title: Dataset for "Using Mixed-clay Sediment Gravity Flow Rheology as an Indicator for Flow Velocity and Runout Distance"

description: It is important to determine whether the dynamics of mixed-clay sediment gravity flows (SGFs) can be predicted from their dominant clay type, because natural SGF deposits can contain mixtures of clay minerals of different cohesive strength, and latitudinal zonation in clay mineral production may influence depositional patterns in mud-rich submarine fans. The present lock-exchange experiments produced high-density SGFs carrying different proportions of strongly cohesive bentonite clay and weakly cohesive kaolinite clay with a fixed 20% volumetric concentration. Head velocity and runout distance of the flows decreased, and starting suspension yield stress increased, as the bentonite fraction increased beyond 20%. However, for bentonite fractions ≤20%, the initial suspensions had lower yield stresses and the flows were more mobile than the pure kaolinite flow, implying that small bentonite fractions reduce the cohesive strength of the suspensions. Predictive equations for mixed-clay suspension yield stress, and head velocity and runout distance of mixed-clay flows, based on yield stresses of pure-clay constituents, indicate minimal interaction between the constituents for bentonite fractions ≤20% and increasingly nonlinear interactions for bentonite fractions >20%. These results suggest natural SGF dynamics and deposits may be sensitive to the most cohesive clay rather than the dominant clay.

This dataset contains the head velocity and deposit profiles of lock-exchange experimental sediment gravity flows (SGFs). Deposit profiles are only included for flows that exhibited a measurable runout distance. Additionally, the dataset includes full results from oscillatory, strain-controlled, and shear-controlled rheological tests, from which suspension yield stress and complex shear modulus values can be derived. All experimental flows and suspensions were prepared with a fixed volume concentration of 20% and are labeled according to their kaolinite and bentonite content. The data are provided in a Microsoft Excel file. A full description of the experimental methods used to generate the data is available in the accompanying paper.

title: Data from: Synchronised nesting aggregations are associated with enhanced capacity for extended embryonic arrest in olive ridley sea turtles

description: Sea turtle species in the genus Lepidochelys exhibit an unusual
 behavioural polymorphism, nesting in both aggregations and solitarily.
 Aggregated nesting events, termed ‘arribadas’, involve hundreds of
 thousands of females congregating at a single nesting beach over a few
 days to oviposit their eggs. Aggregate and solitary nesting behaviours are
 associated with distinct inter-nesting intervals, three and four weeks for
 non-arribada and arribada nesters respectively. Consequently, embryos are
 maintained in pre-ovipositional embryonic arrest in the hypoxic oviduct
 for different lengths of time depending on the mother’s reproductive
 behaviour. However, sea turtle embryos are limited in their capacity to
 remain in arrest and will subsequently die if held in hypoxia too long.
 Here, we tested whether embryos oviposited during arribada or non-arribada
 nesting differ in their capacity to be maintained in pre-ovipositional
 arrest. Olive ridley turtle (Lepidochelys olivacea) eggs from eight
 clutches (four from each nesting tactic) were divided among seven
 treatments after oviposition; normoxia (control; 21% O2), or hypoxia (1%
 O2) for 3, 3.5, 4, 8, 15 or 30 days, before being returned to normoxia.
 Arribada eggs were capable of extending pre-ovipositional arrest for
 longer, with some eggs from the 8- and 15-day hypoxia treatment still
 hatching while no non-arribada eggs hatched after more than four days in
 hypoxia. This difference in embryonic capacity to survive extended periods
 of arrest may be an important mechanism facilitating arribada behaviour by
 allowing longer inter-nesting intervals. Our finding provides an
 intriguing insight into the physiological mechanisms that are integral to
 this unique mass-nesting behaviour.

title: Data from: When resistance is futile, tolerate instead: silicon promotes plant compensatory growth when attacked by above- and belowground herbivores

description: Plants have evolved numerous herbivore defences which are resistance- or
 tolerance-based. Resistance involves physical and chemical traits that
 deter and/or harm herbivores whereas tolerance minimises fitness costs of
 herbivory, often via compensatory growth. The Poaceae frequently
 accumulate large amounts of silicon (Si) which can be used for herbivore
 resistance, including biomechanical and (indirectly) biochemical defences.
 To date, it is unclear whether Si improves tolerance of herbivory. Here we
 report how Si enabled a cereal (Triticum aestivum) to tolerate damage
 inflicted by above- and belowground herbivores. Leaf herbivory increased
 Si concentrations in the leaves by &gt;50% relative to herbivore-free
 plants, indicating it was an inducible defensive response. In plants
 without Si supplementation, leaf herbivory reduced shoot biomass by 52%
 and root herbivory reduced root biomass by 68%. Si supplementation,
 however, facilitated compensatory growth such that shoot losses were more
 than compensated for (+14% greater than herbivore-free plants) and root
 losses were minimised to -16%. Si supplementation did not improve plant
 resistance since Si did not enhance biomechanical resistance (i.e. force
 of fracture) or reduce leaf consumption and herbivore relative growth
 rates. We propose that Si-based defence operates in wheat via tolerance
 either in addition, or as an alternative, to resistance-based defence.

