Identification of penaeid shrimp from Chilika Lake through DNA barcoding

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2018
Chilika Lake is one of the prolific habitats of shrimps in India and offers tons of commercial trading every year. The genetic diversity of penaeid shrimp species in this oldest and largest brackish water lagoon is unknown so far.

Data on the angular characteristics of the spiral structure of the narwhal tusk

open access: yesData in Brief, 2018
We studied morphometric features of the spiral structure of the narwhal tusk and show that angular parameters of the arcs of the cementum layer determine the pattern of the spiral structure of the tusk.

Stomach temperature of narwhals (Monodon monoceros) during feeding events [PDF]

open access: yesAnimal Biotelemetry, 2014
Information on the feeding rate by free-ranging odontocetes is necessary for assessing potential conflicts with fishing activities. One way of obtaining a proxy for feeding events in homeothermic predators is to measure stomach temperature, which drops during prey ingestion.

Alphaherpesvirus infection in a free-ranging narwhal Monodon monoceros from Arctic Canada

open access: yesDiseases of Aquatic Organisms, 2023
We report the detection of an alphaherpesvirus infecting an adult female narwhal Monodon monoceros captured live during a tagging project in Tremblay Sound, Nunavut, Canada, in August 2018. The individual had 2 open wounds on the dorsum but appeared in good overall health.

2D to 3D: Exploring Variation of Niche Dimensionality Across Consumers in a Coastal Arctic Ecosystem and Implications on Interpretation

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
We compared the traditional two‐dimensional (2D: δ13C and δ15N) isotopic niches with a three‐dimensional (3D: δ13C, δ15N, and δ34S) framework to evaluate changes in niche size and overlap. Overall, invertebrates and benthic‐associated species showed greater changes in niche size and reduced overlap using the 3D approach.

Diverging Food Web Functioning Around Southampton Island, Nunavut: The Influence of Primary Production Supply and Bathymetry

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Southampton Island hosts two distinct benthic sub‐webs, north and south. North is deeper, phytoplankton‐driven; South is shallower, more ice‐algae driven. North benthos: bottom‐up control, four trophic levels including apex predators. South benthos: walrus top‐down control, trophic truncation to three levels.

Navigating Cetacean Mitochondrial Genome Data: Identifying Coverage and Deficiencies in Public Repositories

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 3, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Genetic reference databases underpin a wide range of molecular approaches used to study cetacean biodiversity, including environmental DNA (eDNA), yet their reliability depends critically on data completeness, taxonomic accuracy, and metadata quality.

Effect of temperature and salinity on the hatching of eggs and larval development of sugpo, Penaeus monodon [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
only.Incubation of Penaeus monodon eggs and rearing of different larval stages were undertaken at nine temperature-salinity combinations. The eggs, nauplii, zoea and mysis from one spawner kept as stock culture at ambient temperatures of 26-30°C and ...
