[Access and reuse conditions] This database and its components are subject to a Creative Commons Attribution International licence 4.0., The cost of reproduction is a key concept in life-history trade-offs. However, our understanding of the reproductive costs is biased towards measures of reproductive effort obtained before offspring independence. During the post-fledging dependence period (PFDP) is well known that parents feed and protect their offspring. However, the effort devoted to this reproductive activity has never been considered under the scheme of the costs of reproduction, and the potential fitness benefits and costs, for offspring and parents respectively, of the duration of PFDP remain barely known. We estimated the duration of the PFDP during 5 years using wild common kestrels (Falco tinnunculus) and studied its association with survival probability and future parental reproductive performance. Our results show that longer PFDPs increased the survival probability of fledglings, probably due to the benefits obtained by parental care. Also, we found that providing longer PFDPs was associated with reduced clutch sizes but not number of fledglings the subsequent breeding season in males. We suggest that increased parental expenditure on offspring during the PFDP may represent a potential cost of reproduction in breeding males., The long-term monitoring associated to this study was funded by projects CGL2004- 04479/BOS, CGL2007-61395/BOS, CGL2010-15726/BOS and CGL2015-70639-P from the Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad, Peer reviewed

Los datos se componen de grupos de 3 imágenes de microscopía XPEEM correspondientes a 5 islas nanométricas de magnetita. Cada isla está identificada en el nombre de los datos como i1, i2….i5, y las tres imágenes de cada isla con el identificador R0, R60 y R120., We have grown high quality magnetite microcrystals free from antiphase boundaries on Ru(0001) by reactive molecular beam epitaxy, conserving bulk magnetic properties below 20 nm thickness. Magnetization vector maps are obtained by X-ray spectromicroscopy and compared with micromagnetic simulations. The observed domain configurations are dictated purely by shape anisotropy, overcoming the possible influences of (magneto)crystalline anisotropy and defects, thus demonstrating the possibility of designing spin structures in ultrathin, magnetically soft magnetite at will., UE, programa H2020, Proyecto AMPHIBIAN n º 720853., Peer reviewed

The dataset contains the information of the animal-vehicle collisions reported to the traffic authorities in the province of Seville (Andalusia, Spain). Data were provided by the Provincial Directorate of Traffic of Seville (DGT). The dataset includes the year, date and hour of the collision, the day of the week, sunrise and sunset time for Seville the day of collision, the location of the collision (road (Road ID), kilometer point (Km) and coordinates (latitude and longitude) as well as the animal involved in the reported collision., Animal-vehicle collisions have become a serious traffic safety issue. Collisions have steadily increased over the last few decades, as have their associated socio-economic costs. Here, we explore the spatial and temporal patterns of animal-vehicle collisions reported to authorities in the province of Seville, southern Spain. Most animal-vehicle collisions involved domestic animals (>95%), particularly dogs (>80%), a pattern that sharply contrasts with that found in other Spanish and European regions, where collisions are mostly caused by game species. Dog-vehicle collisions were related to the traffic intensity of the roads and they were more frequent around dawn and dusk, coinciding with the peaks of activity of dogs. This pattern was consistent throughout the week, although on weekends there were fewer collisions due to lower traffic density at those times. These findings suggest that the aggregation of dog-vehicle collisions around twilight likely resulted from a combined effect of the activity peaks of dogs and traffic density. Seasonally, collisions increased in autumn and winter, coinciding with the period of intense hunting activity in the region. Further, during autumn and winter, rush hour partly overlaps with twilight due to longer nights in comparison with summer and spring, which may contribute to the increased rate of dog-vehicle collisions in these seasons. Spatially, satellite images of nighttime lights showed that dog-vehicle collisions were clustered near urban areas. Overall, the high incidence of stray dogs involved in animal-vehicle collisions highlights a road safety issue with this type of animals in the region, Peer reviewed

