Intact coastal nursery rearing amid climate‐driven phenological shifts in threatened salmon

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Literature linking phenology to climate has proliferated in recent decades and shows that climate change has reorganized seasonal opportunities worldwide. However, this literature often quantifies changes in point measures of timing (e.g., beginnings and peaks) without context about duration (e.g., rearing season length) or performance (e.g ...

Crab spider vision improves their prey capture despite low visual system investment [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science
Crab spiders (Thomisidae) are well-known predators, typically ambushing prey upon flowers and other plants. This style of predation suggests a potential benefit from vision in prey capture by crab spiders despite their comparatively small eyes.

Examining the Impact of Derelict Pots on Blue Crab (Callinectes sapidus) Catch and Harvest Within a Recreational Fishery

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Derelict fishing gear can negatively affect marine ecosystems through mortality in coastal environments. This study explored the impact of derelict and active crab pots on recreational blue crab (Callinectes sapidus) catch rates and landings in a Mid‐Atlantic estuary by deploying experimental pots in four habitat strata within three sections ...

That sinkin’ feeling: Environmentally induced distress on a disappearing island

Medical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Residents of Tangier Island, Virginia, a subsiding island in the Chesapeake Bay, embody psychosocial dimensions of environmental change. Analysis of ethnographic data shows islanders’ experiences and articulations of anxiety, panic, and despair as “that sinkin’ feeling,” resulting from the stress of living with the long‐term threat of imminent

The expressiveness of spider diagrams augmented with constants [PDF]

, 2009
Spider diagrams are a visual language for expressing logical statements or constraints. Several sound and complete spider diagram systems have been developed and it has been shown that they are equivalent in expressive power to monadic first order logic ...

Defecation in preparation for ecdysis drives microplastic clearance in cricket nymphs

Physiological Entomology, EarlyView.
In preparation for ecdysis, cricket nymphs cease feeding and gradually clear their gut contents via frass production, which removes most ingested MPs from their digestive tract. Following exoskeletal moulting, the foregut lining, including any remaining MPs, is shed and excreted alongside frass approximately 6 h later.

Comprehensive Ophthalmic Evaluation of Clinically Normal Rhesus Monkeys (Macaca mulatta): Selected Ophthalmic Diagnostic Tests, Tear‐Film Biochemistry and Serum Correlations, Conjunctival Microbiota and Ophthalmic Artery Haemodynamics

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 6, November 2026.
Comprehensive ophthalmic evaluation of clinically healthy rhesus monkeys identified baseline values for selected ophthalmic diagnostic tests, including STT‐1, TBUT, IOP, PFL, blink rate and ophthalmic artery haemodynamics assessed by CDI. Tear‐film biochemical analyses, serum correlations and conjunctival microbiota characterization further expanded ...
