Proximate composition, lipid classes, and fatty acid profile were comparatively analyzed in different body parts of carp (Cyprinus carpio) cultivated in Madagascar. Higher (p hypaxial > tail > epaxial. The highest levels (p
Beyond the NAO : The East Atlantic Pattern's Role in Early 20th‐Century Meteorological Droughts in Western EuropeNARA Subscribed
The North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) and the East Atlantic (EA) pattern are the primary winter modes of large‐scale atmospheric variability in the North Atlantic. While EA is generally considered secondary to NAO, recent studies have reported that during the early 20th century, EA was the leading mode of variability instead of NAO. This study builds on that finding to characterise North Atlantic winter atmospheric circulation...
Quantifying Multi‐Day Precipitation Extremes and Their Linkages With Atmospheric Moisture Flux Over IndiaNARA Subscribed
The Indian subcontinent is dominated by a very pronounced summer monsoon season from June to September and a less intense autumn monsoon, both posing major challenges to the densely populated regions, namely through flash floods and landslides. Moreover, the spatial patterns and temporal extent of extreme precipitation events are not uniform across India, with event's durations varying across regions and multiple triggering fa...
Behavioral and morphological traits influencing variation in task performance of Camponotus vagus antsNARA Subscribed
The colony performance of social insects is supported by an efficient allocation of tasks among workers in the colony. The division of labor among ant workers is linked to age and caste polyethism, however, only a few studies have shown the relationship between workers’ behavioral variation and task performance. In this study, we investigated the task syndrome by testing the relationship between behavioral traits with task per...
Seaweed aquaculture can provide the growing human population with a sustainable source of proteins. Sea-based cultivation is an effective method for farming seaweeds on a large scale and can yield high biomass output. However, the quality and biochemical composition of the biomass is seasonally dependent, which limits the harvests to certain periods of the year. Here we show the possibility to extend the sea-based cultivation...
Mammalian carnivores are considered a key group in maintaining ecological health and can indicate potential ecological integrity in landscapes where they occur. Carnivores also hold high conservation value and their habitat requirements can guide management and conservation plans. The order Carnivora has 84 species from 8 families in the Neotropical region: Canidae; Felidae; Mephitidae; Mustelidae; Otariidae; Phocidae; Procyon...
NEOTROPICAL XENARTHRANS: a data set of occurrence of xenarthran species in the NeotropicsNARA Subscribed
Xenarthrans—anteaters, sloths, and armadillos—have essential functions for ecosystem maintenance, such as insect control and nutrient cycling, playing key roles as ecosystem engineers. Because of habitat loss and fragmentation, hunting pressure, and conflicts with domestic dogs, these species have been threatened locally, regionally, or even across their full distribution ranges. The Neotropics harbor 21 species of armadillos,...
Mortality from collision with vehicles is the most visible impact of road traffic on wildlife. Mortality due to roads (hereafter road‐kill) can affect the dynamic of populations of many species and can, therefore, increase the risk of local decline or extinction. This is especially true in Brazil, where plans for road network upgrading and expansion overlaps biodiversity hotspot areas, which are of high importance for global c...
