title: Data from: Possible adverse impact of contaminants on Atlantic cod population dynamics in coastal ecosystems

description: While many in-lab ecotoxicological studies have shown the adverse impact
 of pollutants to the fitness of an individual, direct evidence from the
 field on the population dynamics of wildlife animals has been lacking.
 Here, we provide empirical support for a negative effect of pollution on
 Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) population dynamics in coastal waters of
 Norway by combining unique time series of juvenile cod abundance, body
 size, environmental concentration of toxic contaminants, and a spatially
 structured population dynamics model. The study shows that mercury
 concentration might have decreased the reproductive potential of cod in
 the region despite the general decline in the environmental concentration
 of mercury, cadmium, and hexachlorobenzene since the implementation of
 national environmental laws. However, some cod populations appeared to be
 more resistant to mercury pollution than others and the strength and shape
 of mercury effect on cod reproductive potential was fjord-specific.
 Additionally, cod growth rate changed at scales smaller than fjords with a
 gradient related to the exposure to the open ocean and offshore cod. These
 spatial differences in life history traits emphasize the importance of
 local adaptation in shaping the dynamics of local wildlife populations.
 Finally, this study highlights the possibility to mitigate pollution
 effects on natural population by reducing the overall pollution level but
 also reveals that pollution reduction alone is not enough to rebuild local
 cod populations. Cod population recovery probably requires complimentary
 efforts on fishing regulation and habitat restauration.

title: Data from: Development of sexual dimorphism in two sympatric skinks with different growth rates

description: Sexual-size dimorphism (SSD) is widespread in animals, especially in
 lizards (Reptilia: Squamata) and is driven by fecundity selection,
 male-male competition or other adaptive hypothesis. However, these
 selective pressures may vary through different life history periods, thus
 it is essential to assess the relationship between growth and SSD. In this
 study, we tracked SSD dynamics between a “fading-tail colour skink” (Blue
 tail skink whose tail is only blue during its juvenile stage: Plestiodon
 elegans) and a “non-fade colour” tail skink (retains a blue tail
 throughout life: P. quadrilineatus) under a controlled experimental
 environment. We fitted growth curves of morphological traits (Body mass,
 SVL, and TL) using three growth models (Logistic, Gompertz and von
 Bertalanffy). We found that both skinks have male-biased SSD as adults.
 Body mass has a higher goodness-of-fit (as represented by very high R2
 values) using the von Bertalanffy model than the other two models. In
 contrast, SVL and TL for both skinks had higher goodness-of-fit when using
 the Gompertz model. Two lizards displayed divergent life history tactics:
 P. elegans grows faster, matures earlier (at 65 weeks), and presents an
 allometric growth rate, whereas P. quadrilineatus grows slower, matures
 later (at 106 weeks), and presents an isometric growth rate. Our findings
 imply that species- and sex-specific trade-offs in the allocation of
 energy to growth and reproduction may cause the growth patterns to
 diverge, ultimately resulting in the dissimilar patterns of SSD.

title: Data from: The multi-dimensional nature of information drives prioritisation of private over social information in ants

description: When personally gathered and socially acquired information conflict,
 animals often prioritise private information. We propose that this is
 because private information often contains details that social information
 lacks. We test this idea in an ant model. Ants using a food source learn
 its location and quality rapidly (private information), whereas pheromone
 trails (social information) provide good directional information, but lack
 reliable information about food quality. If this lack is indeed
 responsible for the choice of memory over pheromone trails, adding
 information that better food is available should cause foragers to switch
 their priority to social information. We show it does: while ants follow
 memory rather than pheromones when they conflict, adding unambiguous
 information about a better potential food source (a 2µl droplet of good
 food) reverses this pattern, from 60% of ants following their memory to
 75% following the pheromone trail. Using fluorescence microscopy, we
 demonstrate that food (and thus information) flows from fed workers to
 outgoing foragers, explaining the frequent contacts of ants on trails.
 Ants trained to poor food that contact nestmates fed with good food are
 more likely to follow a trail than ants which received information about
 poor food. We conclude that social information may often be ignored
 because it lacks certain crucial dimensions, suggesting that information
 content is crucial for understanding how and when animals prioritise
 social and private information.

