title: Data from: Courtship behaviour, nesting microhabitat and assortative mating in sympatric stickleback species-pairs

description: The maintenance of reproductive isolation in the face of gene-flow is a
 particularly contentious topic, but differences in reproductive behaviour
 may provide the key to explaining this phenomenon. However, we do not yet
 fully understand how behaviour contributes to maintaining species
 boundaries. How important are behavioural differences during reproduction?
 To what extent does assortative mating maintain reproductive isolation in
 recently diverged populations and how important are ‘magic traits’?
 Assortative mating can arise as a by-product of accumulated differences
 between divergent populations as well as an adaptive response to contact
 between those populations, but this is often overlooked. Here we address
 these questions using recently described species-pairs of three-spined
 stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus), from two separate locations and a
 phenotypically intermediate allopatric population on the island of North
 Uist, Scottish Western Isles. We identified stark differences in the
 preferred nesting substrate, and courtship behaviour of species-pair
 males. We showed that all males selectively court females of their own
 ecotype and all females prefer males of the same ecotype, regardless of
 whether they are from species-pairs or allopatric populations. We also
 showed that mate choice does not appear to be driven by body-size
 differences (a potential ‘magic trait’). By explicitly comparing the
 strength of these mating preferences between species-pairs and
 single-ecotype locations we were able to show that present levels of
 assortative mating due to direct mate choice are likely a by-product of
 other adaptations between ecotypes, and not subject to obvious selection
 in species-pairs. Our results suggest that ecological divergence in mating
 characteristics, particularly nesting microhabitat may be more important
 than direct mate choice in maintaining reproductive isolation in
 stickleback species-pairs.

title: Genomic data from the Brazilian sibilator frog reveals contrasting Pleistocene dynamics and regionalism in two South American dry biomes

description: Aim: Knowledge about the Neotropical dry formations, particularly
 the Caatinga, remains rudimentary compared to other biotas in the region.
 Here we address several biogeographical hypotheses by combining intense
 geographic and genomic sampling obtained for the Brazilian sibilator frog.
 We specifically test predictions related to the putative roles of past
 climate shifts (Pleistocene and Holocene) and local geographic barriers
 (past and current courses of the São Francisco river, SFR) in causing
 population differentiation in this species. Location: Caatinga and eastern
 Cerrado. Taxon: Brazilian sibilator frog Leptodactylus troglodytes.
 Methods: We sequenced up to ~15,000 single nucleotide polymorphisms for
 159 samples from 61 locations. We inferred genetic structure using spatial
 clustering and examined population sizes through time. We estimated the
 relationship among populations using phylogenetic reconstruction,
 estimated historical distributions with ecological niche modelling, and
 inferred demographic history under isolation-with-migration models.
 Results: Genetic diversity in L. troglodytes corresponds to biome
 boundaries, with one population in the Cerrado and two populations in the
 Caatinga, separated by the SFR. Demographic model selection indicates the
 Caatinga populations expanded since the end of the Pleistocene while the
 Cerrado population declined. Within the Caatinga, population expansion
 began earlier and was more extreme in the north. A continuous stability
 area maintained the two Caatinga populations, which share a common origin
 and began diverging in the mid-Pleistocene, first with symmetric gene flow
 and later under pronounced migration from the north. Main
 Conclusions: We could not reject a role of past climate change in
 causing diversification of relictual populations in the Cerrado, but we
 found no evidence of multiple refuges or long-term isolation within the
 Caatinga. Instead, diversification in this biome appears to be caused by
 the SFR acting as a "soft barrier" that constrains migration
 over an extended period of time.

