Long-Term Vegetation Dynamics in a Megadiverse Hotspot: The Ice-Age Record of a Pre-montane Forest of Central Ecuador.

Frontiers in plant science

Montoya E, Keen HF, Luzuriaga CX, Gosling WD.
PMID: 29515609
Front Plant Sci. 2018 Feb 20;9:196. doi: 10.3389/fpls.2018.00196. eCollection 2018.

Tropical ecosystems play a key role in many aspects of Earth system dynamics currently of global concern, including carbon sequestration and biodiversity. To accurately understand complex tropical systems it is necessary to parameterise key ecological aspects, such as rates...

Personality influences responses to inequity and contrast in chimpanzees.

Animal behaviour

Brosnan SF, Hopper LM, Richey S, Freeman HD, Talbot CF, Gosling SD, Lambeth SP, Schapiro SJ.
PMID: 25722495
Anim Behav. 2015 Mar 01;101:75-87. doi: 10.1016/j.anbehav.2014.12.019.

Several species besides humans respond negatively to inequity (i.e. receiving a less preferred outcome as compared to a social partner). Among primates, the taxon for which inequity responses have been most comprehensively studied, there are large individual differences in...

Amazon's Mechanical Turk: A New Source of Inexpensive, Yet High-Quality, Data?.

Perspectives on psychological science : a journal of the Association for Psychological Science

Amazon's Mechanical Turk (MTurk) is a relatively new website that contains the major elements required to conduct research: an integrated participant compensation system; a large participant pool; and a streamlined process of study design, participant recruitment, and data collection....

Enriched biodiversity data as a resource and service.

PMID: 25057255
Biodivers Data J. 2014 Jun 16;(2):e1125. doi: 10.3897/BDJ.2.e1125. eCollection 2014.

BACKGROUND: Recent years have seen a surge in projects that produce large volumes of structured, machine-readable biodiversity data. To make these data amenable to processing by generic, open source "data enrichment" workflows, they are increasingly being represented in a...

Effects of Erosion from Mounds of Different Termite Genera on Distinct Functional Grassland Types in an African Savannah.

Ecosystems (New York, N.Y.)

Gosling CM, Cromsigt JP, Mpanza N, Olff H.
PMID: 25983634
Ecosystems. 2012;15(1):128-139. doi: 10.1007/s10021-011-9497-8. Epub 2011 Nov 02.

A key aspect of savannah vegetation heterogeneity is mosaics formed by two functional grassland types, bunch grasslands, and grazing lawns. We investigated the role of termites, important ecosystem engineers, in creating high-nutrient patches in the form of grazing lawns....

A magnetic reconnection X-line extending more than 390 Earth radii in the solar wind.

Nature

Phan TD, Gosling JT, Davis MS, Skoug RM, Øieroset M, Lin RP, Lepping RP, McComas DJ, Smith CW, Reme H, Balogh A.
PMID: 16407946
Nature. 2006 Jan 12;439(7073):175-8. doi: 10.1038/nature04393.

Magnetic reconnection in a current sheet converts magnetic energy into particle energy, a process that is important in many laboratory, space and astrophysical contexts. It is not known at present whether reconnection is fundamentally a process that can occur...

An unusual case of meningococcal meningitis complicated with subdural empyema in a 3 month old infant: a case report.

Cases journal

Yip K, Gosling RD, Jones V, Hosein IK.
PMID: 20181146
Cases J. 2009 Sep 17;2:6335. doi: 10.1186/1757-1626-0002-0000006335.

Subdural empyema is an unusual complication of meningococcal meningitis, and in acute cases can be rapidly fatal. We present a case of an 8 week old infant who presented with atypical Neisseria meningitis with bifrontal subdural empyema formation. Through...

Radiance calibration of the High Altitude Observatory white-light coronagraph on Skylab.

Applied optics

Poland AI, Gosling JT, Macqueen RM, Munro RH.
PMID: 20168614
Appl Opt. 1977 Apr 01;16(4):926-30. doi: 10.1364/AO.16.000926.

The High Altitude Observatory coronagraph produced over 35,000 photographs of the solar corona over 9 mo. Images were obtained on Kodak special film type 026-02, a 3400 (Pan-X) emulsion modified by Kodak for minimal reciprocity losses at the exposure...

Intercomparison of global river discharge simulations focusing on dam operation - Part II: Multiple models analysis in two case-study river basins, Missouri-Mississippi and Green-Colorado.
