Marine Macroalgae as a Safe Healthy Food While Meeting Food Security Challenges Arising From Climate Changes

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Planned harvesting and processing of marine macroalgae could meet future global food needs and mitigate fuel‐originated carbon dioxide responsible for climate change. Microalgal foods are nutritious and safe. The utilization of macroalgae would avoid environmental problems arising from the release of overgrowing macroalgae caused by heatwaves, which ...

Synergistic Impacts of Co‐Exposure to Microplastics and Vibrio harveyi on the Immune and Stress Responses of the Big‐Belly Seahorse Hippocampus abdominalis

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
Synergistic effects of microplastic and Vibrio harveyi co‐exposure on big‐belly seahorse (Hippocampus abdominalis). Seahorses were exposed to microplastics (50 beads/L of 0.2 μm SMP and 1.0 μm LMP) and injected with V. harveyi (1 × 103 CFU/mL).

Tracking the Pulse of the Dunes: Seasonal Metabolic Responses of Liolaemus arambarensis to Climatic Variability

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Seasonal environmental fluctuations profoundly influence ectothermic vertebrates, regulating their physiology, metabolism, and life cycles. This study investigated the metabolic and morphometric seasonal dynamics of the subtropical sand lizard Liolaemus arambarensis, an endangered species endemic to the coastal dunes of southern Brazil.

Tropical field stations yield high conservation return on investment

Conservation Letters
Conservation funding is currently limited; cost‐effective conservation solutions are essential. We suggest that the thousands of field stations worldwide can play key roles at the frontline of biodiversity conservation and have high intrinsic value.

Pooling information across sites and years to estimate bat fatalities at wind farms

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We compared complete pooling (CP), no pooling (NP), and partial pooling (PP) approaches for estimating detection probabilities and hence bat fatalities at wind farms. Partial pooling integrates information across sites and years, improving precision with sparse data while preserving site‐level variation.

Bridging data gaps: Evidence‐based population assessment for an endemic amphibian of conservation concern

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Plethodon welleri exhibits strong seasonal shifts in elevational activity with abundance and occupancy being linked to terrain characteristics. Despite historical habitat assumptions, P. welleri occurs in a broad range of forest types across a larger elevation gradient. Photo Credit to Maxwell Ramey.
