Abstract This study aimed to investigate how exposure to elevated water temperature and metal concentration jointly affect the physiology of Amazonian fish. Aboard a research vessel in the Amazon, we evaluated the effects of water temperature (river T°C at 31.5°C and a + 4°C increase to 35.5°C) and of 3‐h copper (Cu) exposure (up to 600 μg/L) in ...

Does any fish scale of a fish have the same number of marks? A case study for two Mugilidae species
Abstract This study evaluates the difference in growth marks in scales from nine body areas of two Mugilidae species from the Gulf of Mexico: Mugil curema and Mugil cephalus. It addresses whether the different body areas show more (or fewer) marks, and which area(s) would be more useful in fish biology studies relying on mark analysis.

Some African Cyphostemma species evolved much larger genomes as they adapted to dry, rocky habitats. These expansions are linked to succulent traits and specialization on nutrient‐rich limestone outcrops. The findings show how climate‐driven aridification shaped plant evolution and highlight broader genome‐environment patterns across flowering plants ...

Abstract For the freshwater red algal order Batrachospermales, the number of plastid genomes available is relatively small compared to the number of genera. Fully assembled plastid genomes can provide insights into plastid evolution and crucial data for phylogenetic reconstruction.

Time‐Varying Dispersion Integer‐Valued GARCH Models
ABSTRACT We introduce a general class of INteger‐valued Generalized AutoRegressive Conditionally Heteroscedastic (INGARCH) processes by allowing simultaneously time‐varying mean and dispersion parameters. We call such models time‐varying dispersion INGARCH (tv‐DINGARCH) models.

Summary According to the enemy release hypothesis (ERH), the fitness of exotic plants and their capacity to become invasive in their area of introduction may partly be attributable to the loss of their natural enemies. Invasive species may also benefit from modifying soil attributes and thereby creating a positive soil–plant feedback.

Subjective Evaluation of Female Adult Body Fat Distribution: A Scoping Review
ABSTRACT Body fat distribution is a key indicator of obesity‐related disease risk, often assessed through objective anthropometric measurements. However, objective implementation at scale is limited by measurement variability, cost, and anthropometrist skill.

There is a close correlation between C‐VBQ scores and the cervical deep extensors, deep flexors, and overall paraspinal muscles relative cross‐sectional area (RCSA) and degree of fat infiltration (DFF). The C‐VBQ score is a comprehensive parameter reflecting the quality of cervical bone and paraspinal muscles.
