Increased Temporal Overlap in Diel Activity Patterns Potentially Intensifies Interspecific Competition Among Sympatric Large Carnivores in the Sanjiangyuan Region of China by Dong Wang, Quanbang Li, Jingyu Gao, Xu Su, Xinming Lian

“…In this study, spanning a survey period from June 2014 to April 2024, we employed infrared camera technology to collect a total of 3312, 352, 240, and 79 independently validated photographs of snow leopards (<i>Panthera uncia</i> Schreber, 1775), wolves (<i>Canis lupus</i> Linnaeus, 1758), brown bears (<i>Ursus arctos</i> Linnaeus, 1758), and Eurasian lynx (<i>Lynx lynx</i> Linnaeus, 1758), respectively, across six distinct regions in the Sanjiangyuan Region (SR) and during different monitoring time periods. We utilized kernel density estimation and the coefficient of overlaps to assess diel activity pattern overlap and competitive intensities through pairwise comparisons among these four large carnivores. …”

Distinct effects of global signal regression on brain activity during propofol and sevoflurane anesthesia by Fa Lu, Fa Lu, Lunxu Li, Juan Wang, Juan Wang, Xuanling Chen, Ho-Ching Yang, Xiaoli Li, Lan Yao, Zhenhu Liang, Zhenhu Liang

“…IntroductionGlobal signal regression (GSR) is widely used in functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) analysis, yet its effects on anesthetic-related brain activity are not well understood.MethodsUsing fMRI data from patients under general anesthesia, we analyzed temporal variability indices, amplitude of low-frequency fluctuations, functional connectivity, and graph theoretical measures with and without GSR.ResultsHere we show that GSR differentially affects brain activity patterns during propofol- and sevoflurane-induced unconsciousness. …”

Climate, biogeography, and human resilience in the demographic history of the Canary Islands during the Amazigh period by Jonathan Santana, Miguel del Pino Curbelo, Eneko Iriarte, Jacob Morales, José L. Caro, Rosa Fregel, Jenny Hagenblad, Rebeca García González, Amelia Rodríguez Rodríguez

“…Using radiocarbon dating as a proxy for population size, this research suggests potential links between demographic trends and environmental factors, highlighting how climatic phases influence agricultural productivity and settlement patterns. Favorable conditions during the Roman Warm Period (RWP) facilitated population expansion, whereas climatic stress during positive phases of the North Atlantic oscillation (NAO) (700–800 cal CE) led to significant demographic declines, particularly on smaller and more arid islands. …”
