Morphological plasticity in the dentition of the lungfish Gnathorhiza from the Permian of Brazil: A population‐level geometric morphometric analysis

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Dental plates are pivotal in the lungfish paleontological record, constituting highly mineralized structures resilient to diagenetic processes. This study provides a detailed description and quantitative shape analysis of 95 newly discovered Gnathorhiza sp. dental plates from the Middle–Late Permian Corumbataí Formation, Brazil.

Mangrove-mudflat connectivity shapes benthic communities in a tropical intertidal system

Ecological Indicators, 2021
Understanding the connectivity among seascape habitats is an important emerging topic in marine ecology and coastal management. Mangroves are known to provide many ecosystem services such as coastal protection and carbon cycling, but their functional ...

Optimizing Strategies for Non‐Invasive Prospection of Settlements in the Intertidal Zone: A Case Study From the Centre of the Drowned Medieval Village of Tolsende (Scheldt Estuary, the Netherlands)

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Medieval and early modern drowned villages in the intertidal zone of the Scheldt estuary (the Netherlands) constitute intriguing yet largely understudied components of north‐western Europe's underwater cultural heritage. Despite their high archaeological potential as time capsules of past settlement landscapes, research has remained limited ...

When Nature Counts: Corporate Biodiversity Attention and Access to Bank Finance

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates whether corporate attention to biodiversity influences firms' access to bank loans, an overlooked question in the emerging biodiversity–finance literature. Using a novel, text‐based measure constructed from 446 biodiversity‐related keywords and applied to Chinese A‐share listed firms from 2000 to 2023, we show that ...

Testing for Burden in a Macroevolutionary System

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
Evolutionary changes in the fundamental components of the bivalve body plan are not restricted to the early part of their evolutionary history. ABSTRACT The traits defining organismal body plans are expected to acquire burden, approaching invariance as they accumulate characters that depend on them, developmentally and functionally.

Effects of replacing dietary black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) meal with fishmeal (FM) in diets for rabbitfish (Siganus sutor) reared in brackish water intertidal earthen ponds

Sustainable Aquatic Research
The effects of replacing dietary fishmeal (FM) with black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) meal in rabbitfish (Siganus sutor) diets were evaluated over 90 days in intertidal earthen ponds at Kibokoni, Kilifi Creek.

From Map Follower to Navigator: Archetypes of Environmental Impact Assessment

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental impact assessment (EIA) scholarship is commonly framed as a tension between efficiency and comprehensiveness paradigms. These paradigms describe a persistent tension but cannot explain how EIA operates through it. Drawing on social systems theory, this analysis traces that operation.
