ABSTRACT Aim Intraspecific variation in functional traits may indicate adaptation to environmental gradients and is crucial to understanding species distributions and range dynamics. We tested the hypotheses that: (1) thermal performance of Littorina littorea follows a countergradient cline, reflecting compensation in northern individuals and (2) local

Long‐Term Mobility of a Harvested, Rocky‐Reef Gastropod
ABSTRACT Stocks of Turbo militaris (Turbinidae) are under increasing harvesting pressure, but management is currently hampered by data deficiency. Management decisions for rocky‐reef gastropod fisheries should consider long‐term species mobility, yet this is often poorly understood. Therefore, mark‐recapture was used to evaluate annual displacement and

Middle-out reasoning for synthesis and induction [PDF]
We develop two applications of middle-out reasoning in inductive proofs: Logic program synthesis and the selection of induction schemes. Middle-out reasoning as part of proof planning was first suggested by Bundy et al [Bundy et al 90a].

ABSTRACT This experiment utilized oceanic mollusks, including Oliva sayana, Babylonia japonica, and Conasprella bermudensis, to synthesize hydroxyapatite (HAp). Orthophosphoric acid was reacted with the powdered components of marine mollusks, resulting in spherical and nanorod HAp.

Abstract The Japanese turban snail Lunella coreensis is sensitive to ocean currents due to its short pelagic larval stage and moderate dispersal ability, making it an ideal model for studying genetic diversity shaped by paleoclimatic shifts. In this study, we analyzed the mitochondrial genes COI and 12S of museum samples collected from various coasts ...

ABSTRACT Turban snails (known as Gugumbal in Gumbainggir Country) are bioculturally important Sea Country molluscs distributed throughout south‐eastern Australia. Like most shallow water marine species, climate change is anticipated to result in poleward range shifts, or possibly even regional extinctions.
