Accounting for environmental variation in co‐occurrence modelling reveals the importance of positive interactions in root‐associated fungal communities
<p>Understanding the role of interspecific interactions in shaping ecological communities is one of the central goals in community ecology. In fungal communities, measuring interspecific interactions directly is challenging because these communities are composed of large numbers of species, many of which are unculturable. An indirect way of assessing the role of interspecific interactions in determining community structure is to identify the species co-occurrences that are not constrained by the environmental conditions. In this study, we investigated co-occurrences among root-associated fungi, asking whether fungi co-occur more or less strongly than expected based on the environmental conditions and the host plant species examined. For this purpose, we generated molecular data on root-associated fungi of five plant species evenly sampled along an elevational gradient at a high Arctic site. We analysed the data using a joint species distribution modelling approach that allowed us to identify those co-occurrences that could be explained by the environmental conditions and the host plant species, as well as those co-occurrences that remained unexplained and thus more likely reflect interactive associations. Our results indicate that positive interactions play an important role in shaping microbial communities in arctic plant roots. In particular, we found that mycorrhizal fungi are especially prone to positively co-occur with other fungal species. Our results bring new understanding to the structure of arctic interaction networks by suggesting that interactions among root-associated fungi are predominantly positive.</p>
Data for the Community Pandemic Accounts Project
<p>On March 10, the first case of COVID-19 was diagnosed in Michigan. Since then, there have been many changes to everyday life, such as the "Stay Home, Stay Safe" executive order urging Michiganders to limit contact with others. The Western Michigan University Libraries conducted a data collection/history project that serves to understand how our regional community has been coping and adapting to these changes. The University community’s personal memories and experiences will provide a more nuanced view into these unprecedented times, while basic demographics will serve to contextualize their experiences. Collected accounts are primarily disseminated as a publicly available de-identified dataset for researchers to better understand pandemic impacts during this time period, and as a historical artifact through the Zhang Archive in 2025 that connects names to accounts.</p> <p>This dataset contains two files, a deidentified csv and a plain text README file with variable descriptions.</p>

Equity, community, and accountability: Leveraging a department-level climate survey as a tool for action
<p>Organizational climate is a key determinant of diverse aspects of success in work settings, including in academia. Power dynamics in higher education can result in inequitable experiences of workplace climate, potentially harming the well-being and productivity of employees. Quantifying experiences of climate across employment categories can help identify changes necessary to create a more equitable workplace for all. We developed and administered a climate survey within our academic workplace—the Department of Zoology and Physiology at the University of Wyoming—to evaluate experiences of climate across three employment categories: faculty, graduate students, and staff. Our survey included a combination of closed-response (e.g., Likert-scale) and open-ended questions. Most department members (82%) completed the survey, which was administered in fall 2021. Faculty generally reported more positive experiences than staff. Graduate students often fell between these two groups, though in some survey sections (e.g., mental health and well-being) students reported the most negative experiences of departmental climate. Three common themes emerged from the analysis of open-ended responses: equity, community, and accountability. We discuss how these themes correspond to concrete action items for improving our departmental climate, some of which have been implemented already, while others constitute future initiatives and/or require a collective push towards systemic change in academia. Finally, service work of this type often falls outside of job descriptions, requiring individuals to either work more or trade-off productivity in other areas that are formally evaluated. With the goal of minimizing this burden for others, we detail our process and provide the materials and framework necessary to streamline this process for other departments aiming to evaluate workplace climate as a key first step in building a positive work environment for all employees.</p>
