Climate change has increased heatwave frequency, duration, and intensity globally, which is expected to worsen under warmer conditions. Understanding heatwave variabilities is crucial for the ecosystem and human health they impact, yet comprehensive assessments over China at different spatiotemporal scales remain limited. This study evaluates 12 NASA Earth Exchange Global Daily Downscaled Projections' CMIP6 (NEX‐GDDP‐CMIP6) do...

The phylum Acanthocephala is a ubiquitous group of zooparasites, with major socio‐economic importance. The true diversity of the Acanthocephala is obscured by the phenomena of cryptic speciation and a large degree of intraspecific variation. In this study we describe an example of extreme phenotypic variation in neck morphology. The pomphorhynchid acanthocephalans, Longicollum pagrosomi and Pomphorhynchus zhoushanensis were or...
