Population‐specific bycatch risks in two vulnerable anadromous clupeids: Insights from otolith microchemistryNARA Subscribed
Otolith microchemistry analysis revealed that bycatch of European shads, allis shad Alosa alosa and twaite shad Alosa fallax , in western Iberian commercial fisheries removes individuals from a wide array of natal origins, with the most abundant source rivers suffering the heaviest losses. Spatial variation in bycatch risk was evident: Specific marine areas exhibited high natal origin diversity, reflecting complex dispersal. A...
Social cognition—the complex mental ability to perceive social stimuli and negotiate the social environment—has emerged as an important cognitive ability needed for social functioning, everyday functioning, and quality of life. Deficits in social cognition have been well documented in those with severe mental illness including schizophrenia and depression, those along the autism spectrum, and those with other brain disorders w...
What Predicts Gene Flow During Speciation? The Relative Roles of Time, Space, Morphology and ClimateNARA Subscribed
The processes that restrict gene flow between populations are fundamental to speciation. Here, we develop a simple framework for studying whether divergence in morphology, climatic niche, time and space contribute to reduced gene flow among populations and species. We apply this framework to a model system involving a clade of spiny lizards ( Sceloporus ) occurring mostly in northeastern Mexico, which show striking variation i...
Changes to virus taxonomy and the ICTV Statutes ratified by the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (2024)NARA Subscribed
This article reports changes to virus taxonomy and taxon nomenclature that were approved and ratified by the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) in April 2024. The entire ICTV membership was invited to vote on 203 taxonomic proposals that had been approved by the ICTV Executive Committee (EC) in July 2023 at the 55th EC meeting in Jena, Germany, or in the second EC vote in November 2023. All proposals were ra...
Available information and potential data gaps for non-fish marine organisms (cnidarians, crustaceans, echinoderms, molluscs, sponges, mammals, reptiles, and seabirds) covered by the global database SeaLifeBase were reviewed for eight marine ecosystems (Adriatic Sea, Aegean Sea, Baltic Sea, Bay of Biscay/Celtic Sea/Iberian Coast , Black Sea, North Sea, western Mediterranean Sea, Levantine Sea) across European Seas. The review o...
Biochar, but not soil microbial additives, increase the resilience of urban plant species to low water availabilityNARA Subscribed
Impervious surfaces that characterise urban areas can make them harsh, water-limited places for plants to grow. To help alleviate plant stress under these challenging drought conditions, a range of soil additives can be utilised. Although well-studied individually, our understanding of the interaction between different soil additives in alleviating drought stress in urban areas is rudimentary. The aim of this study was to (1)...
Anthropocene isostatic adjustment on an anelastic mantleNARA Subscribed
A general assumption in geodesy is that solid Earth deformation in the presence of recent hydrological and ice loading is well approximated by a purely elastic response. In cases where there is clear evidence that thermal and petrological conditions exist that favor vigorous high-temperature creep behavior, such as in the mantle beneath Iceland, Patagonia, Alaska, Japan, and Svalbard, many response models have been approximate...
Ecomorphology of toothed whales (Cetacea, Odontoceti) as revealed by 3D skull geometryNARA Subscribed
Extant odontocetes (toothed whales) exhibit differences in body size and brain mass, biosonar mode, feeding strategies, and diving and habitat adaptations. Strong selective pressures associated with these factors have likely contributed to the morphological diversification of their skull. Here, we used 3D landmark geometric morphometric data from the skulls of 60 out of ~ 72 extant odontocete species and a well-supported phylo...