title: Data from: Decreased precipitation predictability negatively affects population growth through differences in adult survival

description: Global climate change is leading to decreased climatic predictability.
 Theoretical work indicates that changes in the climate’s intrinsic
 predictability will affect population dynamics and extinction, but
 experimental evidence is scarce. Here, we experimentally tested whether
 differences in intrinsic precipitation predictability affect population
 dynamics of the European common lizard (Zootoca vivipara) by simulating
 more (MP) and less predictable (LP) precipitation in 12 semi-natural
 populations over 3 years and measuring different vital rates. A seasonal
 age-structured matrix model was parametrized to assess treatment effects
 on vital rates and asymptotic population growth (λ). There was a
 non-significant trend for survival being higher in MP than LP
 precipitation, and no differences existed in reproductive rates. Small
 non-significant survival differences in adults explained changes in λ and
 survival differences among age-classes were in line with predictions from
 cohort resonance. As a result, λ was significantly higher in MP than LP.
 This experimentally shows that small effects have major consequences on λ,
 that forecasted decreases in intrinsic precipitation predictability are
 likely to exacerbate the current rate of population decline and
 extinction, and that stage-structured matrix models are required to
 unravel the aftermath of climate change.

title: Data from: Hot wings: thermal impacts of wing colouration on surface temperature during bird flight.

description: Recent studies on bird flight propose that hotter wing surfaces reduce
 skin friction drag, thereby improving flight efficiency (lift-to-drag
 ratio). Darker wings may in turn heat faster under solar radiation than
 lighter wings. We used three methods to test the impact of colour on wing
 surface temperature. First, we modelled surface temperature based on
 reflectance measurements. Second, we used thermal imaging on live ospreys
 (Pandion haliaetus) to examine surface temperature changes with increasing
 solar irradiance. Third, we experimentally heated differently coloured
 wings in a wind tunnel and measured wing surface temperature at realistic
 flight speeds. Even under simulated flight conditions, darker wings
 consistently became hotter than pale wings. In white wings with black
 tips, the temperature differential produced convective currents towards
 the darker wing tips that could lead to an increase in lift. Additionally,
 a temperature differential between wing-spanning warm muscles and colder
 flight feathers could delay the flow separation above the wing, increasing
 flight efficiency. Together, these results suggest that wing colouration
 and muscle temperature both play important roles in modulating wing
 surface temperature, and therefore potentially flight efficiency.

title: Data from: Phenotypic but not genotypic selection for earlier flowering in a perennial herb

description: 1. Timing of reproduction affects the outcome of interactions between
 plants and their pollinators, grazers and seed predators, as well as with
 their local abiotic environment. In seasonal environments, phenotypic
 selection has often been shown to favor early flowering. Yet, we still
 know little about the agents driving selection in natural populations and
 whether observed phenotypic selection corresponds to genotypic selection –
 a prerequisite for evolutionary change. 2. In this study, we
 experimentally assessed phenotypic and genotypic selection for flowering
 time in a natural population of the perennial herb Lathyrus vernus. We
 transplanted sibling individuals, obtained through controlled crosses, to
 their source population and found net phenotypic selection for earlier
 flowering in the field. 3. Despite a higher susceptibility to roe deer
 grazing, early-flowering plants had higher fruit set and more seeds per
 fruit than late-flowering plants. We found no support for genotypic
 selection on flowering time, and heritability for first flowering day was
 very low. 4. Synthesis: Our results suggest that commonly observed
 patterns of higher fitness in early-flowering plants do not always
 correspond to selection on genotypic values and are thus not necessarily
 expected to result in evolutionary change even if the relationship between
 flowering time and fitness is causal. This finding should be important to
 understand how species phenology might respond to changing environmental
 conditions.

title: Data from: Movement of a Heliconius hybrid zone over 30 years: a Bayesian approach

description: Hybrid zones have long been of interest to biologists as natural
 laboratories where we can gain insight into the processes of adaptation
 and speciation. Repeated sampling of individual hybrid zones has been
 particularly useful in elucidating the dynamic balance between selection
 and dispersal that maintains most hybrid zones. Here, we revisit a hybrid
 zone between Heliconius erato butterflies in Panamá for a third time over
 more than 30 years. We combine a novel Bayesian extension of stepped‐cline
 hybrid zone models with environmental data to understand the genetic and
 environmental causes of cline dynamics in this species. The cline has
 continued to move west, likely due to dominance drive, but has slowed and
 broadened. Environmental analyses suggest that widespread deforestation in
 Panamá could be leading to decreased avian predation and relaxed
 selection, causing the observed changes in cline dynamics.

