Modeling Skin Mark Temporal Variations to Estimate the Sex of Delphinids with Low Sexual Dimorphism: Implications for Management and Conservation

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This work aimed to apply the principles of skin mark analysis to a cetacean species to build a sex‐discrimination model exclusively based on photographic material. Relevant differences between sexes emerged in markings, with males presenting more social, aggression‐related, and fishing‐related marks overall, and a stronger tendency of mark accumulation

Scenario-Based Assessment of Water Quality and Ecological Impacts of Pump Station Overflows in a Peri-Urban Estuary

Hydrology
Wastewater overflows (WOs) are a growing concern for water quality and ecological health in urban estuaries. This study provides a robust water quality and ecological assessment of WOs from four pump stations discharging into the Waimea Estuary, Aotearoa,

Sensory Biology of the Franciscana (Pontoporia blainvillei, Pontoporiidae, Cetartiodactyla): Ontogenetic Modifications of Vibrissae and Vibrissal Crypts

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
The transition of cetaceans from a terrestrial to an aquatic environment involved a crucial sensory adaptation to environments with limited visibility. Vibrissae, important mechanoreceptors, undergo an ontogenetic transformation in odontocetes. This research describes the histomorphology of vibrissae and crypts at different developmental stages ...

A Bayesian classification model to reconstruct lifetime movement patterns of riverine fish using environmental tracers

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Environmental tracers, including both elemental concentrations and isotope ratios, are widely used to reconstruct the movement patterns of animals throughout landscapes. The methodology involves creating a map that describes the distribution of the environmental tracer across the landscape, an isoscape and then matching the values of the same ...

Flow regime variability and wastewater pollution in estuarine systems: a longitudinal assessment of ecological and societal impacts in South Africa’s Eastern Cape

Frontiers in Marine Science
Estuaries are vital socio-ecological systems that support biodiversity, provide nursery habitats, and deliver essential ecosystem services for human well-being. This study focuses on highly impacted estuarine systems affected by chronic wastewater inputs
