Half a century of echinoid population decline in the northern Gulf of Aqaba, Red Sea

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Multi‐decadal monitoring in the Gulf of Aqaba, northern Red Sea, reveals severe (>90%) declines of key echinoid grazers. These declines signify a collapse of crucial herbivory functions underpinning coral reef resilience. Results implicate accelerating anthropogenic stress as a principal driver, emphasizing the urgent need for sustained, species ...

Fixational Eye Movements in the Earliest Stage of Metazoan Evolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
All known photoreceptor cells adapt to constant light stimuli, fading the retinal image when exposed to an immobile visual scene. Counter strategies are therefore necessary to prevent blindness, and in mammals this is accomplished by fixational eye ...

Chromosome‐scale genome assembly of the South American fruit fly, Anastrepha fraterculus sp.1

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Anastrepha fraterculus sp. 1 is a major fruit fly pest in Argentina, currently controlled through chemical treatments and traps. This study aims to enhance the genomic understanding of this species to support the development of sterile insect technique as well as the use of innovative technologies.

Linking human well-being and jellyfish: Ecosystem services, impacts, and societal responses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
William H. Graham et al.© The Ecological Society of America. Jellyfish are usually perceived as harmful to humans and are seen as >pests>. This negative perception has hindered knowledge regarding their value in terms of ecosystem services.

UV‐Induced Fluorescence in the Balance: Mate Choice and Predation Risk in the Female Ornamented Jumping Spiders

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study investigates the potential adaptive advantages of female‐specific UV‐induced fluorescence in male mate‐choice and predation risk, as fitness costs, using two species of ornate jumping spiders Phintella vittata and Ph. bifurcilinea. Our findings provide empirical evidence of a trade‐off: While fluorescence enhances male mate preference, it ...

Stocking, Enhancement, and Mariculture of Penaeus orientalis and Other Species in Shanghai and Zhejiang Provinces, China [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
China's marine aquaculture landings provide only 18% of its combined freshwater and amrine capture and culture landings, at a per-capita consumption of only 3.2 kg/yr out of a total of 18.1 kg/yr.

Nest Survival Models and Genomics Illuminate Hybridisation Attempts, Guiding Culturally Informed Management to Recover a Critically Endangered Seabird

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Long‐term monitoring has revealed hybridisation attempts between the Critically Endangered Kuaka Whenua Hou (KWH, Pelecanoides whenuahouensis) and the abundant Kuaka (P. urinatrix). Here we use modelling based on population monitoring data in tandem with genomic data to investigate these attempts and the risk they pose to KWH recovery.

Explanation strategies in humans versus current explainable artificial intelligence: Insights from image classification

open access: yesBritish Journal of Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Explainable AI (XAI) methods provide explanations of AI models, but our understanding of how they compare with human explanations remains limited. Here, we examined human participants' attention strategies when classifying images and when explaining how they classified the images through eye‐tracking and compared their attention strategies ...
