SITAR—a useful instrument for growth curve analysis

TL;DR: An alternative SuperImposition by Translation And Rotation (SITAR) model is presented, a shape invariant model with a single fitted curve for the analysis of height in puberty that explained 99% of the variance in both datasets.

An experimental investigation into the effects of traffic noise on distributions of birds: avoiding the phantom road

TL;DR: This is the first study to experimentally apply traffic noise to a roadless area at a landscape scale—thus avoiding the other confounding aspects of roads present in past studies and suggesting that traffic noise is a major driver of effects of roads on populations of animals.

Do plants remember drought? : Hints towards a drought-memory in grasses

TL;DR: The results provide first hints towards a “drought memory” over an entire vegetation period, even after harvest and resprouting, which might also cause reductions in photosynthesis that could have adverse effects on crop yield under more severe or longer droughts.
