Coupling Genetic and Demographic Data to Reveal Dispersal Processes in Emperor Penguins

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2025.
Dispersal is ubiquitous but dispersal rates, range, and behaviors remain difficult to measure. By developing new models combing demographic and genetic data, we propose to unravel species dispersal behaviors and apply our methodology to the emperor penguins, living in the most remote place on earth where measurements of dispersal are nonexistent.

Large‐Scale Ocean‐Atmosphere Interactions Drive Phytoplankton Accumulation in the Northern Antarctic Peninsula

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 130, Issue 3, March 2025.
Abstract The northern Antarctic Peninsula (NAP) region is a highly productive ecosystem that supports a large krill‐based food web. In summer 2006, the NAP region had substantially elevated phytoplankton biomass, with surface chlorophyll‐a concentrations that reached the greatest level during 2001–2023.

Functional and sensory properties of iron and folic acid fortified NABE-3 bean and silver fish composite instant flour

Discover Food
Despite the need for Iron and Folic acid (IFA) during critical stages of child development and gestation, there is observed persistence in deficiencies despite several interventions. This situation motivated a food-based approach using IFA-fortified NARO
