Swimming Upriver? Exploring the Sources of Freshwater and Marine Fish in Military Diet in Sixteenth‐ to Nineteenth‐Century Northeastern North America

open access: yesInternational Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Atlantic cod were caught in large numbers and shipped from fishing stations in North America to Europe and the Caribbean, and this has been frequently studied zooarchaeologically; however, the exchange of cod and other fish into interior North America has received less study.

Regional landscape differences lead to contrasts in the strength of environmental sorting among crustacean zooplankton metacommunities

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Processes underlying metacommunity structuring are important for understanding species tracking of environmental change at a landscape scale. Species' functional traits more closely reflect their ecological roles than taxonomy, therefore, adopting a functional approach allows us a better understanding of metacommunity structuring.

Interplanetary frontiers: terraforming from an invasion science perspective

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
The pursuit of a multi‐planetary existence represents one of humanity's greatest frontiers. If applied justly, it offers an opportunity to extend its civilization's lifespan amid escalating sustainability crises on Earth. One approach increasingly gaining traction is terraforming, a hitherto theoretical ecological and evolutionary experiment revolving ...

Continental accumulation of fads2 copy numbers allows sticklebacks to thrive across a diversity of nutritional landscapes

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Nutrients, including vital organic compounds, vary in availability across ecosystems, with the potential to act as a source of selection for traits that increase nutrient acquisition and biosynthesis. Compared to freshwaters, marine ecosystems are richer in the omega‐3 long‐chain polyunsaturated fatty acid (n‐3 LC‐PUFA) docosahexaenoic acid (DHA ...

Multitrophic alpha and beta diversity of lake plankton across Canada

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Anthropogenic environmental changes impact freshwater biodiversity globally. While biodiversity assessments in freshwater environments have traditionally focused on individual groups of organisms or trophic levels, considering patterns of ‘multitrophic biodiversity' across the food web provides a more comprehensive view of anthropogenic impacts and ...

‘They are not predators: They are a higher power’—Relational values and principles framing human–predator relationship in Noongar Country, Southwestern Australia

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Human–predator coexistence presents urgent conservation challenges that demand approaches extending beyond mere conflict mitigation. Indigenous knowledge systems, though historically marginalised by Western science, offer vital insights into ethical, sustainable relationships with nature.
