Atmospheric Water Harvesting Through Polymer Hydrogel Sorbents: Materials Chemistry, Design Strategies, and Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Polymer‐based hydrogels have emerged as promising materials for atmospheric water harvesting (AWH) due to their high water affinity, tunable network structure, and excellent moisture adsorption‐desorption performance. Functional hydrogel systems enable efficient water capture and controlled release under low‐energy conditions, offering a sustainable ...

Double‐crested cormorant distribution on catfish aquaculture in the Yazoo River Basin of Mississippi

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2012
Estimating the catfish aquaculture production losses that can be attributed to double‐crested cormorants (Phalacrocorax auritus) has proved problematic because knowledge of the distribution of cormorants on catfish aquaculture is lacking.

Seasonal climatic niche and migration movements of Double‐crested Cormorants

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2022
Avian migrants are challenged by seasonal adverse climatic conditions and energetic costs of long‐distance flying. Migratory birds may track or switch seasonal climatic niche between the breeding and non‐breeding grounds. Satellite tracking enables avian

Comparing Transcriptomic Responses to Chemicals Across Six Species Using the EcoToxChip RNASeq Database

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology and Chemistry, EarlyView.
Abstract The EcoToxChip project includes RNA‐sequencing data from experiments involving model (Japanese quail, fathead minnow, African clawed frog) and ecological (double‐crested cormorant, rainbow trout, northern leopard frog) species at multiple life stages (whole embryo and adult) exposed to eight chemicals of environmental concern known to perturb ...

Restoring Lateral Connectivity to Anthropogenic Riverscapes: Six Lessons From Stage Zero

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Centuries of river modification, particularly straightening and incision, have severely reduced lateral connectivity between rivers and their floodplains. As a result, Stage 0 riverscapes, characterised by high lateral connectivity (e.g., anastomosing or wetland riverscapes), are now rare in anthropogenic landscapes.

Field evaluation of artificial intelligence early warning for bird depredation at carp ponds

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
An artificial intelligence‐based early‐warning workflow for bird depredation at a commercial carp farm in Japan. Abstract Piscivorous birds such as the great cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo) can cause substantial losses in pond aquaculture, yet continuous on‐site vigilance is difficult under labor shortages.

The importance of voucher specimens: misidentification or previously unknown mtDNA diversity in Phalacrocorax capillatus (Aves: Phalacrocoracidae)?

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2023
A recently published complete mitochondrial genome of Japanese or Temminck’s cormorant (Phalacrocorax capillatus) was the first of this species (GenBank accession number LC714913).

When is the bait worth the risk? A mechanistic model of a compensatory ecological trap in seabirds

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Ecological traps occur when organisms preferentially select habitats that reduce fitness. In seabird–fishery systems, fishery‐derived trophic subsidies can increase foraging success, reinforce habitat preference and indirectly enhance reproductive output or recruitment,