The dataset contains data on profiles of bulk density, concentrations of organic matter, carbonate, organic carbon and inorganic carbon, density of organic and inorganic carbon, δ13C and abundance of 210Pb along sediment cores. The sediment cores were collected inside three Zostera marina meadows growing in Western Greenland: Ameralik (64°15’N, 51°35’W), Kapisillit (64°28’N, 50°13’W) and Kobbefjord (64°09’N, 51°33’W) (Marbà et al 2018). The sediment cores were sliced every 1 or 2 cm depending on the core. Dry bulk density was measured by dividing the weight after oven-drying them at 60 oC for 48 h by the wet volume of the sediment sample. Concentration of total 210Pb was determined by alpha spectrometry following Sanchez-Cabeza et al. (1998) . The concentration of excess 210Pb was calculated as total 210Pb minus supported 210Pb, estimated as the average of total 210Pb concentration at the base of each sediment core profile. Supported 210Pb values were comparable to the 226Ra concentrations obtained at selected depths in each core. The depth of the sediment horizon accreted since year 1900 was identified by applying constant flux: constant sedimentation (CF:CS) model (Krishnaswamy et al 1971) and the year of sediment accretion at the top of each slice by applying the constant rate of supply (CRS) model (Appleby and Oldfield 1978) . Organic matter concentration (OM, % DW) was measured using the loss of ignition technique. Sediment organic carbon concentrations (Corg, % DW) were estimated from measured organic matter concentrations (OM, % DW) using the relationship described by Fourqurean et al. (2012). Concentration of inorganic carbon (Cinorg, %DW) was measured by conducting a second combustion of the sediment samples at 1000 oC for 2 h and multiplying the amount of CO2 released from the carbonate by 0.27 (i.e. the ratio of the atomic weight of carbon (12 g) to the molecular weight of CO2 (44 g)). Densities of Corg (g Corg cm-3) and Cinorg (g Cinorg cm-3) were calculated by multiplying, respectively, Corg and Cinorg concentrations by the sediment dry bulk density of each sediment sample. We analyzed the 13C of the sediment organic carbon in acidified samples by an isotope ratio mass spectrometer (Thermo fisher scientific) and report it in the δ notation as the ratio of the 13C to the 12C isotope in the sample (Rsample) relative to that of a standard (Standard) i.e., δ sample = 1000 [(Rsample/ Rstandard) − 1]. The primary standard is Vienna Pee Dee Bellemnite (VPDB) and secondary standards are Acetanilide (Schimmelmann) and sucrose. The seagrass contribution in the sediment organic carbon pool after year 1900 was estimated by applying a two source-mixing model, δ13Csed after 1900 = δ13Cseagr * f + [δ13Csed before 1900 * (1-f)], that considered Z. marina (δ13Cseagr Ameralik = -7.31 ± 0.02 ‰, δ13Cseagr Kapisillit = -6.58 ± 0.33 ‰, δ13Cseagr Kobbefjord = -7.83 ± 0.15 ‰) and a business as usual carbon source scenario, represented by the average δ13Csed observed in sediments accreted before year 1900 (δ13Csed after 1900 = -30.44 ± 0.38 ‰), as end members. We corrected for the historical change in the δ13C source signatures due to 13C depletion in the atmospheric CO2 and oceanic DIC δ13C signature towards present derived from the burning of fossil fuels (i.e. Suess effect, Keeling 1979). This was done by applying the model described by Schelske and Hodell (1995) and modified by Verburg (2007): δ13Catm = 4577.8 – 7.343 *Y + 3.9213 * 10-3 * Y2 – 6.9812 * 10-7 * Y3 to estimate the δ13C of atmospheric CO2 (δ13Catm) over time (years, Y) since year 1840. These values were subsequently normalized to δ13Catm in year 1840, and the resulting time-dependent depletion in δ13C since1840 was subtracted from the measured δ13Csed for each dated sediment section., The dataset provides data on organic matter (OM), carbonate (CaCO3), organic carbon (Corg), inorganic carbon (Cinorg), 13C in organic carbon and 210Pb in sediment cores collected at three Zostera marina meadows from Western Greenland., EU FP7 (project Opera’s, contract number 308393) and King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST).

The dataset also includes values from terminal tissue samples (ornaments, liver, heart and fat) and the carotenoid and vitamin content in the egg yolk. Finally, it also includes initial values as residuals from mixed models controlling for random factors (e.g. lab session) and confounding covariates (red chip hue in leg pictures). These residuals were used as covariates in model testing experimental treatment effects on final values., Esther García-de Blas was supported by a predoctoral grant (JAE-PRE) from the Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC) co-financed by Fondo Social Europeo (EU).

We compiled a database containing information on the relationships between mass and length of individuals from six main groups of soil invertebrate arthropods: arachnida, chilopoda, diplopoda, entognatha, insecta and isopoda (see Table S1). This information was obtained both from the literature and from our own field sampling (see Appendix S2, Table S2). All studies included in the database estimated length as the total body length of the arthropods without appendages, which according to how it is measured, it is a homologous trait across all the studied taxa (Fig. 1). In total, the database included 283 mass-length relationships (equations hereafter) from 45 georeferenced sites located all over the world, from the Equator to high latitudes, and from many disparate biomes (Fig. 2, see Table S3). The most intensely sampled arthropods were arachnida (112 equations) and insecta (102 equations) (see Table S2). Because sample size usually affects the accuracy of the estimates, we included in the database only those equations that included information on sample size, of which only 66% contained information on the standard errors of the a and b estimates., This work was funded by grants CGL2014-61314-EXP and CGL2015-66192-R from the Spanish Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad (European funds FEDER) and P12-RNM-1521 from Junta de Andalucía (European funds FEDER).

Complex neurodevelopmental syndromes in newborns frequently have an unknown etiology, in which genetic factors play a pathogenic role. We have studied a family with an affected child presenting since birth epileptic-like crisis combined with severe neuromotor and developmental delay, dystonia, and hyper-excitability of unknown origin. Genomic studies by Whole-exome sequencing (WES) were performed in the four members of the family. In the patient, WES detected a de novo in-frame duplication of thirty-three nucleotides within exon seven of KCNQ2 (potassium M-channel). This insertion results in the duplication of the first twelve aminoacids of the calmodulin binding site I, which impairs its regulation by calcium. The dataset includes the WES raw sequence reads (fastq format) of the four family members: mother, father, daughter and son (patient)., Centro de Investigación del Cáncer (CSIC- Universidad de Salamanca)., 2018_CIC_Sample_MOTHER_1.fastq.gz; 2018_CIC_Sample_MOTHER_2.fastq.gz; 2018_CIC_Sample_FATHER_1.fastq.gz; 2018_CIC_Sample_FATHER_2.fastq.gz; 2018_CIC_Sample_SON_PATIENT_1.fastq.gz; 2018_CIC_Sample_SON_PATIENT_2.fastq.gz; 2018_CIC_Sample_DAUGHTER_1.fastq.gz; 2018_CIC_Sample_DAUGHTER_2.fastq.gz, Peer reviewed
