Early‐Life Telomere Length Negatively Covaries With Brood Size and Father Age, and Predicts Long‐Term Survival in Male Barn Swallows (Hirundo rustica)

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
In barn swallows, nestlings raised in larger broods or by older social fathers have shorter telomeres, and those with longer telomeres tend to live longer, suggesting that early‐life conditions may shape individual lifespan through telomere dynamics. ABSTRACT Parental decisions on breeding, such as brood size and timing of reproduction, influence the ...

Downstream Passage Performance of European Silver Eels (Anguilla anguilla): The Importance of Phenotypic Variation and Rack Design

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
During their spawning migration, European silver eels frequently encounter hydropower facilities where successful downstream passage is essential for the conservation of this critically endangered species. In this study, we evaluated how three angled rack designs and individual behavioral variation influenced downstream passage success in large‐scale ...

The B.C. salmon farming industry

, 1988
Oyster and trout farming have a much longer history, but it is salmon farming that has raised the profile of aquaculture on the West Coast. Salmon farming has had a brief but dramatic history.

Biogeochemical, sedimentological and dinoflagellate‐based reconstruction of the Holocene palaeoenvironment of the east Limfjord, Denmark

Boreas, EarlyView.
To assess how the eastern part of the Limfjord system has changed over the Holocene, relative to the wider Limfjord and western Baltic region, a sedimentary succession spanning c. 9600–150 cal. a BP was collected from Nibe Bredning, near Sebbersund, from a shallow coastal inlet along the eastern connection between the Limfjord and the Kattegat (north ...

MODELING PRODUCTION RISK WITH A TWO-STEP PROCEDURE [PDF]

This study deals with modeling of production risk by means of a two-step procedure. In contrast to earlier studies of production risk, we do not immediately adopt restrictive functional forms for the risky production technology.

Dispersal, source and glass chemistry of a third tephra unit within Iceland's Settlement Layer

Boreas, EarlyView.
Tephra layers may be studied to understand the dynamics and sequence of past explosive volcanism. In Iceland, the distinctive Settlement Layer (AD ~877) underlies almost all archaeological evidence for the Norse Settlement and is preserved in soils across Iceland and as cryptotephra overseas.

Dietary melatonin and its benefits on cardiovascular disease

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of mortality globally, with a disproportionate burden in low‐ and middle‐income countries. Melatonin, a hormone primarily produced by the pineal gland, exhibits notable antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties that may confer cardiovascular benefits.
