title: Data from: Pattern and process in hominin brain size evolution are scale-dependent

description: A large brain is a defining feature of modern humans, yet there is no
 consensus regarding the patterns, rates, and processes involved in hominin
 brain size evolution. We use a reliable proxy for brain size in fossils,
 endocranial volume (ECV), to better understand how brain size evolved at
 both clade- and lineage-level scales. For the hominin clade overall, the
 dominant signal is consistent with a gradual increase in brain size. This
 gradual trend appears to have been generated primarily by processes
 operating within hypothesized lineages – 64% or 88% depending on whether
 one uses a more or less speciose taxonomy, respectively. These processes
 were supplemented by the appearance in the fossil record of larger-brained
 Homo species and the subsequent disappearance of smaller-brained
 Australopithecus and Paranthropus taxa. When the estimated rate of
 within-lineage ECV increase is compared to an exponential model that
 operationalizes generation-scale evolutionary processes, it suggests that
 the observed data were the result of episodes of directional selection
 interspersed with periods of stasis and/or drift; all of this occurs on
 too fine a time scale to be resolved by the current human fossil record,
 thus producing apparent gradual trends within lineages. Our findings
 provide a quantitative basis for developing and testing scale-explicit
 hypotheses about the factors that led brain size to increase during
 hominin evolution.

title: Data from: Species richness effects on grassland recovery from drought depend on community productivity in a multisite experiment

description: Biodiversity can buffer ecosystem functioning against extreme climatic
 events, but few experiments have explicitly tested this. Here, we present
 the first multisite biodiversity × drought manipulation experiment to
 examine drought resistance and recovery at five temperate and
 Mediterranean grassland sites. Aboveground biomass production declined by
 30% due to experimental drought (standardised local extremity by rainfall
 exclusion for 72–98 consecutive days). Species richness did not affect
 resistance but promoted recovery. Recovery was only positively affected by
 species richness in low-productive communities, with most diverse
 communities even showing overcompensation. This positive diversity effect
 could be linked to asynchrony of species responses. Our results suggest
 that a more context-dependent view considering the nature of the climatic
 disturbance as well as the productivity of the studied system will help
 identify under which circumstances biodiversity promotes drought
 resistance or recovery. Stability of biomass production can generally be
 expected to decrease with biodiversity loss and climate change.

title: Data from: Synthesis of zeolites Na-A and Na-X from tablet compressed and calcinated coal fly ash

description: Zeolites Na-A and Na-X are important synthetic zeolites widely used for
 separation and adsorption in industry. It is of great significance to
 develop energy-efficient routines that can synthesize zeolites Na-A and
 Na-X from low-cost raw materials. Coal fly ash (CFA) is the major residue
 from the combustion of coal and biomass containing more than 85% SiO2 and
 Al2O3, which can readily replace the conventionally used sodium silicate
 and aluminate for zeolite synthesis. We used Na2CO3 to replace the
 expensive NaOH used for the calcination of CFA and showed that tablet
 compression can enhance the contact with Na2CO3 for the activation of CFA
 through calcination for the synthesis of zeolites Na-A and Na-X under mild
 conditions. We optimized the control variables for zeolite synthesis and
 showed that phase-pure zeolite Na-A can be synthesized with CFA at
 reactant molar ratio, hydrothermal reaction temperature and reaction time
 of 1.3Na2O: 0.6Al2O3: 1SiO2: 38H2O at 80°C for 6 h, respectively, while
 phase-pure zeolite Na-X can be synthesized at 2.2Na2O: 0.2Al2O3: 1SiO2:
 88H2O at 100°C for 8 h, respectively. The composition, morphology,
 specific surface area, vibration spectrum and thermogravimetry of
 synthesized Na-A and Na-X were further characterized.

