Abstract In teleost fishes, cortisol is the major corticoid and has both glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid actions. However, how fish tissues discriminate between these distinct corticosteroid actions is unclear. In mammals, the major factors responsible for intracellular corticosteroid regulation are glucocorticoid receptors (grs) and the ...

Abstract Effective species conservation and management requires comprehensive biomonitoring, enhanced by combining traditional and newer methodologies, such as environmental DNA (eDNA) analyses. A seasonal pulse of spawning adult Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) was detected by normalised eDNA 12S reads from metabarcoding, which facilitated estimation of ...

Abstract Sea trout Salmo trutta m. trutta L. has high socioeconomic and ecological importance in the Atlantic region; therefore, stocking hatchery‐reared fish is widely practiced for stock enhancement and recovery of wild populations. In this study, fecundity of wild and stocked hatchery‐reared sea trout sampled from the Łeba River (southern Baltic Sea

Non‐native pink salmon Oncorhynchus gorbuscha carcasses benefit native benthic macroinvertebrates
Abstract The invasion of the North Atlantic by pink salmon Oncorhynchus gorbuscha has raised concerns regarding their impact on coastal rivers. Although the influence of marine‐derived nutrients from returning adult O. gorbuscha on rivers in their native range has received much attention, the ecological consequences of invasive O.

Does the Phillips Curve Lie Down as We Age?
Abstract Using microlevel data, we present evidence that older individuals are less willing to substitute across varieties of goods. We estimate the elasticity of substitution for different age groups and find that the youngest cohort (aged 25–34) exhibits a higher elasticity of substitution compared to the oldest group (65+).

When biology meets materials science – Interdisciplinary applications of electron microscopy
Abstract Research at the interface between biology and materials science creates challenges for electron microscopists. Everything from the sample preparation to the choice of imaging and analytical techniques and the interpretation of the resulting data refuses to sit comfortably within the domain of one discipline or the other.
