Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract Mutvei's solution is a widely utilized standard staining method for revealing growth increments in biogenic carbonates; however, it is a slightly toxic, destructive approach with varying success across species groups. Therefore, there has been growing interest in finding non‐toxic, less destructive, and straightforward alternative techniques ...

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract Heart rate is a popular proxy of physiological responses, but the highly complex and variable cardiac data obtained from organisms such as marine invertebrates pose a major challenge to efficient and accurate data processing. To address this, we developed a novel, integrative algorithm for rapid and automated cardiac data processing.

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.Due to a broad spectrum of active ingredients, snail slime presents a variety of exciting physical properties and chemical reactivities. Especially in the role of the reduction‐ and stabilizing agent for the manufacturing of gold nanoparticles, its great potential is revealed. Utilising the proteins found in slime, Nanoparticle‐comprising hydrogels are

Modelling Motion‐Induced Signal Corruption in Steady‐State Diffusion MRI
Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Purpose Diffusion‐weighted steady‐state free precession (DW‐SSFP) is a diffusion imaging sequence achieving high SNR efficiency. A key challenge for in vivo DW‐SSFP is the sequence's severe motion sensitivity, currently limiting investigations to low or no motion regimes.

The Giant African Land Snail Achatina fulica (Bowdich, 1720) as a Candidate Species for Bioregenerative Life Support Systems [PDF]
Журнал Сибирского федерального университета: Серия Биология, 2015 The capability of snails to consume and convert inedible plant biomass and kitchen waste was tested. Inedible biomass of wheat and cabbage and also potato peels as a food were worse than lettuce, which is an ordinary feed for snails. In order to describe

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Studying goose domestication through archaeological finds has been challenging due to the similar skeletal morphology of the European domestic goose and its wild progenitor, the greylag goose (Anser anser). We analyzed stable carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N) isotopes from bone collagen of subfossil domestic and potentially domestic geese to ...

Tolerance to air exposure of the New Zealand mudsnail Potamopyrgus antipodarum (Hydrobiidae, Mollusca) as a prerequisite to survival in overland translocations [PDF]
, 2013 Spreading throughout a new ecosystem is the last step of an exotic species to become invasive. In the case of invasive aquatic molluscs, tolerance to air exposure is one of the main mechanisms allowing overland translocation and spreading.

The effects of single versus successive warm summers on an intertidal community
Oikos, EarlyView.To accurately predict how organisms and ecological communities will respond to future conditions caused by climate change, we must consider the temporal dynamics of environmental stressors, including the effects of repeated exposures to stress. We performed a two‐year passive thermal manipulation in coastal British Columbia, Canada to determine how ...

The niche variation hypothesis predicts hunting returns across human cultures
Oikos, EarlyView.The niche variation hypothesis (NVH) proposes that a broader population niche arises from greater individual specialization. Despite decades of empirical testing, research remains constrained to non‐human foragers, and the generality of NVH may extend beyond wildlife. The analysis of > 8000 hunting records from 12 human societies across four continents
