Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study explores the interaction of organisational culture, corporate social responsibility (CSR) and Indigenous values in Aotearoa‐New Zealand's fishing industry, focusing on Māori‐owned and non–Māori‐owned companies. It reveals how Māori values shape company culture and how CSR aligns with them. Using Hofstede's cultural dimensions theory,

Assessing the Presence, Pattern, and Environmental Correlates of Seasonal Skin Thickening in Anurans
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Histological sections, like that of the ventral pectoral skin of Lithobates pipiens, were measured to assess variation in skin thickness throughout the year in three North American anuran species. After correcting for individual body size, we test whether skin thickness changes throughout the year and which factors (environment or life history) explain

Sex‐Specific Control and Incomplete Matings: Sperm Removal Behavior in a Bush Cricket Species
Ethology, EarlyView.In this study, we investigated which sex influences the duration of sperm removal behaviour (SRB) in the ornate bush cricket, Metaplastes ornatus. Female traits showed a weak effect on SRB duration, and lighter females mated more frequently. Frequent unsuccessful mating terminations shortened SRB indicating high level of sexual conflict.

“We know nothing except fishing”: Fishing bans under China’s ecological civilisation
Geographical Research, Volume 64, Issue 1, February 2026.The slogan on the photo reads, “Banning fishing for now will benefit fishery forever”. The ten‐year Fishing Ban in China’s Yangtze River is unprecedented in scale and intensity. This article uncovers the fishing ban through the narrative of ecological civilisation and its impact on retired fisherpeople.

Effect of mesh size on baited trap catch composition for noble crayfish (Astacus Astacus)
Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2014 Minimum size is a common management regulation in noble crayfish (Astacus astacus) fisheries. The most used catching method baited traps, catch crayfish down to 50 mm total length (TL).

Warming and latitude shape the non-consumptive effects of native and invasive alien crayfish predators on damselfly prey [PDF]
NeoBiotaThere is increasing concern that the effects of biological invasions may be magnified by other human-induced global changes. Here, we compare the non-consumptive effects imposed by invasive vs.

Microplastic Pollution in Aquaculture: Challenges and Mitigation
Water and Environment Journal, Volume 40, Issue 1, Page 3-20, February 2026.ABSTRACT Microplastics (MPs) have gained significant attention due to their potential environmental threat. This paper addresses MPs contamination in aquaculture, a critical concern for food safety and public health. The extensive use and disposal of plastic products in aquaculture, like netting materials, pose a significant threat to aquatic life ...

INTERACTION BETWEEN NATIVE AND ALIEN SPECIES OF CRAYFISH IN AUSTRIA: CASE STUDIES
Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2002 In Austria, three indigenous crayfish species occur: the noble crayfish (Astacus astacus), the stone crayfish (Austropotamobius torrentium), and the white-clawed crayfish (Austropotamobius pallipes).

Growth performance of Noble Crayfish Astacus astacus in recirculating aquaculture systems [PDF]
Aquaculture International, 2014 There is growing interest in using recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) to raise noble crayfish Astacus astacus a valuable and once plentiful food species in Europe, now a highly endangered species. The growth and survival of A. astacus was compared in growth trials in RAS and open-pond systems (OPS) over a period of 2 months.

Zipping up the Synaptonemal Complex: Pathways to Homologous Chromosome Synapsis
BioEssays, Volume 48, Issue 1, January 2026.The synaptonemal complex (SC) is a conserved protein structure that assembles between homologous chromosomes during meiosis. Here, we review pathways promoting homologous synapsis across model organisms, examining coordination with homolog pairing and recombination, spatiotemporal regulation of SC assembly, and the conserved molecular modules coupling ...
