Solving the woolly mammoth conundrum: amino acid 15N-enrichment suggests a distinct forage or habitat [PDF]
Understanding woolly mammoth ecology is key to understanding Pleistocene community dynamics and evaluating the roles of human hunting and climate change in late Quaternary megafaunal extinctions. Previous isotopic studies of mammoths’ diet and physiology

What does the occurrence of Sporormiella (Preussia) spores mean in Australian fossil sequences? [PDF]
Understanding the loss of the final few species of Australian megafauna is beset by a paucity of data on human arrival, well-provenanced megafauna, human/megafauna population range and distribution (coexistence and interaction), and the range, scale and ...

Lack of detectable chemosynthesis at a sponge dominated subarctic methane seep
We used high-resolution imagery within a Geographic Information System (GIS), free gas and porewater analyses and animal bulk stable isotope measurements to characterize the biotic and abiotic aspects of the newly discovered Vestbrona Carbonate Field ...

Santa Elina, Mato Grosso, site ancien au centre de l’Amérique du Sud
Due to its geographical location and its Pleistocene-era antiquity, the Santa Elina rock shelter renews the analysis of prehistoric settlements in South America. In the mountains where the shelter is hidden, Pleistocene men hunted a Glossotherium, 27,000

Climate Change Will Re-draw the Map for Marine Megafauna and the People Who Depend on Them
Climate change is expected to dramatically alter the distribution of many marine megafauna, impacting the people and economies that depend upon them. We build on the recent literature by developing a framework to describe the effects these changes will ...

Using Drone Footage to Analyze the Effect of Diver Presence on Juvenile Manta Ray Behavior
Manta ray tourism has become a multi-million-dollar industry proposed as a conservation tool in recent decades; however, its impacts remain unclear. We use drones and Markov models to quantify the effects of diver presence on a juvenile population of the

Drone-Based Assessment of Marine Megafauna off Wave-Exposed Sandy Beaches
The wave-impacted waters off exposed sandy beaches support marine megafauna, including dolphins, whales, sharks, rays and turtles. To characterise variation in megafaunal assemblages in this challenging habitat, we used drone-based remote sensing to ...
