Combined Effects of Acute Temperature Change and Elevated pCO2 on the Metabolic Rates and Hypoxia Tolerances of Clearnose Skate (Rostaraja eglanteria), Summer Flounder (Paralichthys dentatus), and Thorny Skate (Amblyraja radiata)

open access: yesBiology, 2019
Understanding how rising temperatures, ocean acidification, and hypoxia affect the performance of coastal fishes is essential to predicting species-specific responses to climate change.

Does parental angling selection affect the behavior or metabolism of brown trout parr?

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
The behavior of organisms can be subject to human‐induced selection such as that arising from fishing. Angling is expected to induce mortality on fish with bold and explorative behavior, which are behaviors commonly linked to a high standard metabolic ...

Examining thiosulfate-driven autotrophic denitrification through respirometry

open access: yesChemosphere, 2014
Anoxic respirometry was applied to characterize a sulfide-oxidizing nitrate-reducing (SO-NR) culture obtained from an anoxic biogas desulfurizing biotrickling filter treating high loads of H2S. Immobilized biomass extracted from the biotrickling filter was grown in a suspended culture with thiosulfate as electron donor to obtain the biomass growth ...

Compostable and Recyclable Baroplastic Triblock Copolymers Enable Low‐Energy Polymer Processing

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Baroplastic Poly(L‐lactide)‐block‐poly(ethylene glycol)‐block‐poly(L‐lactide) triblock copolymers enable ambient‐temperature processing under moderate pressure, reducing energy demand while preserving polymer integrity. The materials show rapid industrial compostability, effective chemical and physical recyclability, and compatibility with heat ...

Impacts on Metabolism and Gill Physiology of Darter Species (Etheostoma spp.) That Are Attributed to Wastewater Effluent in the Grand River

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
The effluent from municipal wastewater treatment plants is a major point source of contamination in Canadian waterways. The improvement of effluent quality to reduce contaminants, such as pharmaceuticals and personal care products, before being released ...

Multistressor Interaction of Perfluorooctane Sulfonate (PFOS) and Temperature in Two Estuarine Fish Species, Red Drum (Sciaenops ocellatus) and Sheepshead Minnow (Cyprinodon variegatus)

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), a perfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS), is characterized by a long, fluorinated carbon chain which makes it ideal for oil‐ and water‐repellent products but detrimental for the environment, where it persists and accumulates in organisms.

LRP1 immunotherapy enhances cardiomyocyte respiration by restricting cholesteryl ester accumulation in mitochondria

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research
Antibodies (Abs) targeting the P3 sequence (Gly1127-Cys1140) of LDL receptor-related protein 1 (anti-P3 Abs) inhibit the interaction between ApoB100 in cholesteryl ester (CE)-enriched lipoproteins and the CR9 domain in LDL receptor-related protein 1 ...

Evaluation Methodology, Numerical Verification and Retrofilling Procedure for Power Transformers to Ensure K‐Class Flame Retardancy and Environmentally Friendly

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With increasing demands for fire safety and environmental friendliness, retrofilling transformers with alternative insulating liquids has become a growing trend. However, retrofilling power transformers remains uncertain, as more residual mineral oil compromises K‐class flame retardancy, and its impact on environmental performance has yet to ...

Torpor‐assisted migration: Regular use of shallow torpor reduces rest‐phase energy expenditure for songbirds during migration

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Migrating songbirds regularly use shallow torpor (up to 98% of birds for some species) to save energy (up to 42%) during inactive periods. This Ruby‐crowned Kinglet Corthylio calendula that was captured after a spring snowstorm highlights the value of being able to save energy when encountering unfavourable conditions.
