Circulating nutrients and hematological parameters in managed African elephants (Loxodonta Africana) over a 1-year period
ZOO BIOLOGY, 39(5), 345–354.
author keywords: blood; nutrition; pachyderm; zoo
MeSH headings : Animal Nutritional Physiological Phenomena; Animals; Animals, Zoo; Aspartate Aminotransferases / blood; Bilirubin / blood; Biomarkers / blood; Blood Glucose; Blood Proteins; Blood Urea Nitrogen; Creatine Kinase / blood; Creatinine / blood; Diet / veterinary; Electrolytes / blood; Elephants / physiology; Female; Male; Minerals / chemistry; Nutritional Status; Seasons; Serum Albumin; Sex Factors

Global forensic geolocation with deep neural networks
JOURNAL OF THE ROYAL STATISTICAL SOCIETY SERIES C-APPLIED STATISTICS, 69(4), 909–929.
author keywords: Citizen science; Machine learning; Microbiome; Non-homogeneous Poisson process; Spatial point pattern
TL;DR:
The DeepSpace algorithm makes remarkably good point predictions; for example, when applied to the microbiomes of over 1300 dust samples collected across continental USA, more than half of geolocated predictions produced by this model fall less than 100 km from their true origin, which is a 60% reduction in error from competing geolocation methods.

Expanded coverage of non-targeted LC-HRMS using atmospheric pressure chemical ionization: a case study with ENTACT mixtures
ANALYTICAL AND BIOANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY, 412(20), 4931–4939.
author keywords: Atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI); Non-targeted analysis (NTA); High-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS); Electrospray ionization (ESI); EPA's Non-Targeted Analysis Collaborative Trial (ENTACT)
TL;DR:
Examination of physicochemical parameters for ENTACT chemicals suggests that those with higher aqueous solubility preferentially ionized by ESI− suggest both APCI and ESI should be considered for broader coverage in future NTA research.
