Comparative species distribution model framework for marine conservation and its application to loggerhead turtles in the Mediterranean

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Modeling species distributions in dynamic pelagic environments remains challenging, particularly for wide‐ranging and highly mobile species when there is limited guidance on model performance. This limitation constrains the effective use of species distribution models (SDMs) in marine conservation, where robust and transferable predictions are

Does nature shape risk preferences? Evidence from Chile, Norway, and Tanzania

Economic Inquiry, Volume 63, Issue 2, Page 568-590, April 2025.
Abstract Does exposure to a more risky environment affect risk preferences? Going beyond single‐case study evidence, we report results from five surveys conducted in three countries and link this with administrative data to study whether a link between exposure and preferences is detectable and widespread. We find no evidence for endogenous preferences

The Effect of Mine‐Related Groundwater Use and Management on Surface Water in the Middle Humboldt River Basin

Groundwater, EarlyView.
Abstract The Humboldt River, in Northern Nevada, USA, is a source of water for agricultural, municipal, and industrial uses. Mining has been active in Nevada since the 1800s. The recognition that groundwater withdrawal for many purposes—including mining—has the potential to deplete streamflow has prompted studies of the Humboldt River Basin.

Long‐Term Discharge Records from United States and European Karst Springs: Data Limitations in Trend Analysis

Groundwater, EarlyView.
Karst spring discharge trend (the change in discharge over a period greater than 30 years for each spring) does not depend on discharge variability. Insets show two springs with contrasting discharge variability (variable vs. extremely high variability) but similar discharge trends.

The role of platform margin collapses and slope landslides in the initiation and evolution of submarine canyons

Frontiers in Marine Science
The Zhongsha Platform is the largest modern isolated carbonate platform of around 8600 km2 in the South China Sea, providing a unique case study for sedimentary processes in pure carbonate settings.

Contrasting population genetic structures of congeneric coastal flounders associated with different early life histories

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Marine fish species are likely to exhibit little genetic differentiation among populations due to their high dispersal potential during early life stages and migratory nature. However, recent studies have increasingly reported intraspecific genetic differentiation resulting from species‐specific ecological traits, environmental factors, and ...

First insights into oceanic manta ray movements in Japan using satellite telemetry

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Japanese waters represent the northern distributional limit of the western Pacific distribution of the oceanic manta ray (Mobula birostris), yet movement ecology in this region remains poorly understood. We report movements of the first satellite‐tagged individual in Japan.

Eustatic sea level controls on the flushing of a shelf-incising submarine canyon

, 2018
Turbidity currents are the principal processes responsible for carving submarine canyons and maintaining them over geological time scales. The turbidity currents that maintain or “flush” submarine canyons are some of the most voluminous sediment ...

Advances in Understanding Marine Geohazards: From Characterization to Prediction

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Marine geohazards encompass a wide variety of processes, including submarine landslides, canyon morphodynamics, turbidity currents, gas hydrates, seafloor fluid emissions, and the impacts of internal solitary waves on sediments [...]

Evolution, Routing and Reservoir Characteristics of Submarine Channels in a Structurally Deforming Slope Setting: Deep‐Water Joint Development Zone of Nigeria and São Tomé and Príncipe

Journal of Petroleum Geology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Deep‐water slope channels and associated facies are a major part of clastic sediment dispersal system extending from the shelf‐edge to the abyssal plain. The toe‐thrust area of the deep‐water Niger Delta enables the analysis of these channels and their interaction with evolving fault‐controlled sea‐floor topography to be determined ...
