Myths, Furphies and Red Herrings Associated With Dingo Ecology and Management

Ecological Management &Restoration, Volume 27, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Variability in the inferential strength or reliability of different scientific studies creates uncertainty in the status of knowledge on a given subject, giving rise to multiple myths, furphies and red herrings in scientific discourse. This is particularly true in the case of dingo ecology and management in Australia, which exemplifies common ...

Satellite‐Based Fishing Fleet Tracking: A New Foundation for Fisheries Science and Management

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 5, Page 1134-1150, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Satellite‐based vessel‐tracking technologies have ushered in a new era for monitoring fishing activity at scale. By combining artificial intelligence (AI) methods with remotely‐sensed data, researchers can now detect, classify and analyse fishing behaviour across vast and previously unobservable ocean regions.

Evidence for a trade‐off between growth rate and xylem embolism resistance in 22 Eucalyptus species

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 5, Page 2407-2426, September 2026.
Examples of cross‐sectional images of branchlets at 4× and 40×. Summary Within the growth–survival trade‐off framework, embolism resistance is considered a contributor to survival, yet whether greater embolism resistance inherently limits growth remains unclear.

Incident Risk Prediction for Global Maritime Networks Under a Changing Climate

Risk Analysis, Volume 46, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Maritime risk is a fundamental component of operational cost and decision‐making in global container shipping, yet quantitative, route‐comparable risk estimates, especially in monetary terms and under future climate conditions, remain limited.

Measuring Morphological Computation in Turtle-Inspired Multi-Modal Robotic Locomotion

2025 IEEE 8th International Conference on Soft Robotics (RoboSoft)
Biological systems exploit the dynamic interaction between their body morphology and the environment to adapt more effectively to uncertain and changing environments. Amphibious creatures such as turtles are particularly impressive in their ability to seamlessly traverse radically different environments, e.g., water to sand. There is a growing interest

Analysis of Conditions and Implementation Pathways for Collaborative Governance in Aquaculture Based on Grounded Theory

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT During China's transition from scale‐oriented expansion to green development in aquaculture, tensions among environmental pressure, product safety and industrial returns have become increasingly pronounced. Traditional sector‐based management approaches are less able to respond to the governance needs arising from cross‐regional interactions ...

Automatic Determination of Quasicrystalline Patterns from Microscopy Images

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, Volume 2, Issue 4, August 2026.
This work introduces a user‐friendly machine learning tool to automatically extract and visualize quasicrystalline tiling patterns from atomically resolved microscopy images. It uses feature clustering, nearest‐neighbor analysis, and support vector machines. The method is broadly applicable to various quasicrystalline systems and is released as part of

Trends in thunderstorm days, lightning activity, squalls and the environmental factors in Hong Kong

Weather, Volume 81, Issue 8, Page 248-257, August 2026.
This study analyses trends in Hong Kong's convective weather using long‐term observer‐based and shorter‐term instrument‐based data. Annual thunderstorm days increased significantly by 1.9 days decade−1 in 1947–2024, notably in June–September, consistent with increasingly favourable warm‐season environments for thunderstorms.

Post‐Release Survival of the Pelagic Stingray (Pteroplatytrygon violacea, Bonaparte, 1832) in French Longline Fisheries in the Northwestern Mediterranean Sea

Fisheries Management and Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 4, Page 719-732, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Bycatch remains a critical challenge in global fisheries, even when using selective gears such as longlines. In the French longline fishery targeting Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus) in the Gulf of Lion, the common pelagic stingray (Pteroplatytrygon violacea) is the primary bycatch species.