title: Causes and consequences of telomere lengthening in a wild vertebrate population

description: Telomeres have been advocated to be important markers of biological age in
 evolutionary and ecological studies. Telomeres usually shorten with age,
 and shortening is frequently associated with environmental stressors and
 increased subsequent mortality. Telomere lengthening – an apparent
 increase in telomere length between repeated samples from the same
 individual – also occurs. However, the exact circumstances, and
 consequences, of telomere lengthening are poorly understood. Using
 longitudinal data from the Seychelles warbler (Acrocephalus sechellensis),
 we tested whether telomere lengthening – which occurs in adults of this
 species – is associated with specific stressors (reproductive effort, food
 availability, malarial infection and cooperative breeding) and predicts
 subsequent survival. In females, telomere shortening was observed under
 greater stress (i.e. low food availability, malaria infection), while
 telomere lengthening was observed in females experiencing lower stress
 (i.e. high food availability, assisted by helpers, without malaria). The
 telomere dynamics of males were not associated with the key stressors
 tested. These results indicate that, at least for females, telomere
 lengthening occurs in circumstances more conducive to self-maintenance.
 Importantly, both females and males with lengthened telomeres had improved
 subsequent survival relative to individuals that displayed unchanged, or
 shortened, telomeres – indicating that telomere lengthening is associated
 with individual fitness. These results demonstrate that telomere dynamics
 are bidirectionally responsive to the level of stress that an individual
 faces, but may poorly reflect the accumulation of stress over the
 lifetime. This study challenges how we think of telomeres as a marker of
 biological age.

title: Globally, plant-soil feedbacks are weak predictors of plant abundance

description: Plant-soil feedbacks (PSFs) have been shown to strongly affect plant
 performance under controlled conditions, and PSFs are thought to have far
 reaching consequences for plant population dynamics and the structuring of
 plant communities. However, thus far the relationship between PSF and
 plant species abundance in the field is not consistent. Here, we
 synthesize PSF experiments from tropical forests to semiarid grasslands,
 and test for a positive relationship between plant abundance in the field
 and PSFs estimated from controlled bioassays. We meta-analyzed results
 from 22 PSF experiments and found an overall positive correlation (0.12 ≤
 ▁(r ̅ ) ≤ 0.32) between plant abundance in the field and PSFs across plant
 functional types (herbaceous and woody plants) but also variation by plant
 functional type. Thus, our analysis provides quantitative support that
 plant abundance has a general albeit weak positive relationship with PSFs
 across ecosystems. Overall, our results suggest that harmful soil biota
 tend to accumulate around and disproportionately impact species that are
 rare. However, data for the herbaceous species, which are most common in
 the literature, had no significant abundance-PSFs relationship. Therefore,
 we conclude that further work is needed within and across biomes,
 succession stages and plant types, both under controlled and field
 conditions, while separating PSF effects from other drivers (e.g.
 herbivory, competition, disturbance) of plant abundance to tease apart the
 role of soil biota in causing patterns of plant rarity versus commonness.

title: Behavioral and ephys data of research paper: Microsecond interaural time difference discrimination restored by cochlear implants after neonatal deafness

description: The uploaded raw behavioral and electrophysiological data form the basis
 for our research study on "Microsecond Interaural Time Difference
 Discrimination Restored by Cochlear Implants After Neonatal
 Deafness". Based on this data we were able to show that neonatally
 deafened (ND) rats provided with precisely synchronized cochlear implant
 stimulation in adulthood can be trained to lateralize interaural time
 differences (ITDs) with essentially normal behavioral thresholds near 50
 μs. Furthermore, comparable ND rats show high physiological sensitivity to
 ITDs immediately after binaural implantation in adulthood. In addition to
 the raw data, we provided scripts to analyze the psychometric functions
 for the ITD sensitivity of our acoustically or electrically stimulated
 rats (see Fig. 1 of the manuscript). To reproduce the analysis of the
 electrophysiological data (see Figs. 3+4 of the manuscript), various
 analysis scripts were added in addition to the raw data. For a detailed
 description of the data analysis of these data, see section "Data
 analysis" of the Methods section of our manuscript.

