Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Lacustrine forms of Triglopsis from North American and European lakes are at different stages of evolution, making them a suitable model for testing hypotheses about evolutionary patterns and rates. An integrative analysis of morphological, genetic, and biological adaptations occurring in lacustrine forms of the genus Triglopsis was carried out.

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.First multi‐season analysis linking cumulative duration and habitat selection to human modification in two declining shorebirds. A total of 160 cumulative duration was identified at four periods for two species. Longer cumulative duration correlate with higher human modification in coastal wetlands during northward migration and winter.

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Seasonal and regional dietary variation in Przewalski's gazelle was linked to coordinated changes in gut microbiota, functional pathways, and fecal metabolites. Winter diets featured Poaceae, Cyperaceae, and Iridaceae, whereas summer diets shifted toward forb families.

A validated 3D point‐cloud analysis workflow for the creation of seagrass canopy height models
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Seagrasses support highly productive ecosystems in both temperate and tropical waters and provide essential ecosystem services. Despite their importance, the vertical structure of seagrasses (i.e. the canopy) remains poorly characterised at the microscale, even though it is a strong predictor of ecological processes that influence both ...

Enhanced fish detection sensitivity in aquatic systems using environmental RNA
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Environmental RNA (eRNA) can potentially augment the biological monitoring ability of the established environmental DNA (eDNA) application in conservation. Despite faster degradation, environmental RNA could offer unique advantages: it may help reduce the legacy signal compared to eDNA, provide insights into physiological status through gene ...