title: Data from: High-resolution contact networks of free-ranging domestic dogs Canis familiaris and implications for transmission of infection

description: Contact patterns strongly influence the dynamics of disease transmission
 in both human and non-human animal populations. Domestic dogs Canis
 familiaris are a social species and are a reservoir for several zoonotic
 infections, yet few studies have empirically determined contact patterns
 within dog populations. Using high-resolution proximity logging
 technology, we characterised the contact networks of free-ranging domestic
 dogs from two settlements (n = 108 dogs, covering &gt;80% of the
 population in each settlement) in rural Chad. We used these data to
 simulate the transmission of an infection comparable to rabies and
 investigated the effects of including observed contact heterogeneities on
 epidemic outcomes. We found that dog contact networks displayed
 considerable heterogeneity, particularly in the duration of contacts and
 that the network had communities that were highly correlated with
 household membership. Simulations using observed contact networks had
 smaller epidemic sizes than those that assumed random mixing,
 demonstrating the unsuitability of homogenous mixing models in predicting
 epidemic outcomes. When contact heterogeneities were included in
 simulations, the network position of the individual initially infected had
 an important effect on epidemic outcomes. The risk of an epidemic
 occurring was best predicted by the initially infected individual’s ranked
 degree, while epidemic size was best predicted by the individual’s ranked
 eigenvector centrality. For dogs in one settlement, we found that ranked
 eigenvector centrality was correlated with range size. Our results
 demonstrate that observed heterogeneities in contacts are important for
 the prediction of epidemiological outcomes in free-ranging domestic dogs.
 We show that individuals presenting a higher risk for disease transmission
 can be identified by their network position and provide evidence that
 observable traits hold potential for informing targeted disease management
 strategies.

title: Data from: DNA indicative of human bocaviruses detected in non-human primates in the Democratic Republic of the Congo

description: Bocaparvoviruses are members of the family Parvovirinae and human
 bocaviruses have been found to be associated with respiratory and
 gastrointestinal disease. There are four known human bocaviruses, as well
 as several distinct ones in great apes. The goal of the presented study
 was to detect other non-human primate (NHP) bocaviruses in NHP species in
 the Democratic Republic of the Congo using conventional broad-range PCR.
 We found bocavirus DNA in blood and tissues samples in 6 out of 620 NHPs,
 and all isolates showed very high identity (&gt;97 %) with human
 bocaviruses 2 or 3. These findings suggest cross-species transmission of
 bocaviruses between humans and NHPs.

title: Data from: High herpesvirus diversity in wild rodent and shrew species in central Africa

description: Objective: Herpesviruses belong to a diverse order of large DNA viruses
 that can cause diseases in humans and animals. With the goal of gathering
 information about the distribution and diversity of herpesviruses in wild
 rodent and shrew species in central Africa, animals in Cameroon and the
 Democratic Republic of the Congo were sampled and tested by PCR for the
 presence of herpesvirus DNA. Methods: A broad range PCRs targeting either
 the Polymerase or the terminase gene were used for virus detection.
 Amplified products from PCR were sequenced and isolates analysed for
 phylogenetic placement. Results: Overall, samples of 1,004 animals of
 various rodent and shrew species were tested and 24 were found to be
 positive for herpesvirus DNA. Six of these samples contained strains of
 known viruses, while the other positive samples revealed DNA sequences
 putatively belonging to 11 previously undescribed herpesviruses. The new
 isolates are beta- and gammaherpesviruses and the shrew isolates appear to
 form a separate cluster within the Betaherpesvirinae subfamily.
 Conclusion: The diversity of viruses detected is higher than in similar
 studies in Europe and Asia. The high diversity of rodent and shrew species
 occurring in central Africa may be the reason for a higher diversity in
 herpesviruses in this area.

title: Data from: DNA of diverse adenoviruses detected in Cameroonian rodent and shrew species

description: Rodent adenoviruses are important models for human disease. In contrast to
 the over 70 adenovirus types isolated from humans, few rodent adenoviruses
 are known, despite the vast diversity of rodent species. PCR and Sanger
 sequencing were used to investigate adenovirus diversity in wild rodents
 and shrews in Cameroon. Adenovirus DNA was detected in 13.8% of animals
 (n=218). All detected sequences differ from known adenovirus types by more
 than 10% on the amino acid level, thus indicating up to 14 novel
 adenovirus species. These results highlight the diversity of rodent
 adenoviruses, their phylogeny, and opportunities for studying alternative
 adenovirus rodent models.

title: Data from: Spatially consistent high-resolution land surface temperature mosaics for thermophysical mapping of the Mojave Desert

description: Daytime and nighttime thermal infrared observations acquired by the ASTER
 and MODIS instruments onboard the NASA Terra spacecraft have produced a
 dataset that can be used to map thermophysical properties across large
 regions, which have implications on surface processes, thermal
 environments and habitat suitability for desert species. ASTER scenes
 acquired between 2004 and 2012 are combined using new mosaicking and
 data-fusion techniques to produce a map of daytime and nighttime land
 surface temperature with coverage exclusive of the effects of clouds and
 weather. These data are combined with Landsat 7 visible imagery to
 generate a consistent map of apparent thermal inertia (ATI), which is
 related to the presence of exposed bedrock, rocks, fine-grained sediments
 and water on the surface. The resulting datasets are compared to known
 geomorphic units and surface types to generate an interpreted mechanical
 composition map of the entire Mojave Desert at 100 m per pixel that is
 most sensitive to large clast size distinctions in grain size
 distribution.
