Must Longtermists Wish Us All Dead? A Quadrilemma
Journal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Longtermists assign great moral importance to making the long‐term future as good as possible, especially by ensuring the survival of humanity. We argue, to the contrary, that on assumptions that are plausible, conservative, or shared by leading longtermists, human extinction will likely augment total utility among human and non‐human animals ...

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.MIDS (Multi‐frame Individual Distinctions by Size) is a new software package for improving how fish populations are assessed using stereo‐video data. By using the length, error and statistical inference of measurements, MIDS distinguishes individuals across multiple video frames and autonomously removes repeat observations, regardless of when the ...

Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.ABSTRACT A hectocotylus is a sexually modified arm used by males of some cephalopod species to transfer spermatophores to females. In most cuttlefish (Sepiidae), it corresponds to the left arm IV, in which basal suckers are reduced or absent; this modification is thought to facilitate sperm transfer without premature rupture, which could be caused by ...

Cephalopod Ink: Production, Chemistry, Functions and Applications
Marine Drugs, 2014 One of the most distinctive and defining features of coleoid cephalopods—squid, cuttlefish and octopus—is their inking behavior. Their ink, which is blackened by melanin, but also contains other constituents, has been used by humans in various ways for ...

Advancing conservation breeding programs for marine invertebrates
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract In the face of ecosystem change and biodiversity loss caused by climate change and other stressors, conservation breeding, or captive breeding, with the aim of reintroduction for wild population recovery, is an emerging tool for preventing species’ extinction and rehabilitating ecosystems.

An Updated Ecology of Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) at Sea
Fisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Atlantic salmon have had a key role in European and North American oceans and human societies. Salmon are exploited and observed in rivers and along coasts, but there has always been great interest in knowing where salmon are going when they are at sea.
