A wide variety of consumer products that are treated with poly- and perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) and related formulations are disposed in landfills. Landfill leachate has significant concentrations of PFASs and acts as secondary point sources to surface water. Here, we model how PFASs enter leachate using four lab-scale anaerobic bioreactors...

Understanding plant gene promoter architecture has long been a challenge due to the lack of relevant large-scale data sets and analysis methods. Here we present a publicly available, large-scale transcription start site (TSS) dataset in plants using a high-resolution method for analysis of 5’ ends of mRNA transcripts. Our dataset...

The Pleistocene Carpinteria basin is an east-trending
northward-verging, faulted syncline containing up to
1220m of partially intertonguing Santa Barbara and
Casitas Formations deposited on previously folded pre-
Pleistocene strata with up to 80° discordance. Structures
subcropping against the unconformity indicate most
of the deformation in the Santa Ynez Range prior...

In response to concerns about excessive stand densities and high-severity wildfires, land
managers in the western United States are carrying out extensive programs of fuel reduction
thinning. How will these sudden reductions in canopy cover and associated changes in
habitat affect native and exotic herbaceous vegetation and canopy species regeneration?...

The distribution of the Lesser Prairie-Chicken (Tympanuchus pallidicinctus) has been markedly reduced due to loss and fragmentation of habitat. Portions of the historical range, however, have been recolonized and even expanded due to planting of conservation reserve program (CRP) fields that provide favorable vegetation structure for Lesser Prairie-Chickens. The source...

Background—The effect of intensive blood pressure (BP) lowering on kidney function among individuals with established cerebrovascular disease and preserved estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is not established.
Methods and Results—Among 2610 participants randomized to a lower (<130 mm Hg) versus higher (130–149 mm Hg) systolic BP target with repeated measures...

Social information is used widely in breeding habitat selection and provides an efficient means for individuals to select habitat, but the population-level consequences of this process are not well explored. At low population densities, efficiencies may be reduced because there are insufficient information providers to cue high-quality habitat. This constitutes...
