Effects of climate change on marine biodiversity on the western Atlantic coast

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The current climate crisis, driven by greenhouse gas emissions, threatens global biodiversity, including that in marine ecosystems. However, projections for the western Atlantic Ocean that jointly quantify species richness and endemism while accounting for spatially biased and incomplete occurrence data remain limited.

The Delaware Toxics Reduction Program (DelTRiP)

open access: yes, 2007
This pamphlet provides some introductory information about the Delaware Toxics Reduction Program (DelTRiP). DelTRiP is a multi-agency effort chaired by the DRBC to identify, track, prioritize, and report the status of contaminated sites that contribute ...

Cryptic diversity highlights the challenge of Linnean and Wallacean shortfalls and the integral role of taxonomy in biodiversity conservation

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Reliable and current taxonomic data are essential to conservation planning and prioritization. The use of genetic and genomic tools has revealed significant cryptic diversity across taxa and ecosystems, suggesting we are underestimating threatened biodiversity and using outdated species distributions.

Hydropower Regulation of Xingu River Discharge Structures Heterogeneous, Sector‐Specific Responses in Pacu Fisheries Along the River Continuum

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hydroelectric dams are common in Amazonian tributaries under federal environmental licensing that requires long‐term fisheries monitoring. This study evaluated three fishing systems targeting “pacu” species (Serrasalmidae) in the Xingu River before, during, and after construction of the Belo Monte dam (2012–2023) across four river sectors ...

Eustatic and tectonic change effects in the reversion of the transcontinental Amazon River drainage system

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Geology
: The development of the transcontinental Amazon River System involved geological events in the Andes Chain; Vaupés, Purus and Gurupá arches; sedimentary basins of the region and sea level changes. The origin and age of this river have been discussed for

Global length–weight relationships of deep‐pelagic fishes: Coverage, biases and variability

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Length–weight relationships (LWRs) are morphometric tools that allow body mass to be estimated from fish length, providing input for fisheries, ecological and biodiversity studies. For deep‐pelagic fishes, however, LWR data remain fragmented and unavailable for most species.

Seasonal dynamics of fish diversity and assemblage composition in temporary pools of a protected Atlantic Forest area

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Atlantic Forest is one of the top five biodiversity hotspots on the planet and is considered a global priority for conservation, largely due to extensive human‐driven deforestation. Temporary pools in the Atlantic Forest harbour unique and vulnerable fish assemblages, yet remain poorly studied, particularly within protected areas.

Diagnosis and Off‐Label Treatment of Subcutaneous Putative Dracunculoid Nematodes in Apteronotus albifrons Originating From Wild‐Caught Fisheries

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Apteronotus albifrons (Gymnotiformes: Apteronotidae), commonly known as the black ghost knifefish, is a high‐value ornamental fish that is susceptible to various parasites. The affected fish were wild‐caught fisheries and subsequently introduced into a commercial breeding system.
