Journal of Fish Biology, Volume 109, Issue 2, Page 693-714, August 2026.Abstract Methods using environmental nucleic acids have become highly effective for monitoring aquatic biodiversity, with an array of suitable use cases, including metrics for fisheries assessment. Traditional methods for assessing fish populations often rely on invasive techniques with limited spatial and temporal coverage.

7000 Years of Aboriginal Mining at Sugarloaf Hill in the Riverland Region of South Australia
Archaeology in Oceania, Volume 61, Issue 2, Page 277-311, July 2026.ABSTRACT Silcrete and chert are commonly represented in Aboriginal archaeological lithic assemblages across large parts of the southwestern Murray‐Darling Basin (MDB). In South Australia (SA), these materials were sourced from a series of quarries located along the incised course of the Murray River through the upper Riverland region.

Disasters, Volume 50, Issue 3, July 2026.Abstract This study investigates the claim that women are disproportionately more likely to die in disasters by reviewing existing data sources and compiling new datasets on sex‐differentiated disaster fatalities in the twenty‐first century. The analysis is structured by disaster type, covering geophysical, meteorological, climatological, hydrological,

Habitat preference of the Pacific Sand Lance (Ammodytes hexapterus) in the San Juan Channel in the fall: 2014 season and interannual comparison 2012-2014 [PDF]
, 2014 Previous studies have found that the Pacific Sand Lance prefer to bury into sediment that is mainly composed of coarse sand and low gravel. This study explored whether that was the case for sand lance buried in the sand wave field in the San Juan Channel

Fisheries Oceanography, Volume 35, Issue 4, Page 565-579, July 2026.ABSTRACT Small pelagic fish and other forage species are patchily distributed over space and time, resulting in variable foraging conditions experienced by their predators. The high‐resolution data necessary to understand the spatiotemporal structure of forage communities are challenging to collect with expensive fishery‐independent surveys, meaning ...

Fisheries and aquatic sciences, 2014 Abstract We investigate the effects of cryoprotectant mixtures on the quality of sand lance surimi (SLS) during storage at -30 o C. We moni-tored freeze-induced denaturation of myofibrillar protein in SLS and examined the texture profile of SLS gel. Freeze-induced dena-turation was assessed by evaluating SLS Ca +2 -ATPase activity.