title: Wildfires during fall migration affect bird movements, avian health, and  migration timing in western North America: Insights from bird banding and feather isotopes

description: With the peak of the wildfire season in North America typically occurring during the core part of fall bird migration, migratory birds are likely to be increasingly impacted by worsening wildfire seasons during their southerly movements. In this study, we combined two approaches to assess the impact of wildfires on migratory birds captured in southern Utah. First, we used five years of bird banding data to assess how bird movement and physical condition patterns are impacted. Second, we used stable hydrogen isotopes from collected feathers to identify the geographic origin of the individuals of several migratory species in order to better understand how fires may be influencing migration. We found that when there were more wildfires active in western North America, there were more captures of birds at our banding station, likely a result of birds shifting their movements to avoid areas of fire and smoke, and that birds had worse body condition and overall health as shown from lower body masses. We also found that during periods when wildfires are especially active and severe, wildfire activity has the most significant influence on bird movements and health compared to other prominent environmental variables. Our isotopic results provide evidence that two species’ migration patterns varied across the year in both migration timing and likely summer origin, and show how fire activity could have affected the migratory window for some species. More broadly, our isotope data improves our knowledge of the likely geographic origins of migratory birds in this particular flyway, adds to the literature on feather-based hydrogen isotope analyses, provides some of the first published isotope data for two species, and streamlines a workflow that can aid future researchers working with feather hydrogen isotope data.

title: Data from: Are buffalograss (Buchloë dactyloides) cytotypes spatially and ecologically differentiated?

description: Premise of the study Although autopolyploidy is common among dominant
 Great Plains grasses, the distribution of cytotypes within a given species
 is typically poorly understood. This study aims to establish the
 geographic distribution of cytotypes within buffalograss (Buchloë
 dactyloides), and to assess whether individual cytotypes exhibit differing
 ecological tolerances. Methods A range-wide set of 578 B. dactyloides
 individuals was obtained through field collecting and sampling from
 herbarium specimens. The cytotype of each sample was estimated by
 observing allele numbers at thirteen simple sequence repeat loci, a
 strategy that was assessed by comparing estimated to known cytotype in 79
 chromosome-counted samples. Ecological differentiation between the
 dominant tetraploid and hexaploid cytotypes was assessed with analyses of
 macro-climatic variables. Key results Simple sequence repeat variation
 accurately estimated cytotype in 89% of samples from which a chromosome
 count had been obtained. Applying this approach to samples of unknown
 ploidy established that diploids and pentaploids are rare, with the common
 tetraploid and hexaploid cytotypes generally occurring in sites to the
 north/west (tetraploid) or south/east (hexaploid) portions of the species
 range. Both MANOVA and niche modeling approaches identified significant
 but subtle differences in macro-climatic conditions at the set of
 locations occupied by these two dominant cytotypes. Conclusions
 Incorporating chromosome count vouchers and cytotype-estimated herbarium
 records allowed us to perform the largest study of cytotype niche
 differentiation to date. Buffalograss cytotypes differ greatly in
 frequency, the common tetraploid and hexaploid cytotypes are non-randomly
 distributed, and these two cytotypes are subtly ecologically
 differentiated.

title: Data from: Differences in the soil microbial community and carbon use efficiency following development of Vochysia guatemalensis tree plantations in unproductive pastures in Costa Rica

description: This study shows that Vochysia guatemalensis tree plantations were
 associated with enhanced soil biotic and abiotic characteristics in
 previously cleared forests in the Northern Zone of Costa Rica, suggesting
 the possible use of this practice as a restoration strategy for local land
 owners. Soil samples from a primary forest (PF), secondary forest (SF),
 and a 13-year-old (OV) plantation of V. guatemalensis had greater relative
 abundances of DNA sequences of microbial genera critical for C-use
 efficiency (i.e., the saprobe, complex C and wood rot/lignin decomposer
 fungi, and bacterial lignin and other complex C degraders), and greater
 levels of total organic C, C-biomass, and Microbial Quotients as
 indicators of enhanced C-use efficiency, than found in soils of adjacent
 5-year-old (NV) V. guatemalensis plantations and abandoned non-productive
 pasture/grasslands (GR). The major research conclusions were that: 1)
 conversion of forested land into abandoned pasture/grasslands decreased
 the C-use efficiency in the soils and the microbial groups associated with
 C-use efficiency; 2) soils in plantations of V. guatemalensis were
 associated with increased abundances of the DNA of these same microbial
 groups and enhanced C-use efficiency; 3) DNA-based taxonomic analysis of
 microbes and analysis of the Microbial Quotient values can be used to
 monitor soil ecosystems for assessment of the efficacy of restoration
 activities. Thus, planting V. guatemalensis on damaged lands in the
 Maquenque National Wildlife Refuge (MNWR) should be encouraged to provide
 a sustainable forestry crop that can be harvested rotationally, while
 improving soil ecosystem health and reducing the pressure to harvest other
 forest sites.

