The Irish Hydrometric Reference Network, Version 2.0
Reference hydrometric networks (RHNs) comprise high‐quality flow gauges with long reliable observational records from near‐natural catchments. Their primary role is for detecting changes in the water cycle, due to external drivers including climate change. Here we present an updated RHN for Ireland.

Performance Advantages of Labyrinth Weir
Weir is a very common structure across water courses to control flow and to release surplus water from water bodies. Simple straight weirs are less efficient compared to labyrinth weir where the weir length is increased by folds. In this research, experiments were conducted in the laboratory to find the increase in discharge due to labyrinth or ...

ABSTRACT A series of terminological, technical, conceptual, and statistical challenges present themselves when trying to study correlations between measures of performance abilities (what an animal can do) and behavioural traits (what an animal chooses to do).

This study investigates genomic differences among distinct morphotypes of Euterpe edulis in Espírito Santo (ES), Brazil, using a dataset of 5319 high‐quality SNPs. ABSTRACT The genomic knowledge of Euterpe edulis populations with morphological and genetic variations is relevant to species preservation, management, conservation, and improvement.

Comparison of Hydraulic Efficiency of Arched Non-linear Weirs in Plan Using GEP and SVM Neural Networks [PDF]
Non-linear weirs meanwhile economic advantages, have more passing flow capacity than linear weirs. These weirs have higher discharge efficiency with less free height upstream compared to linear weirs by increasing the length of the crown at a certain ...

The combined weir‐gate systems are commonly used in water resources projects, but their hydraulic responses become significantly more complicated in the presence of downstream obstacles such as dikes, and the statistically based treatment of their hydraulics has received little attention.

Host Co‐Occurrence and Population Size Explain Genetic Differentiation and Diversity in Seal Lice
ABSTRACT We studied the drivers of population‐genetic structuring and genetic diversity in specialist parasites based on whole‐genome resequencing data from 82 Echinophthirius horridus seal louse individuals sampled from 12 ecologically and behaviourally different phocine seal species, subspecies and populations across the Holarctic.

Plant Cognition—A Methodological Primer: Theories, Methods and Challenges
ABSTRACT Part I: What counts as cognition, and how can it be studied in organisms without nervous systems? The emerging field of plant cognition confronts these questions by integrating philosophy, plant science and comparative psychology. This article provides a methodological primer on the field.

Into the Deep: Origins and Evolution of Northeastern Pacific Ocean Tuna (Thunnus spp.) Fisheries
ABSTRACT People have had a profound influence on Earth's biodiversity for millennia, culminating in Anthropocene environmental degradation and the modern biodiversity crisis. While the scale and extent of people's long‐term influence on Earth's biodiversity in terrestrial and nearshore marine ecosystems are relatively well studied, there are ...
