Dataset for the manuscript: "Three-dimensional species distribution modeling reveals the realized spatial niche for coral recruitment on contemporary Caribbean reefs"

<p>Whether the three-dimensional (3D) structure of habitats influences and partition recruitment niches of corals is unknown. We developed a new method that combined Species Distribution Modeling and Structure from Motion to characterize and map the three-dimensional recruitment niches of two ecosystem engineers on Caribbean coral reefs, scleractinian corals and octocorals.&nbsp;</p> <p>In this repository, we include 48 3D models of&nbsp;small areas of the reef&nbsp;(i.e., within ~ 0.25 m<sup>2</sup>&nbsp;quadrats) reconstructed with Structure-from-Motion, as well as the geospatial data used to characterize and map the realized recruitment niche for scleractinian corals&nbsp;and octocorals on Caribbean coral reefs. We conducted the study at two shallow, fringing reefs off the south shore of St. John, US Virgin Islands, named Grootpan and Europa Bays (18&deg; 18.360&rsquo;N, 64&deg; 43.140&rsquo;W, and 18&deg; 19.016&rsquo;N, 64&deg; 43.798&rsquo;W, respectively).&nbsp;Within each 0.25 m<sup>2</sup>&nbsp;quadrat, we counted and marked all recruits (octocorals &le; 5 cm height, and scleractinians &le; 4 cm wide).</p> <p><em>DATASET DESCRIPTIONS:</em></p> <ul> <li><strong>&quot;Quadname_data.zip&quot;:</strong>&nbsp;In each of this&nbsp;folders we included&nbsp;all the data calculated within a quadrat: <ul> <li>ASCII files&nbsp;(.txt).</li> <li>The annotated dense point cloud (.las) for each quadrat.</li> <li>The quadrat 3D model texture (.jpg).</li> <li>The quadrat 3D polygon mesh (.ply).</li> <li>The quadrat 2.5D Digital Elevation Model (i.e., DEM; .tif).</li> <li>Shape files with recruits local coordinates&nbsp;within each quadrat (.dbf, .prj, .shp, .shx).</li> </ul> </li> <li><strong>&quot;datawide.rds&quot;: </strong>This is the file&nbsp;needed to run the analyses performed in&nbsp;Mart&iacute;nez-Quintana et al., 2023.

The second data release from the European Pulsar Timing Array II. Customised pulsar noise models for spatially correlated gravitational waves

<p>Aims: The nanohertz gravitational wave background (GWB) is expected to be an aggregate signal of an ensemble of gravitational waves emitted predominantly by a large population of coalescing supermassive black hole binaries in the centres of merging galaxies. Pulsar tiNanohertz&nbsp;ming arrays (PTAs), which are ensembles of extremely stable pulsars at approximately kiloparsec distances precisely monitored for decades, are the most precise experiments capable of detecting this background. However, the subtle imprints that the GWB induces on pulsar timing data are obscured by many sources of noise that occur on various timescales. These must be carefully modelled and mitigated to increase the sensitivity to the background signal. Methods: In this paper, we present a novel technique to estimate the optimal number of frequency coefficients for modelling achromatic and chromatic noise, while selecting the preferred set of noise models to use for each pulsar. We also incorporated a new model to fit for scattering variations in the Bayesian pulsar timing package temponest. These customised noise models enable a more robust characterisation of single-pulsar noise. We developed a software package based on tempo2 to create realistic simulations of European Pulsar Timing Array (EPTA) datasets that allowed us to test the efficacy of our noise modelling algorithms. Results: Using these techniques, we present an in-depth analysis of the noise properties of 25 millisecond pulsars (MSPs) that form the second data release (DR2) of the EPTA and investigate the effect of incorporating low-frequency data from the Indian Pulsar Timing Array collaboration for a common sample of ten MSPs. We used two packages, enterprise and temponest, to estimate our noise models and compare them with those reported using EPTA DR1. We find that, while in some pulsars we can successfully disentangle chromatic from achromatic noise owing to the wider frequency coverage in DR2, in others the noise models evolve in a much more complicated way. We also find evidence of long-term scattering variations in PSR J1600-3053. Through our simulations, we identify intrinsic biases in our current noise analysis techniques and discuss their effect on GWB searches. The analysis and results discussed in this article directly help to improve the sensitivity to the GWB signal and they are already being used as part of global PTA efforts.</p>

Data from: Emergent spatial patterns can indicate upcoming regime shifts in a realistic model of coral community

<p class="western"><span>Increased stress on coastal ecosystems, such as coral reefs, seagrasses, kelp forests and other habitats can make them shift towards degraded, often algae-dominated or barren communities. This has already occurred in many places around the world, calling for new approaches to identify where such regime shifts may be triggered. Theoretical work predicts that the spatial structure of habitat-forming species should exhibit changes prior to regime shifts,</span><span><em> </em></span><span>such as an increase in spatial autocorrelation. However, extending this theory to marine systems requires theoretical models connecting field-supported ecological mechanisms to data and spatial patterns at relevant scales. To do so, we built a spatially-explicit model of sub-tropical coral communities based on experiments and long-term datasets from Rapa Nui (Easter Island, Chile), to test whether spatial indicators could signal upcoming regime shifts in coral communities. Spatial indicators anticipated degradation of coral communities following increases in frequency of bleaching events or coral mortality. However, they were generally unable to signal shifts that followed herbivore loss, a widespread and well-researched source of degradation, likely because herbivory, despite being critical for the maintenance of corals, had comparatively little effect on their self-organization. Informative trends were found both under equilibrium and non-equilibrium conditions, but were determined by the type of direct neighbor interactions between corals, which remain relatively poorly documented. These inconsistencies show that while this approach is promising, its application to marine systems will require detailed information about the type of stressor, and filling current gaps in our knowledge of interactions at play in coral communities. </span></p>
