Aerobic scope is sustained through a heatwave in juvenile Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aquatic ectotherms are vulnerable to heatwave‐induced physiological stress, which arises from increased energy demands and reduced dissolved oxygen content in warmer waters. Understanding thermal physiology is critical for predicting how commercially and ecologically important populations could be affected by the increasing risk of rising ...

Size, not phylogeny, explains the morphology of the endosseous labyrinth in the crown clade Crocodylia

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 246, Issue 4, Page 558-574, April 2025.
Here, we present the most complete dataset to date on the endosseous labyrinths of extant crocodylians. Using 3D geometric morphometrics, we show that allometry constitutes a major contributor of the shape variation of the crocodylian endosseous labyrinths and that the development of this structure is likely linked to the braincase conformation, in all

Measuring sexual dimorphism in human faces

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
CVA outperforms regression scoring when measuring sexual dimorphism in human faces, allowing for more accurate classification and shape reconstruction. Method selection has a significant impact on findings, necessitating a reevaluation of previous claims linking facial masculinity to traits such as height.

Fit for purpose? Analysis of the relationship between skull, beak shape and feeding ecology in Psittaciformes

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Psittaciformes exhibit high levels of morphological diversity, particularly in skull and beak structure, previously linked to diet and body size. Although there were some levels of significance between diet and beak shape, body mass was a much stronger co‐variate. Diet is not determining beak shape within the clade.

Variation in trabecular bone microarchitecture across rhesus macaque (Macaca mulatta) load‐bearing joints

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Aging of bone density (BV/TV) is regional: Forelimb [left] elements gain bone sporadically (orange) but hind limb elements [right] lose bone globally (blue). Abstract Globally, human population structure is quickly trending older, increasing the prevalence and systemic burden of age‐related skeletal disorders such as osteoporosis.