title: Data from: Identifying 'useful' fitness models: balancing the benefits of added complexity with realistic data requirements in models of individual plant fitness

description: Direct species interactions are commonly included in individual fitness
 models used for coexistence and local-diversity modeling. Though widely
 considered important for such models, direct interactions alone are often
 insufficient for accurately predicting fitness, coexistence or diversity
 outcomes. Incorporating higher-order interactions (HOIs) can lead to more
 accurate individual fitness models, but also adds many model terms, which
 can quickly result in model over-fitting. We explore approaches for
 balancing the trade-off between tractability and model accuracy that
 occurs when HOIs are added to individual fitness models. To do this, we
 compare models parameterized with data from annual plant communities in
 Australia and Spain, varying in the extent of information included about
 the focal and neighbor species. The best performing models for both
 datasets were those that grouped neighbors based on origin status and life
 form, a grouping approach that reduced the number of model parameters
 substantially while retaining important ecological information about
 direct interactions and HOIs. Results suggest that specific focal- or
 neighbor-species identity is not necessary for building well-performing
 fitness models that include HOIs. In fact, grouping neighbors by even
 basic functional information seems sufficient to maximize model accuracy,
 an important outcome for the practical use of HOI-inclusive fitness
 models.

title: The role of phylogenetic scale in Darwin’s naturalization conundrum in the critically imperiled pine rockland ecosystem

description: Aim: We expand on community phylogenetic approaches to Darwin’s
 Naturalization Conundrum by considering phylogenetic scale, comprised of
 phylogenetic grain and extent. We assess relatedness
 between invasive, non-native,
 and native plant species at multiple depths in the
 phylogeny (i.e., phylogenetic grain) and across multiple clades (i.e.,
 phylogenetic extents) at regional and local spatial scales in the
 highly-fragmented, critically imperiled pine rockland ecosystem. 
 Location: Miami-Dade County, Florida, USA Methods: We used two metrics
 differing in phylogenetic grain to determine
 if invasive or non-native species were
 more closely related to native species in the regional
 pool and at 33 habitat fragments. At both spatial scales, we altered
 phylogenetic extent from all vascular plants to four smaller phylogenetic
 domains (Monilophyte, Gymnosperm, Monocotyledon, and Dicotyledon) and
 assessed whether the interpretation of relatedness changed. 
 Results: For the regional pool and at a broader phylogenetic
 grain, non-native species were more closely related to
 the native community
 than invasive species were for all phylogenetic extents
 (i.e., support for Darwin’s Naturalization Hypothesis, DNH), and at a
 finer phylogenetic grain for only two phylogenetic extents. At the local
 scale, there was limited support for DNH across all phylogenetic extents.
 In Monocotyledons, support for DNH was more prevalent at the fine
 phylogenetic grain while Dicotyledons showed support for DNH at the broad
 phylogenetic grain. Main conclusions: In the pine rockland flora, we found
 either support for DNH or no difference in relatedness
 between non-native-to-native and invasive-to-native species. However, patterns of relatedness varied across spatial and phylogenetic grain and, critically, this variability is highly dependent on the phylogenetic extent considered. By explicitly assessing the interactions between spatial scale and phylogenetic scale, we show that support for DNH was context dependent, and findings at smaller phylogenetic extents rarely agreed with findings at the larger phylogenic extent.

title: Riparian forests can mitigate warming and ecological degradation of agricultural headwater streams

description: 1. Riparian forests are commonly advocated as a key management option to
 mitigate the effects of agriculture on headwater stream biodiversity and
 ecosystem functions. However, the benefits of riparian forests might be
 reduced by uninterrupted catchment-scale pollution. 2.We studied the
 effects of riparian land use on multiple ecological endpoints in headwater
 streams in an agricultural landscape. We studied stream habitat
 characteristics, water temperature and algal accrual, and macrophyte,
 benthic macroinvertebrate and fish communities in 11 paired forested and
 open agricultural headwater stream reaches that differed in their extent
 of riparian forest cover but had similar water quality. 3.
 Hydromorphological habitat quality was higher in forested reaches than in
 open reaches. Riparian forest had a strong effect on the summer water
 temperature regime, with maximum and mean water temperatures and
 temperature variation in forested reaches substantially lower than in open
 reaches. 4. Macrophyte communities differed between forested and open
 reaches. The mean abundance of bryophytes was higher in forested reaches
 but the difference to open reaches was only marginally significant,
 whereas graminoids were significantly more abundant in open reaches.
 Within-stream dissimilarity of benthic macroinvertebrate community
 structure was significantly related to the difference in riparian land use
 between reach pairs. The relative DNA sequence abundance of
 pollution-sensitive EPT (Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera, Trichoptera) species
 tended to be higher in forested reaches than in open reaches. Finally,
 fish densities were not significantly different between forested and open
 reaches, although densities were higher in forested reaches. 5. This
 unequivocal evidence for the ecological benefits of forested riparian
 reaches in agricultural headwater streams suggests that riparian forest
 can partly mitigate the adverse impacts of agricultural diffuse pollution
 on biota. The strong effect of forests on stream water temperature suggest
 that riparian forest could also mitigate harmful effects on headwater
 stream biodiversity and ecosystem functions of the predicted more frequent
 high summer temperatures.

