Abstract Climate change can act to facilitate or inhibit invasions of non‐native species. Here, we address the influence of climate change on control of non‐native common carp (hereafter, carp), a species recognized as one of the “world's worst” invaders across the globe. Control of this species is exceedingly difficult, as it exhibits rapid population

Avian cerebellar floccular fossa size is not a proxy for flying ability in birds [PDF]
Extinct animal behavior has often been inferred from qualitative assessments of relative brain region size in fossil endocranial casts. For instance, flight capability in pterosaurs and early birds has been inferred from the relative size of the ...

Comparative tests of ectoparasite species richness in seabirds [PDF]
Background: The diversity of parasites attacking a host varies substantially among different host species. Understanding the factors that explain these patterns of parasite diversity is critical to identifying the ecological principles underlying ...

Oyster reef restoration has become increasingly crucial due to global population declines. Intertidal oyster reefs provide essential foraging and loafing (resting) grounds to estuarine fauna. To reduce plastic pollution from traditional materials, biodegradable restoration materials have been introduced and are shown to support oyster recruitment ...

Migratory birds exhibit seasonal geographic range (hereafter, range) dynamics during the annual cycle. Few studies have examined how migratory birds select their habitats for range occupancy at the species level and space use at the individual level ...

Isotopic ordering in eggshells reflects body temperatures and suggests differing thermophysiology in two Cretaceous dinosaurs [PDF]
Our understanding of the evolutionary transitions leading to the modern endothermic state of birds and mammals is incomplete, partly because tools available to study the thermophysiology of extinct vertebrates are limited.
