To converge or diverge? Phenological shifts driven by plant genome size and functional traits under nitrogen deposition and mowing

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Linkages between genome size (GS) and phenology underscore the diversification of functional traits, which are indicative of life‐history and resource acquisition strategies.

Movement patterns of winter flounder (Pseudopleuronectes americanus) in the southern Gulf of Maine: observations with the use of passive acoustic telemetry [PDF]

, 2010
Despite its recreational and commercial importance, the movement patterns and spawning habitats of winter flounder (Pseudopleuronectes americanus) in the Gulf of Maine are poorly understood. To address these uncertainties, 72 adult winter flounder (27–48

Abiotic variables drive different aspects of fish community trait variation and species richness across the continental United States

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Trait distributions provide insight into how niches overlap within a broader trait space. By integrating individual‐level trait observations from different communities, we can explore how facets of trait dimensionality vary across environmental conditions.

Transitions in the morphological features, habitat use, and diet of young-of-the-year goosefish (Lophius americanus) [PDF]

, 2007
This study was designed to improve our understanding of transitions in the early life history and the distribution, habitat use, and diets for young-of-the-year (YOY) goosefish (Lophius americanus) and, as a result, their role in northeastern U.S ...

New Frontiers in EU Trade Policy: Moving Beyond Conventional Trade Agreements

Global Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As the rules‐based international trading system faces stagnation and increasing unilateralism, the European Union's trade policy must evolve beyond conventional free trade agreements (FTAs). This article examines recent trends in EU trade agreements, highlighting not only their expanded scope to include areas such as digital trade ...

Managing the Threat of Subsidized Predators for a Threatened Shorebird

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Subsidized predators—native predators that have become more common due to human activities—challenge the persistence of many at‐risk prey species and require creative solutions beyond lethal predator control. In an 8‐year study, we placed small wire cages over western snowy plover nests that allow passage of plovers, but not their predators, and ...

Municipal Economic Development “Key Sectors”: Do Priorities Match Realities?

Canadian Public Administration, EarlyView.
Abstract This article explores whether municipal economic development priorities align with Canada's changing economy and workforce and whether these same priorities address the employment needs of municipalities' working‐age residents. Our analysis draws on census division and census subdivision data from the 2021 Canadian Census and our own original ...

Restoring Native Fisheries to Maine's Largest Watershed: The Penobscot River Restoration Project [PDF]

Journal of Contemporary Water Research & Education, 2006
Flowing from Mount Katahdin to the Gulf of Maine, the Penobscot River drains fully onethird of the state of Maine. It is the largest river within Maine and the second largest in New England. The headwaters, mainstem and tributaries, estuary and the Gulf of Maine form a dynamic ecosystem that was once fueled by vast native sea-run fisheries.
