Does conservation status predict research output?

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract The Endangered Species Act (ESA) of 1973 uses the best available science to protect threatened and endangered species, but limited knowledge of listed species can undermine conservation success. This study examined whether ESA‐listed species receive more peer‐reviewed publications than ecologically similar non‐listed species.

Island invertebrate responses to single‐ and multi‐species invasive rodent eradications

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Eradications of rodents on islands are a powerful tool for conservation, but rarely are the responses of invertebrates quantified post‐eradication, despite being the preferred prey of mice. Here we analyzed pre‐ and post‐eradication invertebrate survey results for two sub‐Antarctic islands where mice had recently been eradicated; Antipodes Island where

The Optimism Ignited by Nature‐Based Solutions: Mobilizing Public Support and Policy Champions in a “First‐Ever” Oyster Reef Restoration Project

Culture, Agriculture, Food and Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In recent years, a major push to restore oyster reefs has helped to revive the marine environments that were depleted in South Australia. Categorized as “Nature‐based Solutions” (NbS) that foster the return of biodiversity, these efforts have led to pockets of environmental optimism while countering an otherwise gloomy marine health forecast ...

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 ...
