SiC nano for PicoGeo project animated video
<p>This animated video is designed to reach the general public, given its cartoon form and its non-technical content that aims to present the project in general. However, it is also aimed at getting potential stakeholders attracted by the ideas conveyed by the project to take a more conscious interest in SiC Nano for PicoGeo. The main message conveyed given by the video is that improving the sensitivity of current strain meter technology – i.e., the goal of the Sic nano for PicoGeo project – is key to enhancing geoscience and geohazard monitoring, which directly affects the more excellent safety of the population in the earthquake and volcanic risk areas. </p>
Knowledge of returning wildlife species and willingness to participate in citizen science projects among wildlife park visitors in Germany
<p>Successful conservation efforts have led to recent increases of large mammals such as European bison (Bison bonasus), moose (Alces alces) and grey wolf (Canis lupus) and their return to former habitats in central Europe. While embraced by some, the recovery of these species is a controversial topic and holds potential for human-wildlife conflicts. Involving the public has been suggested to be an effective method for monitoring wildlife and mitigating associated conflicts. To assess two interrelated prerequisites for engaging people in Citizen Science (CS) – knowledge of returning species and respondents' readiness to participate in CS activities for monitoring and managing these species – we conducted a survey (questionnaire) in two wildlife parks located in different states of Germany. Based on 472 complete questionaires, we developed generalized linear models to 1) understand how sociodemographic variables and exposure to the species affected visitors' knowledge of each species, and to 2) investigate if sociodemographic variables and knowledge influenced the likelihood of visitors to participate in CS activities. Almost all visitors were aware of the returning wolf population, while knowledge and awareness about bison and moose were significantly lower. Knowledge of the two herbivores differed geographically (higher knowledge of moose in the north-eastern state), possibly indicating a positive association between exposure to the species and knowledge. However, models generally performed poorly in predicting knowledge about wildlife, suggesting that such specific knowledge is insufficiently explained by sociodemographic variables. Our model to explain stated willingness in CS indicated that younger participants and those with higher knowledge scores in the survey were more willing to engage in CS activities. Overall, our analyses highlight how exposure to large mammals, knowledge about wildlife and human demographics are interrelated - insights that are helpful for effectively recruiting citizen scientists for wildlife conservation.</p>

Projected climatic changes lead to biome changes in areas of previously constant biome
<p class="Indentedmaintext"><b>Aim: </b>Recent studies in southern Africa identified past biome stability as an important predictor of biodiversity. We aimed to assess the extent to which past biome stability predicts present global biodiversity patterns, and the extent to which projected climatic changes may lead to eventual biome changes in areas with constant past biome.</p> <p class="Indentedmaintext"><b>Location: </b>Global.</p> <p class="Indentedmaintext"><b>Taxon: </b>Spermatophyta; terrestrial vertebrates.</p> <p class="Indentedmaintext"><b>Methods: </b>Biome constancy was assessed and mapped using results from 89 dynamic global vegetation model simulations, driven by outputs of palaeoclimate experiments spanning the past 140 ka. We tested the hypothesis that terrestrial vertebrate diversity is predicted by biome constancy. We also simulated potential future vegetation, and hence potential future biome patterns, and quantified and mapped the extent of projected eventual future biome change in areas of past constant biome.</p> <p class="Indentedmaintext"><b>Results: </b>Approximately 11% of global ice-free land had a constant biome since 140 ka. Aside from areas of constant Desert, many areas with constant biome support high species diversity. All terrestrial vertebrate groups show a strong positive relationship between biome constancy and vertebrate diversity in areas of greater diversity, but no relationship in less diverse areas. Climatic change projected by 2100 commits 46–66% of global ice-free land, and 34–52% of areas of past constant biome (excluding areas of constant Desert) to eventual biome change.</p> <p class="Indentedmaintext"><b>Main conclusions: </b>Past biome stability strongly predicts vertebrate diversity in areas of higher diversity. Future climatic changes will lead to biome changes in many areas of past constant biome, with profound implications for biodiversity conservation. Some projected biome changes will result in substantial reductions in biospheric carbon sequestration and other ecosystem services.</p>
Data and code from: Mixed infection, risk projection and misdirection: Interactions among pathogens alter links between host resources and disease
<p>A growing body of literature links resources of hosts to their risk of infectious disease. Yet most hosts encounter multiple pathogens, and projections of disease risk based on resource availability could be fundamentally wrong if they do not account for interactions among pathogens within hosts. Here, we measured infection risk of grass hosts (<i>Avena sativa</i>) exposed to three naturally-co-occurring viruses either singly or jointly (barley and cereal yellow dwarf viruses [B/CYDVs]: CYDV-RPV, BYDV-PAV, and BYDV-SGV) along experimental gradients of nitrogen and phosphorus supply. We asked whether disease risk (i.e., infection prevalence) differed in single versus co-inoculations, and whether these differences varied with rates and ratios of nitrogen and phosphorus supply. In single inoculations, the viruses did not respond strongly to nitrogen or phosphorus. However, in co-inoculations, we detected illustrative cases of 1) resource-dependent antagonism (RPV with increasing N; possibly due to competition), 2) resource-dependent facilitation (SGV with decreasing N:P; possibly due to immunosuppression), and 3) weak or no interactions within hosts (for PAV). Together, these within-host interactions created emergent patterns for co-inoculated hosts, with both infection prevalence and viral richness increasing with the combination of low nitrogen and high phosphorus supply. We demonstrate that knowledge of multiple pathogens is essential for predicting disease risk from host resources, and that projections of risk that fail to acknowledge resource-dependent interactions within hosts could be qualitatively wrong. Expansions of theory from community ecology theory may help anticipate such relationships linking host resources to diverse pathogen communities.</p>
