and impacted broader structural issues (e.g., improved equity and access to resources such as menstrual pads). While not all impacts of the CSE program were perceived as positive (e.g., students start experimenting with sex and love), the findings uncovered opportunities for targeting investments and refining CSE programming to maximize positive impacts at family, school, and community levels.</p>
