title: Data from: Natal dispersal of tree sloths in a human-dominated landscape: implications for tropical biodiversity conservation

description: 1. Habitat loss and fragmentation resulting from the conversion of
 tropical forests are among the most important threats to biodiversity
 globally. Habitat specialists and species with low dispersal capacity are
 expected to be the most sensitive to such changes. Relatively little is
 known, however, about how habitat change and life history interact to
 impact natal dispersal and population viability in tropical species. 2.
 Here, we characterized natal dispersal patterns, habitat selection, and
 survival rates in two-toed (Choloepus hoffmanni) and three-toed (Bradypus
 variegatus) sloths within a human-dominated tropical landscape in Costa
 Rica consisting of a shade-grown cacao plantation surrounded by riparian
 forests and cattle pastures. 3. Radio-marked individuals of both species
 preferentially selected tropical forests during natal dispersal and were
 commonly observed using riparian forest buffers for dispersal. The more
 specialized and sedentary three-toed sloth, however, avoided both pastures
 and shade-grown cacao for dispersal, whereas two-toed sloths only avoided
 pastures. 4. Juvenile survival was lower for three-toed than two-toed
 sloths, and was lowest immediately following maternal independence for
 both species. Despite interspecific differences, juvenile survival was
 high and sufficient to maintain stable populations of both species. 5.
 Synthesis and applications. Our results indicate that tropical forest
 conversion is more likely to impact the natal dispersal success of
 specialized and dispersal-limited species. Moreover, riparian forest
 buffers appear to provide critical corridors for maintaining such species,
 and biodiversity more broadly, in modified tropical landscapes.07-Feb-2018

title: Data from: Ecological specialization, variability in activity patterns, and response to environmental change

description: Differences in temporal patterns of activity can modulate the ambient
 conditions to which organisms are exposed, providing an important
 mechanism for responding to environmental change. Such differences may be
 particularly relevant to ecological generalists, which are expected to
 encounter a wider range of environmental conditions. Here, we compare
 temporal patterns of activity for partially sympatric populations of a
 generalist (the lodgepole chipmunk, Tamias speciosus) and a more
 specialized congener (the alpine chipmunk, T. alpinus) that have displayed
 divergent responses to the past century of environmental change. Although
 mean activity budgets were similar between species, analyses of
 individual-level variation in locomotion revealed that T. alpinus
 exhibited a narrower range of activity patterns than T. speciosus. Further
 analyses revealed that T. alpinus was more active earlier in the day, when
 temperatures were cooler, and that activity patterns for both species
 changed with increased interspecific co-occurrence. These results are
 consistent with the greater responsiveness of T. alpinus to changes in
 environmental conditions. In addition to highlighting the utility of
 accelerometers for collecting behavioral data, our findings add to a
 growing body of evidence suggesting that the greater phenotypic
 variability displayed by ecological generalists may be critical to in situ
 responses to environmental change.

title: Data from: Collector motion affects particle capture in physical models and in wind pollination

description: Particle capture is important for ecological processes in aquatic and
 terrestrial ecosystems. The current model is based on a stationary
 collector where predictions about capture efficiency (η; flux of captured
 particles : flux of particles) are based on the collector flow environment
 (i.e., collector Reynolds number, Rec; inertial : viscous forces). This
 model does not account for the movement of collectors in nature. We
 examined the effect of collector motion (transverse and longitudinal to
 the flow) on η using a cylindrical model in the lab and the grass species,
 Phleum pratense, in the field. Results demonstrated that collector motion
 increased η (up to 400% and 20% in the lab and field, respectively) and
 also affected the spatial distribution of particles on collectors,
 especially at low Rec. The effect was greatest for collectors moving
 transversely at large magnitude, which encountered more particles with
 higher relative momentum. These results, which differ from the stationary
 model, can be predicted by considering both Rec and the particle dynamics
 given by the Stokes number (Stk; particle stopping distance : collector
 radius) and helped to resolved an existing controversy about pollination
 mechanisms. Collector motion should be considered in wind pollination and
 other ecological processes involving particle capture.

