Arctic lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) show evidence of seasonal acclimation of cardiac adrenergic sensitivity but not heat tolerance

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Many Arctic fishes experience prolonged periods of extreme cold and large thermal variation over both rapid and seasonal time scales which challenge critical physiological functions. In the central Canadian Arctic, we caught wild adult lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) acclimatized to winter and summer temperatures to determine the extent to ...

Marine migration influences mercury accumulation in anadromous Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus)

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Mercury (Hg) is a globally distributed toxic metal present in northern natural environments that biomagnifies in food webs and bioaccumulates in apex predator fish, such as Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus)—an iteroparous species with a circumpolar distribution. Arctic char exhibit a variety of life history types, with the migrating, anadromous

The Heterogeneous Regional Employment Effects of Environmental Policies

Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the effects of Environmental Policies—measured by the OECD Environmental Policy Stringency Index (EPS)—on employment in 349 regions across 26 countries from 1990 to 2020. We find that more stringent EPS have short‐term negative effects on regional employment, which disappear in the medium term.

Decadal Bowhead Whale Baleen Stable Isotope and Hormone Chronologies (1985–2010) Provide Insight Into Arctic Ecosystem Change

Global Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 3, September 2026.
Long‐term chronologies constructed from individual bowhead baleen plates reveal stable isotope declines consistent with regional Arctic food web or productivity changes superimposed on global anthropogenic C and N inputs, while relatively stable hormone concentrations over the same period provide no evidence of a concomitant increase in physiological ...
