Intraspecific Niche Models for Ponderosa Pine (Pinus ponderosa) Suggest Potential Variability in Population-Level Response to Climate Change
Systematic Biology, 67(6), 965–978.
Ed(s): N. Matzke
author keywords: Ecological niche modeling; Pinus ponderosa; intraspecific variation; haplotype; range shift; conservation; climate-plant relationships
MeSH headings : Climate Change; Ecosystem; Models, Biological; Phylogeny; Pinus ponderosa / genetics; Pinus ponderosa / physiology
TL;DR:
The results demonstrate the utility in modeling intraspecific response to changing climate and they inform management and conservation strategies, by identifying haplotypes and geographic areas that may be most at risk, or most secure, under projected climate change.

Effect of Groundwater Iron on Residual Chlorine in Water Treated with Sodium Dichloroisocyanurate Tablets in Rural Bangladesh
The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 98(4), 977–983.
MeSH headings : Bangladesh; Chlorine / chemistry; Groundwater / chemistry; Halogenation; Humans; Iron / analysis; Tablets; Triazines / chemistry

Fecal Indicator Bacteria along Multiple Environmental Transmission Pathways (Water, Hands, Food, Soil, Flies) and Subsequent Child Diarrhea in Rural Bangladesh
Environmental Science & Technology, 52(14), 7928–7936.
MeSH headings : Animals; Bangladesh; Child; Child, Preschool; Cross-Sectional Studies; Diarrhea; Diptera; Escherichia coli; Humans; Infant; Infant, Newborn; Soil; Water

Unsafe disposal of feces of children <3 years among households with latrine access in rural Bangladesh: Association with household characteristics, fly presence and child diarrhea
PloS One, 13(4), e0195218.
MeSH headings : Adult; Bangladesh; Child, Preschool; Cross-Sectional Studies; Factor Analysis, Statistical; Family Characteristics; Feces; Female; Humans; Infant; Male; Public Health Surveillance; Self Report; Waste Disposal Facilities
