Coastal restoration projects often require sediment resources borrowed from estuarine or marine ecosystems. A generalized additive modeling (GAM) framework was used to characterize fish-habitat relationships and predict spatiotemporal and ontogenetic ...

ABSTRACT The presumptive standards approach to environmental flows offers a method to develop interim guidelines for ecological and social‐cultural flow needs. The approach is based on deriving acceptable percent‐of‐flow limits based on naturalised flows (the absence of depletion or alteration of flow), and it can be an effective precursor to a full ...

Abstract Mid‐mantle (660–2,000 km) seismic observations are commonly attributed to thermo‐chemical heterogeneities or phase transitions, yet many observed features remain difficult to reconcile with these mechanisms alone. It has been shown that the depth‐dependent behavior of bridgmanite deformation generates a strain‐induced seismic discontinuity ...

Abstract Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading global cause of death, driven by complex mechanisms, in which chronic inflammation plays a central role. Inflammatory pathways contribute to all stages of CVD, from endothelial dysfunction and plaque formation to erosion, rupture and myocardial injury.

Evaluating the use of taxonomy in the IUCN Red List
Abstract Taxonomy defines the units that conservationists strive to preserve for future generations. However, the discovery of new species and the taxonomic revision of existing species affect conservation efforts. Despite the importance of taxonomy for a species’ conservation, there is currently no overview of how those leading species extinction risk

Genetic Bottleneck and Panmixia Following the Collapse of a Great Lakes Lake Whitefish Fishery
ABSTRACT Lake whitefish Coregonus clupeaformis abundance has declined throughout most of the Laurentian Great Lakes in North America for two decades. Current management strategies in Lake Erie assume that there is a single stock of lake whitefish that spawns in the West Basin.

Interspecific Gene Flow and Potential Hybrid Breakdown in South Atlantic Sea Turtles
ABSTRACT Interspecific hybridisation can play an important evolutionary role, generating new taxa or outbreeding depression, which can also lead to behavioural reproductive isolation through reinforcement. Still, there are few studies investigating how divergence time relates to hybridisation rates and its impact on introgression. Sea turtles are known
