Humpback Highs and Lows Amid Shifting Seas and a Northeast Pacific Marine Heatwave: Whale Demographics in the Main Hawaiian Islands, 2002–2023

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT North Pacific humpback whales are a celebrated conservation success, rebounding from extensive commercial whaling. Yet they remain vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, a multifaceted stressor that can exacerbate existing threats. During 2013–2016, a Northeast Pacific marine heatwave severely reduced forage availability in their feeding

Temporal bio-monitoring of cadmium in barnacle (Amphibalanus improvisus) and mussel (Mytilaster lineatus) shells as an indicator of pollution in the central southern coast of the Caspian Sea [PDF]

بوم‌شناسی آبزیان, 2017
One of the global problems in developing and the developed countries is contamination of aquatic ecosystems to heavy metals. In this study, the amounts of cadmium (Cd) in the shell of Amphibalanus improvisus (barnacle) and Mytilaster lineatus (mussel ...

Comparing Drone and Vessel‐Based Imaging to Quantify Epibiont Coverage on Humpback Whales

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Cetacean epibionts offer noninvasive insights into host health, physiology, and spatial ecology, yet quantitative assessments in wild populations remain scarce. Although vessel‐based observations may be limited by field of view and analyst input, unoccupied aerial vehicles (UAVs; drones) are increasingly used to monitor cetacean health indices,

Scientific collaboration in data‐intensive research networks: PhD fellows' expectations and early experiences

Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, Volume 77, Issue 9, Page 1153-1168, September 2026.
Abstract Collaboration has become important at all stages of research careers. In data‐intensive research fields such as wind energy, many PhD fellows are socialized to such collaboration in networks that train a cohort of PhD fellows. Based on interviews with 23 PhD fellows in four wind‐energy training networks, we investigate their expectations and ...

Differential recolonization of Atlantic intertidal habitats after disturbance reveals potential bottom-up community regulation [v1; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/4kk]

F1000Research, 2014
In the spring of 2014, abundant sea ice that drifted out of the Gulf of St. Lawrence caused extensive disturbance in rocky intertidal habitats on the northern Atlantic coast of mainland Nova Scotia, Canada.

Molecular and Serological Screening of West Nile and Usutu Virus in Birds and Humans: A Sentinel Study in Finland

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
We developed sensitive real‐time PCR assays for West Nile virus and Usutu virus to screen bird and human samples in Finland. Although no positive samples were detected, active migratory flyways and recent cases in neighbouring countries highlight the risk of future introduction and the need for continued surveillance.

Different effects of mating group size as male and as female on sex allocation in a simultaneous hermaphrodite

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Sex allocation theory predicts that the optimal sexual resource allocation of simultaneous hermaphrodites is affected by mating group size (MGS). Although the original concept assumes that the MGS does not differ between male and female functions, the ...

Pseudonyms, Propaganda, and Prints: The Life and Political Caricatures of William Dent, 1782–931

Journal for Eighteenth-Century Studies, Volume 49, Issue 3, Page 343-373, September 2026.
Abstract ‘Dent was probably an amateur and nothing is known of his life’, state Bryant and Heneage. Despite contributing to caricature's ‘golden age’, William Dent remains overlooked compared to contemporaries like James Gillray. Dent's extensive portfolio (1782–93) and rumoured role as a Pittite propagandist have not secured his place in the canon of ...
