Out of the fire and into the frying pan: Hostile post‐fire thermal conditions reduce activity windows for reptiles

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Climate change and intensified fire regimes are reshaping ecosystems globally. Reptiles, as ectotherms, rely on microhabitat shelters to buffer against thermal extremes, yet the capacity of these shelters to persist or function following fire remains poorly understood ...

Partial Characterization of Digestive Proteases in the Common Snook Centropomus undecimalis

International Journal of Biology, 2016
<p class="1Body">Common snook (<em>Centropomus undecimalis</em>) is a marine species with high aquaculture potential; although its digestive physiology is still unknown and knowledge of that could allow the development of a balanced feed for commercial culture of this fish. The objective of this study was to partially characterize the

Growth and Overfishing Indicators Applied to the Protandrous Hermaphrodite Fat Snook (Centropomus parallelus) in the South Atlantic

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The fat snook Centropomus parallelus is a protandrous hermaphrodite teleost of artisanal and recreational value in the South Atlantic, vulnerable to fishing pressure and size‐selective gears. We evaluated exploitation status using size and age based overfishing indicators from recreational fishing championships and artisanal landings along the

Collective Nostalgia Widens the Gap Between Obsessive and Harmonious Passion in Support for Political Violence

Journal of Applied Social Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Collective nostalgia—a longing for a group's shared past—carries both a sweet pull toward ingroup connection and a sour potential for outgroup hostility. We propose that these divergent associations depend on the form of passion people hold for their political cause. Drawing on the dualistic model of passion, we distinguished obsessive passion,

Transport and cryopreservation of sperm of the common snook, Centropomus undecimalis (Bloch)

Aquaculture Research, 2004
Sperm were collected in Florida from wild common snook, Centropomus undecimalis (Bloch), and were shipped to Louisiana State University for analysis and cryopreservation. Threshold activation of sperm (10% motility) occurred at 370 mOsmol kg−1, and complete activation occurred at 680 mOsmol kg−1. These values were significantly different. Sperm samples

The effect of ergonomic intervention in reducing musculoskeletal disorders by Snook table method in a steel industry [PDF]

Journal of Advances in Environmental Health Research, 2014
The most frequent and expensive cause category of compensable loss is manual material handling (MMH). Casting workers who handle oxygen (O2) cylinders manually are at risk for work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs).

Sex‐dependent divergence in river use following maturation in Japanese seabass Lateolabrax japonicus revealed by otolith Sr:Ca chronologies

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Partial migration, in which migratory and resident individuals coexist within a population, is widespread in fishes and contributes to population resilience. However, the role of sex in shaping migratory strategies remains poorly understood. Herein, we examined partial migration in Japanese seabass Lateolabrax japonicus using sex ratios and ...
