The Early Crystal Nucleation Process in Hard Spheres shows Synchronised Ordering and Densification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We investigate the early part of the crystal nucleation process in the hard sphere fluid using data produced by computer simulation. We find that hexagonal order manifests continuously in the overcompressed liquid, beginning approximately one diffusion ...

Immanent Critique in Political Education: Indoctrination or Emancipation?

open access: yesConstellations, Volume 32, Issue 4, Page 669-680, December 2025.
ABSTRACT This article assesses whether critical political education, which immanently criticizes society, is able to avoid the challenge of indoctrination. For this purpose, the article reconstructs premises of critical political education, contemporary theories of immanent critique, and criteria of indoctrination.

Measuring juvenile habitat quality for fishes and invertebrates

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 6, Page 2346-2395, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Identifying the role of marine and estuarine habitats in supporting fish and invertebrate populations during vulnerable juvenile life stages is essential to achieve effective conservation and fisheries management. There remains general agreement that: (i) the quality of juvenile habitat is best measured as the contribution of juveniles to ...

Development and health status of Centropomus undecimalisparasitized by Rhabdosynochus rhabdosynochus (Monogenea) under different salinity and temperature conditions

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária
This study evaluated the correlation of hematological parameters with the mean abundance of the monogenean helminth Rhabdosynochus rhabdosynochus in Centropomus undecimalis reared at different temperatures and salinities. The experimental conditions were:

The low intestinal and hepatic toxicity of hydrolyzed fumonisin B1 correlates with its inability to alter the metabolism of sphingolipids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Fumonisins are mycotoxins frequently found as natural contaminants in maize, where they are produced by the plant pathogen Fusarium verticillioides. They are toxic to animals and exert their effects through mechanisms involving disruption of sphingolipid

Male mate‐choice copying: a neglected aspect of sexual selection

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2025, Issue 11, November 2025.
Mate‐choice copying occurs when the choices of others influence an individual's mating preferences. While this behavior has been observed across various species, most research has focused on female copying behavior. However, male mate‐choice copying warrants independent attention due to the distinct benefits and costs it entails for males compared to ...

Feeding rate and feeding frequency affect growth performance of common snook (Centropomus undecimalis) juveniles reared in the laboratory

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2019
The effects of feeding rate and feeding frequency on the growth of laboratory-reared common snook (Centropomus undecimalis) were evaluated. Juveniles with mean±SD weight of 2.55±0.48 g and total length of 6.81±0.48 cm were divided into groups of 20 fish ...

Potential use of offshore marine structures in rebuilding an overfished rockfish species, bocaccio (Sebastes paucispinis) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Although bocaccio (Sebastes paucispinis) was an economically important rockfish species along the west coast of North America, overfishing has reduced the stock to about 7.4% of its former unfished population. In 2003, using a manned research submersible,
