We extend a framework of comparative climatology of reproductive habitats of neritic pelagic fishes, heretofore focused on temperate eastern ocean upwelling systems, by adding a tropical western Ocean example. Maritime weather reports off southeastern Brazil are summarized to yield distributions of wind stress, Ekman transport, wind mixing index ...

The Brazilian sardine (Sardinella brasiliensis) and anchoita (Engrautis anchoita) inhabit the southeastern Brazilian Bight. The former spawns at night (21:00-03:00) in coastal region during late-spring and summer, meanwhile, the latter spawns all year ...

Limited contribution by non‐volant small mammals to regeneration in ironstone rocky outcrops
Abstract Introduction Animal‐mediated seed dispersal contributes substantially to natural regeneration in degraded areas. However, the role of seed dispersal by non‐volant small mammals (NVSM), mainly marsupials and rodents, in contributing to regeneration remains underexplored, especially in mountaintop, open‐canopy ecosystems.

Zooplankton and ichthyoplankton distribution on the southern Brazilian shelf: an overview
The southern Brazilian coast is the major fishery ground for the Brazilian sardine (Sardinella brasiliensis), a species responsible for up to 40% of marine fish catches in the region.

Feeding ecology of sprat (Sprattus sprattus L.) and sardine (Sardina pilchardus W.) larvae in the German Bight, North Sea [PDF]
The abundance of the sardine in the North Sea suddenly increased after 1995. Since 2002, the sardine has been spawning regularly in the German Bight, and all its life stages can be found in the area.

Abstract Menopause is the time when a woman transitions from the reproductive stage of life to the non‐reproductive state. It is characterised by significant hormonal changes, which can affect a woman's physical, emotional, mental and social well‐being.

Early-life-history profiles, seasonal abundance, and distribution of four species of Clupeid larvae from the northern Gulf of Mexico, 1982 and 1983 [PDF]
We present data on ichthyoplankton distribution, abundance, and seasonality and supporting environmental information for four species of coastal pelagics from the family Clupeidae: round herring Etrumeus teres, scaled sardine Harengula jaguana ...

An observational study of the evolution of the atmospheric boundary-layer over Cabo Frio, Brazil [PDF]
The effect of coastal upwelling on the evolution of the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) in Cabo Frio (Brazil) is investigated. For this purpose, radiosounding data collected in two experiments made during the austral summer (upwelling case) and austral ...

Anti‐Predation and Size‐Dependent Gas Exchange Functions of Amazonian Architect Cicada Towers
Clay towers built by cicada nymphs before metamorphosis are poorly understood. We experimentally show that towers of the Amazonian cicada Guyalna chlorogena reduce predation risk and exhibit size‐dependent growth responses to gas exchange obstruction, supporting their interpretation as adaptive extended phenotypes.
