Multi‐Scale Habitat Selection of Greater Caribbean Manatees in Sian Ka'an Biosphere Reserve, Mexico
Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT Habitat selection describes population distribution as a function of environmental features. It is a fundamental process with primordial ecological and evolutionary implications. To accurately describe habitat selection, it is important to identify temporal and spatial scales perceived by the population and use these scales when modeling ...

Composition and conservation status of rays sold in Baja California Sur, Mexico
Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 7, Issue 12, December 2025.An analysis of the species composition of ray species sold under a general label in La Paz, Baja California, Sur Mexico. DNA barcode sequencing of the CO1 gene was utilized to assess ray filets, and species identification was compared to IUCN Red List to understand the vulnerability status of ray species being sold.

Harnessing Solar Energy to Reduce Sea Turtle Bycatch
Conservation Letters, Volume 18, Issue 5, September/October 2025.ABSTRACT Over the past decade, illuminating gillnets with LED lights or chemical lightsticks has emerged as a promising solution to reduce sea turtle bycatch while maintaining target fish catch across multiple ocean basins. However, LED lights require replaceable batteries, and chemical lightsticks only last 24 h, leading to recurring operational costs

Evolution of the vaquita/totoaba socio‐ecological system in the Upper Gulf of California, Mexico
Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2025.Abstract The Upper Gulf of California (UGC) hosts a rich marine biodiversity. Complex climatic processes generate high biological productivity enabling the use of resources in a complex socio‐ecological processes (SEPs). Through a literature review, evolution and aggravation of the SEP over 50 years are analyzed.

Evidence for a by‐product mutualism in a group hunter depends on prey movement state
Functional Ecology, Volume 38, Issue 10, Page 2123-2138, October 2024.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Group‐hunting animals have been shown to engage their prey in long pursuits (kms) to increase capture success, but the evidence for this is limited to a few terrestrial species.

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 34, Issue 33, August 14, 2024.Investigation of the ultrahard teeth of a mollusk find in the tropical Pacific reveals the presence of multiple phases of iron oxide as well as calcium phosphate, with highly tuned microstructural features. The combination of these features results in an abrasion‐resistant tough structure with a self‐sharpening ability, which contribute to developing ...

Journal of Fish Biology, Volume 104, Issue 5, Page 1587-1602, May 2024.Abstract Round rays (family: Urotrygonidae) are commonly caught as by‐catch by shrimp trawl fisheries in the tropical eastern Pacific (TEP). However, little information on their life history and catch species composition exists for most round ray species, preventing the evaluation of the impact of fishing on their populations.
