Comparisons of Shark Catch Rates on Longlines Using Rope/Steel (Yankee) and Monofilament Gangions [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
During the months of June through September in 1991 and 1992, 71 shark longlines were fished in the Chesapeake Bight region ofthe U.S. mid-Atlantic coast with a combination of rope/steel (Yankee) and monofilament gangions.

Whole tissue imaging of cellular boundaries at sub‐micron resolutions for deep learning cell segmentation: Applications in the analysis of epithelial bending of ectoderm

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background To understand cellular morphology, biologists have relied on traditional optical microscopy of tissues combined with tissue clearing protocols to image structures deep within tissues. Unfortunately, these protocols often struggle to retain cell boundary markers, especially at high enough resolutions necessary for precise cell ...

Trends in marine species distribution models: a review of methodological advances and future challenges

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Correlative species distribution models (SDMs) are quantitative tools in biogeography and macroecology. Building upon the ecological niche concept, they correlate environmental covariates to species presence to model habitat suitability and predict species distributions.

Unveiling CLC as a Central Regulator of Allergic Rhinitis via the CLC‐CCL26/POSTN Axis: An Integrated Bioinformatics and Experimental Study

open access: yesFlavour and Fragrance Journal, EarlyView.
We unveil that CLC orchestrates the dual role of eosinophil recruitment via CCL26 and tissue remodelling via POSTN in allergic rhinitis, identifying it as a potential therapeutic target. ABSTRACT Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a chronic airway inflammation driven by a type 2 immune response, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying its persistence and tissue

Population size and survivorship for juvenile lemon sharks (Negaprion brevirostris) on their nursery grounds at a marine protected area in Brazil

open access: yesNeotropical Ichthyology
Sharks face a number of obstacles for surviving their first several years of life and many species occupy nursery areas. Although estimates of survival, particularly for young age classes, are essential for assessing, monitoring and effectively managing ...

Born to be free? Assessing the viability of releasing captive-bred wobbegongs to restock depleted populations

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2015
Large predatory fishes, such as sharks, play an important functional role within marine ecosystems. Restocking of depleted populations has been extensively studied for commercially or recreationally important teleost fish species; however, it has, to the
