Historical Collections of Tropical Marine Mammals Are an Excellent Resource for Ancient DNA

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 25, Issue 7, October 2025.
ABSTRACT The ability to predict ancient DNA sequencing success in natural history collections is critical to reducing the amount of destructive sampling of a finite resource. So far, studies investigating such success have predominantly focused on taxa with ranges restricted to temperate or cold environments at northern latitudes, which likely aids DNA

Prioritizing future evidence needs for marine and freshwater mammal conservation action

Animal Conservation, Volume 28, Issue 4, Page 542-552, August 2025.
To improve conservation practice, decisions should be informed by the available evidence on the effectiveness of conservation actions. Here, we review the comprehensiveness of this evidence base for marine and freshwater mammals. We assess the taxonomic and geographic coverage of the evidence base, identify biases and suggest priorities for future ...

How much seagrass does a dugong need? Metabolic rate of live wild dugongs, Dugong dugon, determined through indirect calorimetry (oxygen consumption)

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 41, Issue 2, April 2025.
Abstract Deterioration of seagrass beds worldwide has raised concern about the future of dugongs because almost all aspects of their life history depend on availability of seagrass. Understanding their energy metabolism and consequently how much seagrass they need will inform protective conservation strategies for dugongs. This study determined resting
