Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sargassum inundation of Caribbean and American shorelines is a growing environmental hazard. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and ammonia (NH3) produced by decomposing Sargassum could be involved in airway obstruction and bronchial inflammation. The study was undertaken to evaluate the effects of exposure to H2S and NH3 gases emitted during Sargassum ...

Male-Biased Dispersal Leads to Expansion After Decline: The Hokkaido Brown Bear (<i>Ursus arctos</i>) Population Rebounds Post-Last Glacial Period. [PDF]
Ecol EvolSex‐biased dispersal potentially underpins the genetic structural mismatch in genetic structure between differently inherited genetic loci. To understand how such a mismatch has formed, we conducted genetic analysis of the brown bear in Hokkaido, Japan, with significant genetic differences between maternally and paternally inherited loci. We found that

Apex predators exploit advantageous snow conditions across hunting modes
Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.Advantageous snow conditions—in terms of snow depth and density—are among the most important features of the winter landscape for two apex predators, regardless of hunting strategy. In a warming climate, the knock‐on effects of a diminishing snowpack may reduce the hunting success of multiple large carnivore species.

Archaeometry, EarlyView.Abstract Soils that contain swelling clay minerals (e.g., montmorillonite) expand and contract during wetting and drying, causing movement within the soil profile. This process, known as argilliturbation, can alter artefact distributions, destroy stratigraphy and complicate the interpretation of archaeological deposits.
