Corpses as Repositories of Information and Funerals as Information Centres: Why Natural Selection Favours the Bereaved

Ethology, EarlyView.
Corpses are repositories of information about the cause of death. The distress of the bereaved acts as an honest signal drawing conspecifics to the body, enabling them to learn quickly about the death, adapt their behaviour, and spread knowledge of threats across multiple social levels.

Characterization of dermatan sulfate and chondroitin sulfate profiles during brain regeneration in Styela plicata

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Adult ascidians are capable of regenerating their entire brains following injury, and glycosaminoglycans have been shown to either promote or inhibit neuritogenesis. In this study, dermatan 2,6‐disulfate (D2,6S) was identified as the predominant complex carbohydrate in the ascidian brain.

Examining the Impact of Derelict Pots on Blue Crab (Callinectes sapidus) Catch and Harvest Within a Recreational Fishery

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Derelict fishing gear can negatively affect marine ecosystems through mortality in coastal environments. This study explored the impact of derelict and active crab pots on recreational blue crab (Callinectes sapidus) catch rates and landings in a Mid‐Atlantic estuary by deploying experimental pots in four habitat strata within three sections ...

Investigating the Dynamics of Sex‐Structured Stock Assessment Models Under Sexual Size Dimorphism

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The integration of separate sexes in stock assessment models represents an advancement towards more realistic modeling of interactions between fisheries and target species. However, increased model complexity can also introduce additional uncertainty into the modeling process.

SC‐550: A Sintered Calcite Reference Material for In Situ U‐Pb Geochronology

Geostandards and Geoanalytical Research, EarlyView.
Key Points New calcite reference material (SC‐550) produced by high‐temperature and high‐pressure sintering of nano‐particulate powder from a microbial limestone. Homogeneous U content (2.3 ± 0.4 μg g‐1) and U‐Pb isotope ratios (< 0.6% RSD for 207Pb/206Pb; < 3% RSD for 238U/206Pb).
