Comments on a Major Range Extension of the Little-Known Acrocera bakeri (Diptera: Acroceridae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The spider fly Acrocera bakeri Coquillett, 1904 (Diptera: Acroceridae) is reported as a new state record for Wisconsin. This is a major range extension, because this rarely-encountered species was previously known only from the western U.S., specifically

Aerobic scope is sustained through a heatwave in juvenile Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aquatic ectotherms are vulnerable to heatwave‐induced physiological stress, which arises from increased energy demands and reduced dissolved oxygen content in warmer waters. Understanding thermal physiology is critical for predicting how commercially and ecologically important populations could be affected by the increasing risk of rising ...

Understanding marine biodiversity patterns and drivers: The fall of Icarus

open access: yesMarine Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiversity patterns are fundamental in our understanding of the distribution of life, ecosystem function, and conservation. In this concept analysis, A survey of the existing knowledge on marine biodiversity patterns and drivers across latitudes, longitudes, and depths indicates that none of the postulated patterns represent a rule.

Non-invasive quantification of cardiac stroke volume in the edible crab Cancer pagurus

open access: yesFrontiers in Zoology, 2019
Background Brachyuran crabs can effectively modulate cardiac stroke volume independently of heart rate in response to abiotic drivers. Non-invasive techniques can help to improve the understanding of cardiac performance parameters of these animals.

Influences of salinity on the physiology and distribution of the Arctic coralline algae, Lithothamnion glaciale (Corallinales, Rhodophyta) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In Greenland, free-living red coralline algae contribute to and dominate marine habitats along the coastline. Lithothamnion glaciale dominates coralline algae beds in many regions of the Arctic, but never in Godthåbsfjord, Greenland, where Clathromorphum

Shaping future forests: how can ecophysiology support climate‐smart forest management?

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Climate change, particularly the associated increase in extreme events and disturbances, threatens the numerous environmental, social, and economic benefits that forests provide, both locally and globally. Heat and drought pose significant risks to forest ecosystems; the anticipated future climate is expected to exacerbate this trend ...

Drought-mediated oxidative stress and its scavenging differ between citrus hybrids with medium and late fruit maturation

open access: yesPlant Stress
Drought stress is a major environmental factor limiting citrus productivity. Still, differences in drought sensitivity between citrus hybrids of different maturation periods have so far not been reported.

Physiological drought responses improve predictions of live fuel moisture dynamics in a Mediterranean forest. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The moisture content of live fuels is an important determinant of forest flammability. Current approaches for modelling live fuel moisture content typically focus on the use of drought indices.
