Efecto del parasitismo del isópodo bopírido Ionella agassizi (Isopoda: Epicaridea) (Bornnier, 1900) sobre la fisiología nutricional del nape Neotrypaea uncinata (M. Edwards, 1837) (Decapoda: Thalassinidea) Effects of parasitism in nutritional physiology of the ghost shrimp Neotrypaea uncinata parasitized by the isopod Ionella agassizi

Revista Chilena de Historia Natural, 2000
El nape Neotrypaea uncinata se encuentra parasitado en sus branquias por el isópodo Ionella agassizi. Trabajos anteriores han señalado que I. agassizi provoca un efecto negativo en la biología reproductiva del nape, afectando significativamente tanto el ...

Unusual biota and palynofacies of a Lower Devonian intermontane basin saline lake–playa mudflat ecosystem

Papers in Palaeontology, Volume 12, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract The Strathpeffer–Struie Lower Devonian LORS (Lower Old Red Sandstone) deposits of the Northern Highlands of Scotland contain the decidedly unusual ‘foetid beds’. These are interpreted as being deposited in a highly saline sulphate lake and associated playa mudflat, which developed in an intermontane basin in the Caledonian Mountains of ...

Two Regimes of Waste and Value: ‘Post‐Disaster’ Landscapes in a New India

Development and Change, Volume 57, Issue 1, Page 27-49, January 2026.
ABSTRACT In this age of ‘disaster capitalism’, catastrophes are neither ‘natural’ nor ‘external’. They are political events mediating and vitally shaping the unequal and exploitative use of environmental resources. India's ‘post‐disaster’ landscapes at the turn of the new millennium powerfully demonstrate how visions of the new‐normal can be imposed in

How Robust is Eschrichtius robustus? A Novel Photographic Index of Body Condition From Boat‐Based Photographs of Gray Whales

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Although the eastern North Pacific gray whale (Eschrichtius robustus) population has recovered from population declines associated with whaling, they are closely monitored, especially in association with Unusual Mortality Events. Metrics to improve assessment of the health of individual animals, when averaged, are valuable to inform monitoring

Testing biodegradable interventions to disrupt plant–animal feedbacks and promote seagrass establishment

Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 1, January 2026.
Biogeochemical and physical feedbacks are well known to prevent ecosystem recovery even after initial disturbance factors are mitigated. However, multi‐trophic interactions that may maintain disturbed areas have received less attention, despite their potential importance in mediating restoration success. In this study, we surveyed stingray feeding pits

Two new records of Ghost shrimps (Crustacea:Decaoda:Axiidea) from Bushehr, Persian Gulf, Iran

Iranian Journal of Animal Biosystematics, 2014
There are two species of Ghost shrimps namely, Neocallichirus jousseaumei, N. calmani of which the latter is the first record for the Persian Gulf (littoral and subtidal zones). While, N. jousseaumei is first record for littoral zones along coastal waters of the Persian Gulf. The material of present study was collected from Ouli village along the coast

Fragme∩t: An Open‐Source Framework for Multiscale Quantum Chemistry Based on Fragmentation

WIREs Computational Molecular Science, Volume 15, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
This review introduces a new open‐source Python framework for rapid validation and prototyping of fragment‐based quantum chemistry methods, designed to be easy to deploy and modify by non‐experts. It is based on a foundation of the generalized many‐body expansion, which can encompass numerous fragmentation methods, combined with energy screening that ...

Salt and Power: Making Sense of Loss in a Changing Climate through Scalar Politics

Antipode, Volume 57, Issue 6, Page 2079-2102, November 2025.
Abstract The question of what gets to be sustained or what disappears on the land under conditions of climate change is a process of “future‐making” that is deeply social and political. As changes in monsoon patterns and more erratic rainfall threaten Cambodia's only salt production, which relies on labour‐intensive sun‐drying, the spectre of loss ...