title: Acceleration time histories and road elevation profiles

description: Low-cost smartphone-based sensing approaches have recently emerged as an
 alternative to the traditional and oftentimes expensive or laborious road
 surface monitoring technologies. We develop an approach, resting
 on a rigorously derived mechanistic and stochastic model in spectral
 domain, that relates the vertical acceleration signal measured by a
 smartphone positioned in a moving car to road surface roughness
 metrics. We illustrate that the inferred roughness metrics from
 the acceleration data sets, acquired with different smartphones and
 vehicle types, are in good agreement with the ones obtained from the
 expensive laser measurements. The data set we used for our
 analysis is hence comprised of (I) acceleration signals recorded by
 smartphones placed at different locations of the vehicle, and (II)
 laser-measured road longitudinal profiles. The validation
 analysis is performed for two test tracks:  (1) 13.8 km
 of a thoroughfare with a dominating inner-city component with
 poor ride quality, and (2) 11.6 km of a highway with good ride quality.
 The coordinates (latitude and longitude) of the two test tracks are also
 available in the provided data set.

title: Conspicuous animal signals avoid the cost of predation by being intermittent or novel: confirmation in the wild using hundreds of robotic prey

description: Social animals are expected to face a trade-off between producing a signal
 that is detectible by mates and rivals, but not obvious to predators. This
 trade-off is fundamental for understanding the design of many animal sig-
 nals, and is often the lens through which the evolution of alternative
 communication strategies is viewed. We have a reasonable working knowl-
 edge of how conspecifics detect signals under different conditions, but
 how predators exploit conspicuous communication of prey is complex and
 hard to predict. We quantified predation on 1566 robotic lizard prey that
 per- formed a conspicuous visual display, possessed a conspicuous ornament
 or remained cryptic. Attacks by free-ranging predators were consistent
 across two contrasting ecosystems and showed robotic prey that performed a
 conspicuous display were equally likely to be attacked as those that
 remained cryptic. Furthermore, predators avoided attacking robotic prey
 with a fixed, highly visible ornament that was novel at both locations.
 These data show that it is prey familiarity—not conspicuousness—that
 determine predation risk. These findings replicated across different
 preda- tor–prey communities not only reveal how conspicuous signals might
 evolve in high predation environments, but could help resolve the paradox
 of aposematism and why some exotic species avoid predation when invad- ing
 new areas.
description: Robot prey mimics and controls were deployed in the field at two
 locations. Data represent whether or not a prey mimic or control had been
 attacked (based on impressions left in the plasticine) after 3 or 5
 days.

title: Why cannot long-term cascade be predicted? Exploring temporal dynamics in information diffusion processes

description: Predicting information cascade plays a crucial role in various
 applications such as advertising campaigns, emergency management, and
 infodemic controlling. However, predicting the scale of an information
 cascade in a long-term could be difficult. In this study, we take Weibo, a
 Twitter-like online social platform, as an example, exhaustively extract
 predictive features from the data, and use a conventional machine learning
 algorithm to predict the information cascade scales. Specifically, we
 compare the predictive power (and the loss of it) of different categories
 of features in short-term and long-term prediction tasks. Among the
 features that describe the follower-followee network, retweet network,
 tweet content, and early diffusion dynamics, we find that early diffusion
 dynamics are the most predictive ones in short-term prediction tasks but
 lose most of their predictive power in long-term tasks. In-depth analyses
 reveal two possible causes of such failure: the bursty nature of
 information diffusion and feature temporal drift over time. Our findings
 further enhance the comprehension to information diffusion process and may
 assist in the control of such process.
