Homogenizing an urban habitat mosaic: arthropod diversity declines in New York City parks after Super Storm Sandy
ECOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS, 28(1), 225–236.
author keywords: biotic homogenization; disturbance adapted; diversity; extreme weather; hurricane; New York City; Super Storm Sandy; tipping point; urban ecology
MeSH headings : Animals; Arthropods; Biodiversity; Cyclonic Storms; New York City; Parks, Recreational; Stress, Physiological; Urbanization
TL;DR:
The results suggest that the species that survive in high stress environments are likely to be the ones that thrive in response to acute disturbance, which may lead to diversity loss in cities, potentially leading entire urban landscapes to mirror the reduced diversity of street medians.

Overcoming urban stream syndrome: Trophic flexibility confers resilience in a Hawaiian stream fish
FRESHWATER BIOLOGY, 63(5), 492–502.
author keywords: amphidromy; aquatic invasive species; goby; omnivory; urbanisation
TL;DR:
Flexibility in diet, life history and habitat use of this native goby appear to buffer it against the effects of urbanisation compared to most other amphidromous fishes in Hawaiian streams, indicating that dietary flexibility buffers this species against environmental degradation.

Using sequence mining to reveal the efficiency in scientific reasoning during STEM learning with a game-based learning environment
LEARNING AND INSTRUCTION, 54, 93–103.
author keywords: Metacognition; Self-regulated learning; Scientific reasoning; Game-based learning; Sequence mining; Process data; Log files
TL;DR:
Results revealed that participants who were more efficient at solving the mystery tested significantly fewer partially-relevant and irrelevant items than less efficient participants and have implications for designing adaptive GBLEs that scaffold participants based on in-game behaviors.

TL;DR:
This study reveals that managed clearings are the most common land cover type in these cities, covering 28% of the total sampled land area, 6.2% higher than the total area of impervious surfaces.

BIOMETRIKA, 105(1), 165–184.
author keywords: Electroencephalography; Gaussian process; Posterior consistency; Spatial variable selection
TL;DR:
A new class of Bayesian nonparametric models are proposed and an efficient posterior computational algorithm is developed that provides large prior support over the class of piecewise‐smooth, sparse, and continuous spatially varying regression coefficient functions.

Relationships between Characteristics of Urban Green Land Cover and Mental Health in US Metropolitan Areas
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH, 15(2).
Contributors: W. Tsai n, M. McHale *, V. Jennings *, O. Marquet n, J. Hipp n, Y. Leung n , M. Floyd n
author keywords: green land cover; urban forests; urbanization; landscape
MeSH headings : Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System; Cross-Sectional Studies; Environment; Health Status; Humans; Logistic Models; Mental Disorders / epidemiology; Mental Disorders / etiology; Mental Health; Risk Factors; United States / epidemiology; Urbanization
TL;DR:
Findings suggest different types of landscape characteristics may have different roles in improving mental health, and individual measures of landscape patterns showed stronger associations with mental health than percent total cover alone.

Patterns and drivers of fish extirpations in rivers of the American Southwest and Southeast
GLOBAL CHANGE BIOLOGY, 24(3), 1175–1185.
author keywords: biodiversity loss; dams; flow regime; global change; imperiled species
MeSH headings : Animals; Biodiversity; Climate; Extinction, Biological; Fishes / classification; Fishes / physiology; Power Plants; Rivers; Southeastern United States; Southwestern United States
TL;DR:
Dams are an overriding driver of native fish species losses, irrespective of basin-wide differences in native or non-native species richness, and very high extirpation risks in the Southeast are due to interactions between high dam density and species restricted ranges.

Contributors: P. Glombowsky*, A. Silva *, N. Soldá*, G. Galli *, A. Biazus*, G. Campigotto*, N. Bottari*, R. Sousa *
author keywords: Dairy calves; Mineral supplementation; Health; Bacterial infection; Pathogenesis
MeSH headings : Animals; Animals, Newborn / immunology; Antioxidants / pharmacology; Bacterial Infections / diet therapy; Bacterial Infections / immunology; Bacterial Infections / prevention & control; Blood Chemical Analysis; Brazil; Catalase / blood; Cattle; Cattle Diseases / diet therapy; Cattle Diseases / immunology; Cattle Diseases / microbiology; Cattle Diseases / prevention & control; Copper; Diarrhea / diet therapy; Diarrhea / microbiology; Diarrhea / prevention & control; Diarrhea / veterinary; Diet / veterinary; Dietary Supplements; Feces / microbiology; Glutathione Peroxidase / blood; Injections, Intramuscular / veterinary; Magnesium; Minerals / therapeutic use; Potassium; Selenium; Superoxide Dismutase / blood

Insecticide Resistance Signals Negative Consequences of Widespread Neonicotinoid Use on Multiple Field Crops in the U.S. Cotton Belt
Environmental Science & Technology, 52(4), 2314–2322.
MeSH headings : Animals; Insecticide Resistance; Insecticides; Neonicotinoids; Southeastern United States; Thysanoptera
TL;DR:
The spatiotemporal abundance of cotton and soybean production is linked to neonicotinoid resistance in F. fusca that is leading to a dramatic increase in insecticide use in cotton, demonstrating that cross-crop resistance selection has important effects on pests and, in turn, drives pesticide use and increases environmental impacts associated with their use.
