ABSTRACT Bats have unique immunological characteristics among vertebrates. Understanding how the immune system responds during the life cycle of bat populations is crucial for grasping how their defenses against infection vary during critical life events.

Rethinking Plasticity in Sponges
This systematic review critiques the conceptual confusion caused by the indiscriminate use of “plasticity” in Porifera literature, revealing that researchers often overlook genetic variability and fail to distinguish between real‐time environmental responses and natural selection.

Low‐Intensity Precipitation Dominates Peninsular Spain (1961–2022)
Spatial analysis across Spain shows a shift in precipitation regimes (1961–2022) toward more frequent low‐intensity precipitation and reduced high‐intensity events, with localised increases in heavy precipitation along some coastal areas. This redistribution—captured through changes in precipitation frequency (RF) and volumetric contribution (RC ...

Optimizing germination and cultivation of edible halophytes using effluents from an IMTA system
Abstract BACKGROUND Halophytes offer nature‐based solutions to food insecurity and soil degradation, while their integration into integrated multi‐trophic aquaculture (IMTA) systems promotes circular economy practices. This study aimed to optimize the germination and cultivation of edible halophytic species, namely Limbarda crithmoides, Suaeda vera and

Abstract BACKGROUND The world population is projected to reach nearly 9.7 billion by 2050, significantly increasing the demand for novel and sustainable protein sources. Edible insects, such as Tenebrio molitor, emerge as promising alternatives due to their high nutritional value, but adult insects and frass are direct and abundant by‐products of this ...
