From 'omics to otoliths: responses of an estuarine fish to endocrine disrupting compounds across biological scales. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) cause physiological abnormalities and population decline in fishes. However, few studies have linked environmental EDC exposures with responses at multiple tiers of the biological hierarchy, including population ...

Sex Ratio Selection and the Evolution of Environmental Sex Determination in Laboratory Populations of Menidia menidia [PDF]
Evolution, 1992 What happens when a population with environmental sex determination (ESD) experiences a change to an extreme environment that causes a highly unbalanced sex ratio? Theory predicts that frequency-dependent selection would increase the proportion of the minority sex and decrease the level of ESD in subsequent generations.

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Tidal wetland restoration is critical for reversing habitat loss and enhancing resilience under sea‐level rise and climate variability. Dutch Slough in the San Francisco Estuary served as a living laboratory for adaptive management.

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Novel ecosystems, where environmental conditions have been fundamentally altered from a historic norm, require nontraditional approaches to restoration. Suisun Marsh, located within California's San Francisco Estuary (SFE), is a novel, brackish water wetland complex, where managers have begun restoring tidal connectivity to ...

Direct and indirect parental exposure to endocrine disruptors and elevated temperature influences gene expression across generations in a euryhaline model fish [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Aquatic organisms inhabiting polluted waterways face numerous adverse effects, including physiological disruption by endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs). Little is known about how the temperatures associated with global climate change may influence the

Fisheries Management and Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 5, Page 1044-1056, October 2026.ABSTRACT In an effort to increase the relevancy of fish community data for management, we used fish community data to conduct a statewide assessment of Florida's freshwater fisheries resources and compare the relationships between environmental factors and freshwater fish communities over time.

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 5, Page 1176-1192, September 2026.ABSTRACT Ocean acidification (OA) remains a major and underexplored threat to marine fishes, particularly regarding reproductive physiology and early life stages (ELS). Although research over the past 15 years has documented diverse OA effects, substantial knowledge gaps persist.

Water pollution from swine factory farms poses a threat to endangered and threatened species
Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 7, July 2026.Abstract Factory farms, or concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs), generate millions of tons of manure each year in the United States. The storage, handling, and land application of this manure leads to air, water, and climate pollution, which disproportionately impacts low‐income communities of color and poses additional public health and ...

Adaptation to warm environments with a fast pace of life in a marine predatory snail
Ecological Monographs, Volume 96, Issue 2, May 2026.Abstract Understanding how latitudinal temperature variation shapes local adaptation of life‐history strategies is crucial for predicting future responses to warming. Contrasting predictive frameworks explain how growth and other life‐history traits may respond to differing selective pressures across latitude. However, these frameworks have rarely been

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Seagrasses suffer population decline when environmental stress exceeds physiological tolerance. In such instances, seagrass restoration can be successful if stressors are alleviated; however, many stressors cannot be addressed at a local scale. As such, seagrass restoration efforts often fail. In this study, we tested whether artificial oyster
