Altered photoperiod affects behaviour in a key fish grazer, the thinlip grey mullet, Chelon ramada

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The aim of this study is to address experimentally the immediate impacts of an alteration of the photoperiod, simulating an extreme artificial light pollution, on the behaviour and stress of a key grazer fish common in temperate coastal ecosystems in Europe, the thinlip grey mullet, Chelon ramada.

SynapTrack: An automated tool for synapse quantification

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Reliable synapse quantification remains challenging, particularly in high‐throughput fluorescence imaging workflows. Here we present SynapTrack, a fully automated FIJI/ImageJ‐based tool for quantifying synapses in cultured neurons and brain tissue sections with minimal user intervention.

Human dissection and comparative anatomy: Archaeological evidence for nineteenth‐century anatomical practice at University College London

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Excavation at University College London revealed more than 8700 human skeletal fragments representing at least 38 individuals, alongside over 800 animal remains. Features consistent with dissection, specimen preparation and curation provide evidence for the use of human and animal material in nineteenth‐century anatomical education, offering rare ...

Membrane Lipid Remodeling Strategies Regulate Fluidity for Acute Temperature Adaptation in Oysters

Evolutionary Applications
Extreme climatic temperature stress induced by global warming poses a severe threat to the survival of marine invertebrates. The plasma membrane functions as a natural barrier and serves as the first responder to ambient temperature through dynamic ...

Understanding Online Meaning‐Making: Normativity, Polycentricity, and Memetic Communication Through a Chronotopic‐Scalar Lens

Journal of Sociolinguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article investigates memetic interaction as an illustrative example of complex polycentric online communication. Using a chronotopic‐scalar framework, it offers a theorized account of how online (inter)action works, how it is guided by (perceptions of) normativities, and how it is in dialogue with the “offline.” Specifically, I focus on ...

Oysters castles at low tide

, 2017
Oyster castles at a shoreline area on Beach Road at Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge. Native oyster populations produce baby oysters, called spat, which swim and settle on the concrete castles and cover them with live oysters.

Identifying thermally tolerant bull kelp (Nereocystis luetkeana) source populations for restoration under climate change

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Kelp forests are declining in many parts of the world due to climate change and other stressors. Restoration is one solution to return kelp forests to places where they have been lost, yet continually warming oceans may necessitate the identification of thermally tolerant strains to facilitate the long‐term success of kelp restoration.

Periodontal Salutogenesis: Why Are Some People Resistant to Oral Microbial Dysbiosis and Destructive Inflammation?

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Emerging evidence suggests that periodontal health is not simply the absence of disease, but the result of a dynamic interaction between biological resilience, healthy lifestyles, adaptive coping mechanisms, and supportive environments. This results in a strong sense of coherence, which is not only a psychological state but also a biological state ...

That sinkin’ feeling: Environmentally induced distress on a disappearing island

Medical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Residents of Tangier Island, Virginia, a subsiding island in the Chesapeake Bay, embody psychosocial dimensions of environmental change. Analysis of ethnographic data shows islanders’ experiences and articulations of anxiety, panic, and despair as “that sinkin’ feeling,” resulting from the stress of living with the long‐term threat of imminent

Effects of Cornstarch and Dextrose on Oysters

, 1978
The growth and fattening of the American oyster, Crassostrea virginica (Gmelin, 1791), has long been of interest to oyster biologists since the market value of oysters is directly related to the quantity and quality of "meat" obtained per bushel ( = 35.2
