The End of Self‐Regulation: Will the Football Governance Act 2025 Fix the National Game?

The Modern Law Review, Volume 89, Issue 4, Page 628-658, July 2026.
The Football Governance Act 2025 is a watershed. It upends the model of self‐regulation that has defined how the game has been run in England and Wales for over a century‐and‐a‐half. The newly created Independent Football Regulator will exercise control over clubs, owners, and competition organisers.

Sharks, Rays, and MPAs: A Global Assessment of Marine Protected Area Coverage in National Waters Across Species Ranges

Conservation Letters, Volume 19, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
ABSTRACT Global conservation agreements emphasize protected area coverage targets, such as the Kunming–Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework's 30 × 30 target, yet their effectiveness in safeguarding biodiversity remains uncertain. We measure the intersection between marine protected area (MPA) coverage and the distribution of sharks and rays.

Recording Cortical Somatosensory Responses During Cross‐Country Skiing: A Feasibility and Reproducibility EEG Study

European Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 64, Issue 1, July 2026.
We found wireless‐EEG to be feasible to record and follow somatosensory evoked potentials during a highly dynamic naturalistic motor task, and that the cortical somatosensory processing was only minimally affected by the phase of the ongoing motor task.

Using Stock Vulnerability to Evaluate Fishery‐Independent Survey Coverage and Inform Sampling Priorities

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 912-926, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The consequences of mis‐managing vulnerable stocks (i.e., those with low productivity and high susceptibility to depletion) are high and potentially permanent. To support sustainable fisheries management, stock assessments can be improved by increasing the quantity and quality of fishery‐independent survey (i.e., survey) data.

Offspring Size Resolves a Population Growth Paradox in Rays and Skates

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 927-941, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The maximum intrinsic population growth rate, rmax, is a key determinant of sustainable fishing limits and is increasingly used in risk assessments. We previously showed how the rmax of rays and skates (subclass Batoidea) scales with adult body size, temperature (and hence depth) such that smaller‐bodied species and those in warmer, shallower ...

The dental plate on bichir pectoral fins: A unique dermal skeletal element bearing individual odontodes with tooth‐like replacement

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 249, Issue 1, Page 127-140, July 2026.
Pectoral fins of bichirs encompass the so‐called dental plates – unique dermal skeletal elements with individual odontodes identical to the oral teeth. Abstract The dermal skeleton appeared early in vertebrate evolution in the form of mineralized skin denticles composed of tooth‐like units—odontodes.
