Comparison of life history parameters for landed and discarded fish captured off the southeastern United States [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Commercial fisheries that are managed with minimum size limits protect small fish of all ages and may affect size-selective mortality by the differential removal of fast growing fish.

Pollution to Solution: Understanding and Addressing Microplastic Contamination in the Environment

open access: yesEnvironmental Quality Management, Volume 35, Issue 3, Spring 2026.
ABSTRACT In general, plastic pollution results from the unintentional release of macroplastic materials into the environment as well as the deliberate production and usage of small plastic particles (micro‐ and nano‐sized plastic particles) in a variety of consumer products micro and nanoplastics in filtrate freshwater and marine environments because ...

Brazil's Invisible Invaders: Are Craspedacusta Jellyfish a Ticking Ecological Bomb?

open access: yesAustral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The invasive freshwater jellyfish Craspedacusta sowerbii, likely of Asian origin, is globally distributed, yet its invasion history in South America remains poorly understood. Following a mass mortality event of tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) during a jellyfish bloom in Paraná, Brazil, in March 2022, we conducted morphological and molecular ...

Cleaning of water-gilded surfaces using hydro- and solvent-gels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This paper describes the implementation of three customized gels on a 19th century panel painting for the removal of its degraded natural resin varnish from a water-gilded surface and a complex solvent-sensitive stratigraphic construction over the gilded

Common milkweed gardens increase occupancy by monarch butterflies and other specialist herbivores towards an urban centre

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 2, Page 380-392, March 2026.
We surveyed 119 stands of common milkweed (Asclepias syriaca) across an urbanisation gradient to investigate how restored garden habitat might ameliorate the negative effects of urbanisation on specialist herbivores. Surprisingly, we found most herbivores (including the monarch butterfly) had greater occupancy on common milkweed towards an urban centre.

イナゴ ラン キセイバチ ニカンスル ケンキュウダイ8ホウ : トクニ キセイバチ ムライクロタマゴバチ オヨビ ツルオカクロタマゴバチ ノ セイカツカン ト ゴハイシ ハッセイ ニツイテ [PDF]

open access: yes, 1959
1)両卵寄生蜂の生活環は胚子の発育同様の寄主卵を供試し,同様の環境条件下で飼育した場合には,殆んど差異を認めない.しかし,野外においては寄生の時期,寄生後の環境条件(特に温度)などによって生活環は変化するようで,大部分の個体は年に1世代しか経過しないが8月中に羽化して直に寄主卵に寄生を完了した個体は年に2世代を経過する.越冬は第1令幼虫でなされる.2)両卵寄生蜂とも,その後胚子発生は極めて類似しており,各ステージの体長,休巾,活動習性などにおいては著しい差異を認めることは出来なかった.ただ ...

Widow rockfish: Proceedings of a workshop, Tiburon, California, December 11-12, 1980 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
This workshop was organized because of the increase between 1978 and 1980 in coastwide landings of widow rockfish, from less than 1,000 mt to more than 20,000 mt, and because of scientists' concern with the lack of knowledge both of the fishery and ...

Softening of Magnetic Excitations Leading to Pressure-Induced Quantum Phase Transition in Gapped Spin System KCuCl$_3$

open access: yes, 2007
KCuCl$_3$ is a three dimensionally coupled spin dimer system, which undergoes a pressure-induced quantum phase transition from a gapped ground state to an antiferromagnetic state at a critical pressure of $P_{\rm c} \simeq 8.2$ kbar. Magnetic excitations
