Engaging Latino Farmworkers in the Development of Symbols to Improve Pesticide Safety and Health Education and Risk Communication
JOURNAL OF IMMIGRANT AND MINORITY HEALTH, 15(5), 975–981.
author keywords: Pesticides; Health education; Farmworkers; Toxicology
MeSH headings : Adult; Agriculture; Central America / ethnology; Communication; Female; Focus Groups; Health Education; Humans; Iowa; Male; Mexico / ethnology; North Carolina; Occupational Exposure / prevention & control; Occupational Health; Pesticides / poisoning; Product Labeling; Qualitative Research; Risk Management / methods
TL;DR:
Visual materials for a pesticide toxicology safety and health curriculum were constructed by engaging farmworkers in various stages of symbol development, supporting the importance of vivid and realistic symbols, the effectiveness of a traffic-light symbol in communicating technical information to farmworkers, and the need to engage low-literacy end-users in the production of educational materials.

Diets of sympatric red wolves and coyotes in northeastern North Carolina
JOURNAL OF MAMMALOGY, 94(5), 1141–1148.
author keywords: dietary overlap; DNA genotyping; Canis latrans; Canis rufus; coyote; food habits; red wolf; scat
TL;DR:
Diets of red wolves and coyotes did not differ, but the proportion of small rodents in the composite scats of both canids was greater in the spring than in the summer, suggesting that these 2 species may be affecting prey populations similarly.

The effect of illumination and time of day on movements of bobcats (Lynx rufus)
PLoS One, 8(7).
MeSH headings : Animals; Female; Lighting; Lynx / physiology; Male; Moon; Movement / physiology; North Carolina; Time Factors; Wetlands
TL;DR:
Bobcats had highest movement rates during daytime when nighttime illumination was low (new moon) and higher movement rates During nighttime when lunar illumination was high (full moon), consistent with prey availability being affected by light level and by limited vision by bobcats during darkness.

Home Life: Factors Structuring the Bacterial Diversity Found within and between Homes
PLOS ONE, 8(5).
Contributors: R. Dunn n , N. Fierer *, J. Henley *, J. Leff * & H. Menninger n
MeSH headings : Bacteria / classification; Bacteria / genetics; Bacteria / isolation & purification; Biodiversity; Genes, Bacterial; High-Throughput Nucleotide Sequencing; North Carolina; Polymerase Chain Reaction; RNA, Transfer / genetics; Residence Characteristics
TL;DR:
The presence of dogs had a significant effect on bacterial community composition in multiple locations within homes as the homes occupied by dogs harbored more diverse communities and higher relative abundances of dog-associated bacterial taxa.

Genetic diversity affects colony survivorship in commercial honey bee colonies
NATURWISSENSCHAFTEN, 100(8), 723–728.
author keywords: Genetic diversity; Social insects; Genotyping; Supersedure; Colony mortality
MeSH headings : Analysis of Variance; Animals; Bees / genetics; Female; Genetic Variation; Male; Microsatellite Repeats / genetics; Sexual Behavior, Animal / physiology; Survival Analysis
TL;DR:
The stark contrast in colony survival based on increased genetic diversity suggests that there are important tangible benefits of increased queen mating number in managed honey bees, although the exact mechanism(s) that govern these benefits have not been fully elucidated.

Validation of a Predictive Model for Fish Tissue Mercury Concentrations
TRANSACTIONS OF THE AMERICAN FISHERIES SOCIETY, 142(2), 380–387.
TL;DR:
Evaluating the performance of a predictive model created to reconcile the extensive variability in fish tissue mercury (Hg) in North Carolina and Virginia by using two independently collected data sets describing fish tissue Hg using data collected from 1990 to 2006 found the model generally underestimated observed tissue HG.

Relative contribution of spring- and summer-spawned bluefish cohorts to the adult population: effects of size-selective winter mortality, overwinter growth, and sampling bias
CANADIAN JOURNAL OF FISHERIES AND AQUATIC SCIENCES, 70(2), 233–244.
TL;DR:
Examination of length distributions of juvenile bluefish from before and after winter found that the mean length of the summer cohort increased during winter, and changes in mean length were due to size-selective mortality for one year class and growth for the other.