title: Data from: Escalation and morphological constraints of antagonistic armaments in water striders

description: Sexual conflict may result in the escalating coevolution of sexually
 antagonistic traits. However, our understanding of the evolutionary
 dynamics of antagonistic traits and their role in association with
 sex-specific escalation remains limited. Here we study sexually
 antagonistic coevolution in a genus of water striders called Rhagovelia.
 We identified a set of male grasping traits and female anti-grasping
 traits used during pre-mating struggles and show that natural variation of
 these traits is associated with variation in mating performance in the
 direction expected for antagonistic coevolution. Phylogenetic mapping
 detected signal of escalation of these sexually antagonistic traits
 suggesting an ongoing arms race. Moreover, their escalation appears to be
 influenced by a trade-off with dispersal through flight in both sexes.
 Altogether our results highlight how sexual interactions and natural
 selection may have shaped sex-specific antagonistic trait coevolution.

title: Data from: Niche differentiation in rainforest ant communities across three continents

description: A central prediction of niche theory is that biotic communities are
 structured by niche differentiation arising from competition. To date,
 there have been numerous studies of niche differentiation in local ant
 communities, but, little attention has been given to the macroecology of
 niche differentiation, including the extent to which particular biomes
 show distinctive patterns of niche structure across their global ranges.
 We investigated patterns of niche differentiation and competition in ant
 communities in tropical rainforests, using different baits reflecting the
 natural food spectrum. We examined the extent of temporal and dietary
 niche differentiation and spatial segregation of ant communities at five
 rainforest sites in the neotropics, paleotropics, and tropical Australia.
 Despite high niche overlap, we found significant dietary and temporal
 niche differentiation in every site. However, there was no spatial
 segregation among foraging ants at the community level, despite strong
 competition for preferred food resources. Although sucrose, melezitose,
 and dead insects attracted most ants, some species preferentially foraged
 on seeds, living insects or bird feces. Moreover, most sites harboured
 more diurnal than nocturnal species. Overall niche differentiation was
 strongest in the least diverse site, possibly due to its lower number of
 rare species. Both temporal and dietary differentiation thus had strong
 effects on the ant assemblages, but their relative importance varied
 markedly among sites. Our analyses show that patterns of niche
 differentiation in ant communities are highly idiosyncratic even within a
 biome, such that a mechanistic understanding of the drivers of niche
 structure in ant communities remains elusive.

title: Data from: Noninvasive neuroimaging enhances continuous neural tracking for robotic device control

description: Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) using signals acquired with intracortical
 implants have achieved successful high-dimensional robotic device control
 useful for completing daily tasks. However, the substantial amount of
 medical and surgical expertise required to correctly implant and operate
 these systems greatly limits their use beyond a few clinical cases. A
 noninvasive counterpart requiring less intervention that can provide
 high-quality control would profoundly improve the integration of BCIs into
 the clinical and home setting. Here, we present and validate a noninvasive
 framework using electroencephalography (EEG) to achieve the neural control
 of a robotic device for continuous random target tracking. This framework
 addresses and improves upon both the “brain” and “computer” components by
 increasing, respectively, user engagement through a continuous pursuit
 task and associated training paradigm and the spatial resolution of
 noninvasive neural data through EEG source imaging. In all, our unique
 framework enhanced BCI learning by nearly 60% for traditional center-out
 tasks and by more than 500% in the more realistic continuous pursuit task.
 We further demonstrated an additional enhancement in BCI control of almost
 10% by using online noninvasive neuroimaging. Last, this framework was
 deployed in a physical task, demonstrating a near-seamless transition from
 the control of an unconstrained virtual cursor to the real-time control of
 a robotic arm. Such combined advances in the quality of neural decoding
 and the practical utility of noninvasive robotic arm control will have
 major implications for the eventual development and implementation of
 neurorobotics by means of noninvasive BCI.
