Shining new light on mammalian diving physiology using wearable near-infrared spectroscopy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Investigation of marine mammal dive-by-dive blood distribution and oxygenation has been limited by a lack of non-invasive technology for use in freely diving animals.

When ‘Yes’ Means No: Understanding Infiltration as Refusal of Cultural Heritage Research in Palestine

open access: yesTransactions of the Institute of British Geographers, Volume 51, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper reconceptualises Palestinian infiltration—historically associated with clandestine border‐crossing after the 1948 Nakba—as a contemporary mode of research refusal within heritage research conducted under settler‐colonial conditions. Bringing scholarship on Palestinian infiltration into dialogue with literature on refusal, it argues ...

Crystal structure of a tRNA acceptor‐stem mimic at 1.94 Å resolution

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section F, Volume 82, Issue 2, Page 57-65, February 2026.
This paper reports the structure solution of an RNA complex using anomalous scattering.Despite the theoretical advantages of phosphorus single‐wavelength anomalous diffraction (P‐SAD) for nucleic acid phasing, its application remains limited due to high atomic displacement parameters and an unfavourable ratio of unique reflections to anomalous ...

Germination speed modulates priority effects: Evidence from a large‐scale field study

open access: yesEcology, Volume 107, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Priority effects, where species that arrive first influence later arriving species, are often considered in terms of seed arrival time. However, the timing of seedling emergence may play a more critical role, as this defines when plants start interacting. Further, initial seed density may also be important, allowing early‐arriving species with

Individuality in harp seal, Phoca groenlandica, pup vocalizations

open access: yesAnimal Behaviour, 2004
In gregarious breeders, parents often use individually stereotyped vocalizations as a cue to relocate offspring. Harp seals aggregate in large colonies on pack ice during the whelping season. During the 11-day lactation period, females alternate between periods at sea and attending their pup. If they use vocal cues in the relocation process, individual

Hummingbird Feeders Can Provide eDNA for Detection of Nectar‐Feeding Bats

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 1, January–February 2026.
This study monitors nectar‐feeding bats (Leptonycteris nivalis, Leptonycteris yerbabuenae, and Choeronycteris mexicana) through eDNA swabs of hummingbird feeders collected by citizen scientists. Using novel qPCR assays, we successfully detected L. yerbabuenae and C. mexicana in a grand majority of samples. Previously only known to occur in the U.S.

Angiotensin II and Aldosterone Increase with Fasting in Breeding Adult Male Northern Elephant Seals (Mirounga angustirostris) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The renin‐angiotensin‐aldosterone system (RAAS) appears to contribute significantly to osmoregulation of fasting northern elephant seal (Mirounga angustirostris) pups; however, RAAS has not been characterized in fasting adult seals. Therefore, this study
