Genome Expansion of ZPB1(a) and ZPC1(a) in Basal Species or Liver Expression of ZPB1a and ZPC1aa in Advanced Species, Two Different Strategies to Ensure Sufficient ZP Synthesis in Teleosts

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We found that teleosts employed two different strategies to ensure sufficient ZP (zona pellucida) synthesis: expansion of ZPB1(a) and ZPC1(a) in basal species or liver expression of ZPB1a and ZPC1aa in advanced species. The N‐terminus of expanded ZPB1(a) or ZPC1(a) and liver‐expressed ZPB1a contains repeated units or low‐complexity regions to form ...

Common ground: Efficient, consistent, observer‐independent bioacoustic call density estimation with adjudicated ground truth and capture–recapture detection functions

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Passive acoustic recording is a cost‐effective method for monitoring vocal animals. Within this field, there is an increasing focus on automated detection algorithms for counting calls and estimating call density (in space and time). For accurate interpretation of such results, it is important to understand and correct biases introduced by ...

Lady Anne Kerr: From the Rise of International Conference Interpreting to the Whitlam Dismissal

Australian Journal of Politics &History, EarlyView.
Before Anne Robson (née Taggart) became the second Lady Kerr upon marrying governor‐general John Kerr in 1975, she had an international career of some 30 years working as a French to English interpreter and consultant at over 30 national and international conferences and became the first Australian elected to the International Association of Conference

Flow‐pattern evolution of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet indicated by the subglacial lineation record over Norway, Sweden and Finland

Boreas, EarlyView.
We present a 25‐stage reconstruction of the ice‐flow pattern evolution of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet based on mapping and analysis of ~240 000 subglacial lineations and lineation fields across Norway, Sweden, Finland, and parts of NW Russia. Our reconstruction uses a glacial geomorphological inversion approach, in which we generated 611 individual ...

Thorncliffe Formation: A proglacial to subglacial lacustrine basin sequence, Greater Toronto Region, Canada

Boreas, EarlyView.
Map of Lower sediment (LS) thickness is a surrogate for the distribution of Thorncliffe Formation (TF) and ~75% of TF thickness from the slope of Niagara Escarpment east to Brighton. Inset images show the LS sequence at the Don Valleys brickyards (DVBY) and undeformed TF sand and gravel (~15 m) below Newmarket Till (NT) at sites L and Co.

Taxonomic and functional diversity of benthic foraminifera as a promising proxy for tidewater glacier retreat

Boreas, EarlyView.
Ice sheets and glaciers globally are losing mass at increasing rates, with the strongest changes occurring at tidewater glaciers. These are rapidly retreating and often transitioning to land‐terminating with implications for sea level change and ecosystem functioning.

The collective application of shorebird tracking data to conservation

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Addressing urgent conservation issues, such as the drastic declines of North American migratory birds, requires creative, evidence‐based, efficient, and collaborative approaches. The abundance of over 50% of monitored North American shorebird populations has declined by over 50% since 1980. To address these declines, we developed a partnership

Structured machine learning modeling to support conservation of deep‐sea benthic biodiversity

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiversity monitoring programs need to deliver accurate, timely, and actionable predictions. To establish a predictive monitoring program for deep‐sea benthos of the Santos Basin, Brazil, we developed a two‐stage structured model that allowed comparison of biodiversity predictions obtained from environmental simulations (2M‐Sim).

A Roadmap for Using Hybridisation Capture-Based Target Enrichment of Ancient Environmental DNA in Palaeoecology. [PDF]

Mol Ecol Resour
ABSTRACT Recovering ancient DNA from environmental samples is transforming the way we understand historical ecosystems. While high‐throughput sequencing of the total DNA in environmental samples (shotgun metagenomic sequencing) reveals the taxonomic contents of these samples, the genetic signals of some taxa (e.g., eukaryotes) can be weak compared to ...

Overlap of nonbreeding wandering albatrosses with fisheries and implications for colony‐specific population trajectories at South Georgia

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Bycatch in fisheries is one of the most serious threats to pelagic seabirds, causing major population declines. Mitigation measures can reduce bycatch substantially, but many fisheries fail to apply best practices, and seabird mortality remains high.