title: Data from: Efficacy of Aedes aegypti control by indoor Ultra Low Volume (ULV) insecticide spraying in Iquitos, Peru

description: Background: Aedes aegypti is a primary vector of dengue, chikungunya,
 Zika, and urban yellow fever viruses. Indoor, ultra low volume (ULV) space
 spraying with pyrethroid insecticides is the main approach used for Ae.
 aegypti emergency control in many countries. Given the widespread use of
 this method, the lack of large-scale experiments or detailed evaluations
 of municipal spray programs is problematic. Methodology/Principal
 Findings: Two experimental evaluations of non-residual, indoor ULV
 pyrethroid spraying were conducted in Iquitos, Peru. In each, a central
 sprayed sector was surrounded by an unsprayed buffer sector. In 2013,
 spray and buffer sectors included 398 and 765 houses, respectively.
 Spraying reduced the mean number of adults captured per house by ~83
 percent relative to the pre-spray baseline survey. In the 2014 experiment,
 sprayed and buffer sectors included 1,117 and 1,049 houses, respectively.
 Here, the sprayed sector's number of adults per house was reduced ~64
 percent relative to baseline. Parity surveys in the sprayed sector during
 the 2014 spray period indicated an increase in the proportion of very
 young females. We also evaluated impacts of a 2014 citywide spray program
 by the local Ministry of Health, which reduced adult populations by ~60
 percent. In all cases, adult densities returned to near-baseline levels
 within one month. Conclusions/Significance: Our results demonstrate that
 densities of adult Ae. aegypti can be reduced by experimental and
 municipal spraying programs. The finding that adult densities return to
 approximately pre-spray densities in less than a month is similar to
 results from previous, smaller scale experiments. Our results demonstrate
 that ULV spraying is best viewed as having a short-term entomological
 effect. The epidemiological impact of ULV spraying will need evaluation in
 future trials that measure capacity of insecticide spraying to reduce
 human infection or disease.

title: Data from: Heritable spouse effects increase evolutionary potential of human reproductive timing

description: Sexual reproduction is inherently interactive, especially in animal
 species such as humans that exhibit extended pair bonding. Yet we have
 little knowledge of the role of male characteristics and their
 evolutionary impact on reproductive behavioural phenotypes, to the extent
 that biologists typically consider component traits (e.g., reproductive
 timing) as female-specific. Based on extensive genealogical data detailing
 the life-histories of 6,435 human mothers born across four centuries of
 modern history, we use an animal modelling approach to estimate the
 indirect genetic effect of men on the reproductive phenotype of their
 partners. These analyses show that a woman's reproductive timing (age
 at first birth) is influenced by her partner's genotype. This
 indirect genetic effect is positively correlated with the direct genetic
 effect expressed in women, such that total heritable variance in this
 trait is doubled when heritable partner effects are considered. Our study
 thus suggests that much of the heritable variation in women's
 reproductive timing is mediated via partner effects, and that the
 evolutionary potential of this trait is far greater than previously
 appreciated.

title: Data from: To eat and not be eaten: diurnal mass gain and foraging strategies in wintering great tits

description: Adaptive theory predicts that the fundamental trade-off between starvation
 and predation risk shapes diurnal patterns in foraging activity and mass
 gain in wintering passerine birds. Foragers mitigating both types of risk
 should exhibit a bimodal distribution (increased foraging and mass gain
 early and late in the day), whereas both foraging and mass gains early
 (vs. late) during the day are expected when the risk of starvation (vs.
 predation) is greatest. Finally, relatively constant rates of foraging and
 mass gain should occur when the starvation-predation risk trade-off is
 independent of body mass. Using automated feeders with integrated digital
 balances, we estimated diurnal patterns in foraging and body mass gain to
 test which ecological scenario was best supported in wintering great tits
 Parus major. Based on data of 40 consecutive winter days recording
 &gt;12 000 body masses of 28 individuals, we concluded that birds
 foraged and gained mass early during the day, as predicted by theory when
 the starvation-predation risk trade-off is mass-dependent and starvation
 risk outweighs predation risk. Slower explorers visited the feeders more
 often, and decreased their activity along the day more strongly, compared
 to faster explorers, thereby explaining a major portion of the individual
 differences in diurnal patterning of foraging activity detected using
 random regression analyses. Birds did not differ in body mass gain
 trajectories, implying both that individuals differed in the usage of
 feeders, and that unbiased conclusions regarding how birds resolve
 starvation-predation risk trade-off require the simultaneous recording of
 foraging activity and body mass gain trajectories. Our study thereby
 provides the first unambiguous demonstration that individual birds are
 capable of adjusting their diurnal foraging and mass gain trajectories in
 response to ecological predictors of starvation risk as predicted by
 starvation-predation risk trade-off theory.