title: Data from: Requirement of Pax6 for the integration of guidance cues in cell migration

description: The intricate patterns of cell migration that are found throughout
 development are generated through a vast array of guidance cues.
 Responding integratively to distinct, often conflicting, migratory signals
 is likely crucial for cells to reach their correct destination. Pax6 is a
 master transcription factor with key roles in neural development that
 include the control of cell migration. In this study, we have investigated
 the ability of cells derived from cortical neurospheres from wild-type
 (WT) and Pax6-/- mouse embryos to integrate diverging guidance cues. We
 used two different cues, either separately or in combination: substratum
 nanogrooves to induce contact guidance, and electric fields (EFs) to
 induce electrotaxis. In the absence of an EF, both WT and Pax6-/- cells
 aligned and migrated parallel to grooves, and on a flat substrate both
 showed marked electrotaxis towards the cathode. When an EF was applied in
 a perpendicular orientation to grooves, WT cells responded significantly
 to both cues, migrating in highly oblique trajectories in the general
 direction of the cathode. However, Pax6-/-cells had an impaired response
 to both cues simultaneously. Our results demonstrate that these
 neurosphere derived cells have the capacity to integrate diverging
 guidance cues, which requires Pax6 function.

title: Data from: Savannahs of Asia: evidence for antiquity, biogeography and an uncertain future

description: The savannahs of Asia remain locally unrecognized as distinctive
 ecosystems, and continue to be viewed as degraded forests or seasonally
 dry tropical forests. These colonial-era legacies are problematic, because
 they fail to recognize the unique diversity of Asian savannahs and the
 critical roles of fire and herbivory in maintaining ecosystem health and
 diversity. In this review, we show that: the palaeo-historical evidence
 suggests that the savannahs of Asia have existed for at least 1 million
 years, long before widespread landscape modification by humans; savannah
 regions across Asia have levels of C4 grass endemism and diversity that
 are consistent with area-based expectations for non-Asian savannahs; there
 are at least three distinct Asian savannah communities, namely deciduous
 broadleaf savannahs, deciduous fine-leafed and spiny savannahs and
 evergreen pine savannahs, with distinct functional ecologies consistent
 with fire- and herbivory-driven community assembly. Via an analysis of
 savannah climate domains on other continents, we map the potential extant
 of savannahs across Asia. We find that the climates of African savannahs
 provide the closest analogues for those of Asian deciduous savannahs, but
 that Asian pine savannahs occur in climates different to any of the
 savannahs in the Southern Hemisphere. Finally, we review major threats to
 the persistence of savannahs in Asia, including the mismanagement of fire
 and herbivory, alien woody encroachment, afforestation policies and future
 climate uncertainty associated with the changing Asian monsoon. Research
 agendas that target these issues are urgently needed to manage and
 conserve these ecosystems.

title: The Trajectory of State Power in Water Governance: A 125-Year High-Resolution Dataset of Policy Evolution and Intensification in China (1900–2025)

description: Water resources underpin Earth's ecosystems and societal development, and their security is a determinant of global sustainable development. Driven by accelerating climate change and socio-economic shifts, regions worldwide confront escalating water scarcity, underscoring the dynamic co-evolutionary feedback between water security and socio-economic development. Water management policies function as the primary regulatory instrument for mediating human-water interactions, crucial for improving water use efficiency, ecosystem integrity, and sustainable development. To bridge this knowledge gap, this study constructed and calibrated a high-resolution dataset characterizing the evolution of China's water resource policies from 1900 to 2025, focusing on elucidating policy evolution trajectories and their implications for regional water governance. Drawing from government gazettes, historical archives, and regulations, we employed Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF) algorithms and Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) modeling for data processing. We constructed a high-precision Policy Intensity Index (PII), integrating fragmented historical documents into a standardized dataset spanning distinct eras. Results reveal that China's water policies evolved through a trajectory of "guaranteeing production – promoting economic development – supporting ecological optimization." This methodology offers a precise assessment tool for global water management, while China's evolutionary process provides valuable empirical experience for the Global South.

