Anurans or Mice: What is the Best Food Item for Young and Adults of Bothrops jararacussu (Lacerda, 1884) in Captivity?

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.
We use Bothrops jararacussu as a model to introduce three different prey items (mice, exotic anuran – bullfrog and native anurans) in captivity. Our experiments indicated that native anurans could be an interesting food alternative to B. jararacussu and other Bothrops species with an ontogenetic diet in captivity.

Species turnover and climates co‐dominate the carbon–water relationship in grasslands along an elevational gradient

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Water use efficiency (WUE) serves as a core function reflecting vegetation–climate interactions and terrestrial carbon–water cycle. However, direct measurements of WUE are largely constrained to indoor experiments, individual plant and instantaneous physiological ...

Network dynamics revealed from eDNA highlight seasonal variation in urban mammal communities

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Our novel study applied eDNA to track seasonal shifts in urban mammal communities, revealing changes in diversity and species interaction networks across 21 urban parks in Detroit. We highlight the influence of park size and human activity on biodiversity, demonstrating the utility of eDNA for urban conservation and wildlife management.

Above‐ground competition by Nephrolepis brownii inhibits tree seedling recruitment in a tropical restoration experiment

Journal of Applied Ecology, EarlyView.
As Nephrolepis brownii primarily interferes through above‐ground competition, management of above‐ground tissues may mitigate its impact. However, additional research on the efficacy of this management strategy and potential allelopathic traits is needed.

Drivers of kelp forest refugia during successive disturbance events

Journal of Ecology, EarlyView.
Cooler areas with localized upwelling acted as climate refugia during the increased ocean temperatures from the 2014–2016 marine heatwave, supporting nutrient‐rich environments and mitigating heat stress for kelp forests. However, these temperature refugia often did not spatially overlap with areas providing protection from grazing pressure, leaving ...

Kinship through code, personhood as node: AI afterlives and new technologies of the self Parenté par le code, personne nodale : vie posthume dans l'IA et nouvelles technologies du moi

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
This article examines how emerging generative AI technologies in Europe and North America are being used to reanimate the dead, prompting users to define the ‘edges’ of self and personhood through coding practices. These technologies invite new engagements with fundamental questions of relatedness and the construction of the self, challenging and ...
