The expressiveness of spider diagrams augmented with constants [PDF]
Spider diagrams are a visual language for expressing logical statements or constraints. Several sound and complete spider diagram systems have been developed and it has been shown that they are equivalent in expressive power to monadic first order logic ...

Abstract Residents of Tangier Island, Virginia, a subsiding island in the Chesapeake Bay, embody psychosocial dimensions of environmental change. Analysis of ethnographic data shows islanders’ experiences and articulations of anxiety, panic, and despair as “that sinkin’ feeling,” resulting from the stress of living with the long‐term threat of imminent

Defecation in preparation for ecdysis drives microplastic clearance in cricket nymphs
In preparation for ecdysis, cricket nymphs cease feeding and gradually clear their gut contents via frass production, which removes most ingested MPs from their digestive tract. Following exoskeletal moulting, the foregut lining, including any remaining MPs, is shed and excreted alongside frass approximately 6 h later.

Our first assessment of Pholidoscelis erythrocephalus nesting behavior indicates this species creates complex communal nesting sites. Considering the novelty of our nesting data for a Pholidoscelis species, this new knowledge aids our understanding of the reproductive ecology, biodemographics, and conservation of this widely distributed genus ...

How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts
ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...
