Flying Fish Habitat and Co‐Occurrence With Seabirds in the Northern Gulf of Mexico
ABSTRACT Flying fish (family Exocoetidae) play an important role in marine food webs, linking sub‐surface and aerial predators. The association of seabirds with sub‐surface predators in subtropical and tropical regions through facilitated foraging events is a well‐known phenomenon and is sometimes used to identify fishing grounds for flying fish ...

Woodification of polygonal meshes
An evolving polygonal mesh based on stem's tree growth coupled with a physical simulation of bark's cracking is presented. This process is denominated woodification. Whereas previous approaches use a fixed resolution voxel grid, woodification is built on the deformable simplicial complex representation, which robustly simulates growth with adaptive ...

Seabirds are important sentinels of climate and ecosystem change, but many breeding populations are difficult to monitor because of the remoteness and inaccessibility of their colonies, and the sometimes cryptic nature of their nests and burrows. Large‐scale monitoring of seabird populations at sea can also be used to estimate population trends and ...

The costs and healing rates of minor injuries in neonatal reef sharks
Abstract Elasmobranch fishes (i.e., sharks, skates, and rays) exhibit remarkable wound‐healing capabilities and consistently maintain a high capacity for tissue regeneration throughout their lives. This high capacity for wound healing may be particularly important for neonatal elasmobranchs that are still developing their immune system. However, little

Abstract Hatchery practices are a critical tool of fisheries management to supplement diminished fish populations and restore extirpated species. However, stocking programs that successfully restore self‐sustaining populations are rare. Unintentional artificial selection and domestication of hatchery‐reared fish are potential limitations to the success

Series of images of the dermal ossicle of Antarctopelta oliveroi (Dinosauria, Ankylosauria) illustrating (A) the 3D distribution of the vascular mesh in the ossicle; (B) the large volume of the numerous cells in periphery; (C) the radial orientation of the fiber bundles in the main core of the osteoderm (called basal plate); (D) the orthogonal ...
