Ocean warming is driving the redistribution of species at a global scale. Biogeographic transition zones are hotspots of species range shifts, as both warm‐ and cold‐adapted species are found toward contrasting range edges. While anecdotal evidence suggests some distributional shifts have occurred in the northeast Atlantic, the empirical evidence base ...

Change Detection of Coral Reef Habitat Using Landsat Imagery in Morotai Island North Maluku Province [PDF]
Scientific information on coral reef habitat changes of Morotai island is very limited to none. This study aimed to detect the change of coral reef habitats between 1996 and 2013, using Landsat imagery integrated with field data in 2012. The research was

Abstract Soft robots, engineered from highly compliant materials, offer superior adaptability and safety in unstructured environments compared to their rigid counterparts. Recent advancements, fueled by bio‐inspiration and material programmability, have led to the rapid co‐evolution of their core modules: actuation, sensing, protection, energy, and ...

Stress-strain model and deformation parameters of K0-consolidated coral sand
The stress path followed by soil consolidation in the hydraulic filling site where the coral sand is used as the filling materials is characterized by K0-consolidation. In order to investigate the stress-strain behaviors of the K0-consolidated coral sand,

Investigating shellfish deposition and landscape history at the Natia Beach site, Fiji [PDF]
The relationship between environmental variation and subsistence practices is a central point of discussion in much Oceanic archaeology. While human predation can significantly reduce prey populations, environmental variation also contributes to ...

We demonstrated that Awaous tajasica performs facultative air breathing under experimental conditions of dissolved oxygen limitation, retaining air bubbles in the buccal cavity during gill ventilation. Morpho‐functional evidence indicates the use of atmospheric oxygen as a respiratory support under conditions of low water oxygenation.