title: Data from: Synopsis and taxonomic revision of three genera in the snake tribe Sonorini

description: Delimiting species is a crucial goal of integrative biology, and yet can
 be misled by homoplasy and high levels of morphological variation. The
 snake tribe Sonorini contains three genera that have long confounded
 taxonomists: Chilomeniscus, Chionactis and Sonora. Dynamic colour
 evolution in this group, including rampant geographic variation in colour
 and colour polymorphism, has led to a chaotic taxonomy. We used
 mitochondrial and high-throughput nuclear data (ddRADseq) and complete
 taxonomic sampling of each genus to reconstruct phylogenetic relationships
 and systematically revise the genus. Our research revealed that Sonora is
 paraphyletic with regards to Chilomeniscus and Chionactis and that at
 least one species (S. semiannulata) is paraphyletic with respect to at
 least one other recognized species. Additionally, we found substantial
 undescribed genetic diversity within multiple species which is incongruent
 with morphological variation in coloration. Accordingly, we proposed
 synonymizing Chionactis and Chilomeniscus with Sonora, which has taxonomic
 priority over both genera. As we found genetic evidence that supported
 some of the historically delimited diversity within multiple taxa, we
 revised species-level taxonomy accordingly. This new taxonomy recognizes a
 revised genus of Sonora that contains 15 species of diminutive and often
 brightly coloured snakes that are distributed from central Mexico to
 north-western USA.

title: Data from: Genetic signatures of microbial altruism and cheating in social amoebas in the wild

description: Many microbes engage in social interactions. Some of these have come to
 play an important role in the study of cooperation and conflict, largely
 because, unlike most animals, they can be genetically manipulated and
 experimentally evolved. However, whereas animal social behavior can be
 observed and assessed in natural environments, microbes usually cannot, so
 we know little about microbial social adaptations in nature. This has led
 to some difficult-to-resolve controversies about social adaptation even
 for well-studied traits such as bacterial quorum sensing, siderophore
 production, and biofilms. Here we use molecular signatures of population
 genetics and molecular evolution to address controversies over the
 existence of altruism and cheating in social amoebas. First, we find
 signatures of rapid adaptive molecular evolution that are consistent with
 social conflict being a significant force in nature. Second, we find
 population-genetic signatures of purifying selection to support the
 hypothesis that the cells that form the sterile stalk evolve primarily
 through altruistic kin selection rather than through selfish direct
 reproduction. Our results show how molecular signatures can provide
 insight into social adaptations that cannot be observed in their natural
 context, and they support the hypotheses that social amoebas in the wild
 are both altruists and cheaters.

title: Data from: Upper rate limits for one-to-one auditory-motor coordination involving whole-body oscillation: A study of street dancers and non-dancers

description: The capacity for auditory-motor coordination (AMC) is shared by several
 species, among which humans are most flexible in coordinating with tempo
 changes. We investigated how humans lose this tempo flexibility at their
 upper rate limit, and the effect of skill level on this phenomenon. Seven
 skilled street dancers, including a world champion, and ten non-dancers
 were instructed to bend their knees according to a metronome beat in a
 standing position at eight constant beat frequencies (3.8-5 Hz). Although
 maximum frequency of movement during the task was 4.8 Hz in the
 non-dancers and 5.0 Hz in the dancers, the rate limit for AMC was 4.1 Hz
 in the non-dancers and 4.9 Hz in the dancers. These results suggest that
 the loss of AMC was not due to rate limit of movement execution, but
 rather due to a constraint on the AMC process. In addition, mediation
 analysis revealed that a kinematic bias (i.e., the extent of knee flexion
 during the task) causally affected the extent of phase wandering via
 mediating factors (e.g., the extent to which movement frequency was
 reduced relative to the beat frequency). These results add evidence that
 gravity acts as constraint on AMC involving vertical rhythmic movement.

title: Data from: Dissolved organic carbon in streams within a subarctic catchment analysed using a GIS/remote sensing approach

description: Climate change projections show that temperature and precipitation
 increases can alter the exchange of greenhouse gases between the
 atmosphere and high latitude landscapes, including their freshwaters.
 Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) plays an important role in greenhouse gas
 emissions, but the impact of catchment productivity on DOC release to
 subarctic waters remains poorly known, especially at regional scales. We
 test the hypothesis that increased terrestrial productivity, as indicated
 by the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), generates higher
 stream DOC concentrations in the Stordalen catchment in subarctic Sweden.
 Furthermore, we aimed to determine the degree to which other generic
 catchment properties (elevation, slope) the explain DOC concentration, and
 whether or not land cover variables representing the local vegetation type
 (e.g., mire, forest) need to be included to obtain adequate predictive
 models for DOC delivered into rivers. We show that the land cover type,
 especially the proportion of mire, played a dominant role in the
 catchment's release of DOC, while NDVI, slope, and elevation were
 supporting predictor variables. The NDVI as a single predictor showed weak
 and inconsistent relationships to DOC concentrations in recipient waters,
 yet NDVI was a significant positive regulator of DOC in multiple
 regression models that included land cover variables. Our study
 illustrates that vegetation type exerts primary control in DOC regulation
 in Stordalen, while productivity (NDVI) is of secondary importance. Thus,
 predictive multiple linear regression models for DOC can be utilized
 combining these different types of explanatory variables.
