Spatial distribution and diet of larval snailfishes (Liparis fabricii, Liparis gibbus, Liparis tunicatus) in the Canadian Beaufort Sea

Oceanologia, 2016
SummaryThis paper presents information on diet and distribution of larval snailfishes from the genus Liparis on the Canadian Beaufort Sea Shelf. In this study, 153 larval snailfishes of three species, Liparis fabricii, L. gibbus and L. tunicatus, were collected during 4 summer cruises (2003–2005, 2007). The majority of the larvae were either in flexion

IUCN Red List Regional Assessment of the Flora of Niue Utilising Indigenous Local Knowledge and Botanical Information

Journal of the Royal Society of New Zealand, Volume 56, Issue 2, April 2026.
A regional assessment of the indigenous vascular plants of Niue is presented using the IUCN Red List criteria. The assessment was undertaken during a community workshop that drew on the indigenous local knowledge and scientific information. The assessment comprised 197 named taxa and 8 indeterminate entities, with 4 (2.0%) taxa assessed as Extinct and ...

Modality Matters: Intact and Enhanced Memory Skills in Children From High‐Stress Environments

Cognitive Science, Volume 50, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Although adverse ontogenetic environments are associated with potential impairments in children's memory, recent research suggests that individuals can develop specialized skills to navigate such settings. We conducted a study on short‐term memory (STM) and working memory (WM) among 357 children (176 females, Mage = 8.23 years, SDage = 1.49 ...

Movement patterns of large juvenile loggerhead turtles in the Mediterranean Sea: Ontogenetic space use in a small ocean basin

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Mechanisms that determine how, where, and when ontogenetic habitat shifts occur are mostly unknown in wild populations. Differences in size and environmental characteristics of ontogenetic habitats can lead to differences in movement patterns, behavior ...

New Constraints on the Calabrian Arc (Central Mediterranean) Geodynamics: High‐Resolution Imaging of Lithospheric and Upper Mantle Discontinuities From P and S Receiver Functions

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract The Calabrian Arc subduction system (Central Mediterranean) is characterized by a deep and narrow (200 km) slab. Addressing the poorly understood link between shallow and deep mantle structures, we present the first high‐resolution mapping of crustal and upper mantle discontinuities across the Calabrian Arc and Southern Tyrrhenian basin.

Comparison of Environmental DNA Metabarcoding and Trawl Data Highlights Gear Selectivity of Marine Demersal Fish Surveys on the Faroese Plateau

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
The study compared trawl and eDNA metabarcoding of demersal fish communities in an open ocean environment around the Faroe Islands. eDNA provided a comparable assessment of demersal species biomass and revealed additional spatial information on keystone species known to be under‐sampled by demersal trawls due to size and behavioral traits.
