Habitat Suitability Modeling Predicts Two Migratory Groups of the Japanese Sardine, Sardinops melanostictus, in the Sea of Japan

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, Volume 35, Issue 2, Page 212-224, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The Japanese sardine, Sardinops melanostictus, is a major fishery resource in the Sea of Japan (SOJ) and East China Sea (ECS); however, recent research on suitable habitats and migration patterns of this fish in these seas is lacking. We aimed to identify the oceanographic conditions (temperature, chlorophyll‐a concentration, and sea surface ...

Gray Whale Energy Requirements

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Eastern North Pacific gray whales (Eschrichtius robustus) rely on energy obtained from Arctic feeding grounds to complete their 15,000–20,000 km annual round‐trip migration between feeding and breeding areas. However, quantitative estimates of their food requirements remain scarce. Using an age‐structured bioenergetics model incorporating life

Genomic Signatures and Demographic History of the Widespread and Critically Endangered Yellow‐Breasted Bunting

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 23, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Population declines may have long‐term genetic consequences, including genetic erosion and inbreeding depression, which could affect species' evolutionary potential and increase their risk of extinction. Small populations are more vulnerable to genetic threats than common species, but even species with large populations can also be at risk of ...