title: Data from: Escape from predators and genetic variance in birds

description: Predation is a common cause of death in numerous organisms, and a host of
 anti-predator defenses have evolved. Such defenses often have a genetic
 background as shown by significant heritability and micro-evolutionary
 responses towards weaker defenses in the absence of predators. Flight
 initiation distance (FID) is the distance at which an individual animal
 takes flight when approached by a human, and hence it reflects the life
 history compromise between risk of predation and the benefits of foraging.
 Here we analyzed FID in 128 species of birds in relation to three measures
 of genetic variation, band sharing coefficient for minisatellites,
 observed heterozygosity and inbreeding coefficient for microsatellites in
 order to test whether FID was positively correlated with genetic
 variation. We found consistently shorter FID for a given body size in the
 presence of high band sharing coefficients, low heterozygosity and high
 inbreeding coefficients in phylogenetic analyses after controlling
 statistically for potentially confounding variables. These findings imply
 that anti-predator behavior is related to genetic variance. We predict
 that many threatened species with low genetic variability will show
 reduced anti-predator behavior, and that subsequent predator-induced
 reductions in abundance may contribute to unfavorable population trends
 for such species.

title: Data from: Analysis of morphological variability in the clam shrimp Eosestheria middendorfii (Crustacea, Spinicaudata) from the Lower Cretaceous of China, and its implications for spinicaudatan taxonomy

description: Unresolved taxonomic issues regarding spinicaudatans, clam shrimps that
 formed the most abundant faunal element in the lacustrine Barremian to
 Aptian Yixian Formation, have hampered palaeoecological and evolutionary
 interpretations of this key fossil group. Here, we analyse morphological
 variability in East Asian clam-shrimp taxa by quantifying: (1) size and
 shape; and (2) ornamental features (radial lirae distances). Intergeneric
 variability was examined using 51 specimens of various East Asian Mesozoic
 taxa, 16 of which were chosen for a taxonomic revision of the 10 species
 described from the Yixian Formation of western Liaoning. Geometric
 morphometrics proved to be effective for the separation of genera, while
 the quantification of ornamental features was species-diagnostic. Various
 authors have previously indicated the possibility that East Asian
 clam-shrimp species have been split excessively, a criticism that has been
 confirmed by our analyses. According to our results, four of the ten
 species described from the Yixian Formation are valid, of which one might
 represent a junior synonym of Diestheria jeholensis; five taxon names
 represent junior synonyms of Eosestheria middendorfii (Jones), and one a
 nomen dubium. According to lirae distances and analysis of shape,
 Eosestheria fuxinensis, the original type species of Eosestheria, is
 synonymous with the type of Diestheria. Therefore, a new type species for
 Eosestheria is warranted and here fixed as E. middendorfii. This taxonomic
 revision questions the high level of clam-shrimp diversity recognized
 within the Yixian Formation, and indicates that many of the species
 described in fact represent various ontogenetic stages of E. middendorfii.

title: Data from: Genetic coupling of female mate choice with polygenic ecological divergence facilitates stickleback speciation

description: Ecological speciation with gene flow is widespread in nature, but it
 presents a conundrum: how are associations between traits under divergent
 natural selection and traits that contribute to assortative mating
 maintained? Theoretical models suggest that genetic mechanisms inhibiting
 free recombination between loci underlying these two types of traits
 (hereafter, “genetic coupling”) can facilitate speciation. Here, we
 perform a direct test for genetic coupling by mapping both divergent
 traits and female mate choice in a classic model of ecological speciation:
 sympatric benthic and limnetic threespine stickleback (Gasterosteus
 aculeatus). By measuring mate choice in F2 hybrid females, we allowed for
 recombination between loci underlying assortative mating and those under
 divergent ecological selection. In semi-natural mating arenas in which
 females had access to both benthic and limnetic males, we found that F2
 females mated with males similar to themselves in body size and shape. In
 addition, we found two quantitative trait loci (QTLs) associated with
 female mate choice that also predicted female morphology along the
 benthic-limnetic trait axis. Furthermore, a polygenic genetic model that
 explains adaptation to contrasting benthic and limnetic feeding niches
 also predicted F2 female mate choice. Together, these results provide
 empirical evidence that genetic coupling of assortative mating with traits
 under divergent ecological selection helps maintain species in the face of
 gene flow, despite a polygenic basis for adaptation to divergent
 environments.
