Time-division SQUID multiplexers with reduced sensitivity to external magnetic fields
Time-division SQUID multiplexers are used in many applications that require exquisite control of systematic error. One potential source of systematic error is the pickup of external magnetic fields in the multiplexer. We present measurements of the field

Sentience in cephalopod molluscs: an updated assessment
ABSTRACT This article evaluates the evidence for sentience – the capacity to have feelings – in cephalopod molluscs: octopus, cuttlefish, squid, and nautilus. Our framework includes eight criteria, covering both whether the animal's nervous system could support sentience and whether their behaviour indicates sentience.

Northern shortfin squid (Illex illecebrosus) and longfin inshore squid (Doryteuthis pealeii) are fished commercially and recreationally off Atlantic Canada, but limited reporting, particularly from recreational fisheries, has left major gaps in our ...

Orange-back squid females, Sthenoteuthis pteropus, were found to mature at two different sizes: 230-270 mm and 380-450 mm mantle length (ML). The systematic status of these groups remains unknown.

The influence of rivers on seabird foraging ecology
ABSTRACT Rivers act as vital arteries to the world's oceans, delivering fresh water and nutrients that sustain marine ecosystems. Globally, river flow increasingly is being altered by climate change and anthropogenic pressures; yet the significance of rivers to predatory marine species, such as seabirds, and the extent to which river‐related changes ...

Development of the hectocotylus in Illex coindetii (Verany 1837) (Cephalopoda: Ommastrephidae)
Species of the genus Illex (Family Ommastrephidae) are distinguished morphologically mainly based on differences in the hectocotylus, the modified arm that males of many cephalopod species use to transfer spermatophores to females during mating We ...

Nickel complexes showing reversible vapochromic and spin crossover behaviors upon coordination and release of NH3 were synthesized. They bear bidentate pyridazine ligands, which allows for formation of hydrogen bonds between NH3 and the ligand in the second coordination sphere.

Divining the Essence of Symbiosis: Insights from the Squid-Vibrio Model
Recent molecular data place microbes at the center of the biosphere, from ecosystem sustainability to animal and plant fitness. Models, including the squid-vibrio symbiosis described in this Essay, provide windows into underlying mechanisms that drive ...

A Crystallographic Shear Driven by Oxygen Insertion in (LuFeO3)nLuFe2O4
Layered structures (LuFeO3)nLuFe2O4 exhibit a common structural transformation upon oxygen uptake. Although the LuFeO3 units do not directly participate in oxygen insertion, these inactive layers nevertheless influence the temperature at which oxygen absorption occurs.
