How Marine Megabenthos Fauna Responds to River Discharge and Artificial Flood in Large River Estuary
The artificial flood reshaped the geographical distribution of megabenthic fauna in the estuarine area in a short time, mainly as a result of the dramatic changes in seawater salinity and nutrients caused by flow pulse. An eco‐friendly discharge management of the Yellow River is needed to weaken the impact. ABSTRACT Estuaries are ecologically sensitive

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Foundation species, such as seagrasses, trees, and corals, form the biotic basis for many ecosystems. They engineer local habitats and can support many faunal species through trophic (e.g. providing feeding grounds) or non‐trophic (e.g.

Diversity and function of fluorescent molecules in marine animals
ABSTRACT Fluorescence in marine animals has mainly been studied in Cnidaria but is found in many different phyla such as Annelida, Crustacea, Mollusca, and Chordata. While many fluorescent proteins and molecules have been identified, very little information is available about the biological functions of fluorescence.

Past materials, past minds: The philosophy of cognitive paleoanthropology
Abstract The philosophy of cognitive paleoanthropology involves three related tasks: (1) asking what inferences might be drawn from the paleontological and archaeological records to past cognition, behavior and culture; (2) constructing synthetic accounts of the evolution of distinctive hominin capacities; (3) exploring how results from cognitive ...
