Robotic Vehicles Enable High-Resolution Light Pollution Sampling of Sea Turtle Nesting Beaches
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2018 Nesting sea turtles appear to avoid brightly lit beaches and often turn back to sea prematurely when exposed to artificial light. Observations and experiments have noted that nesting turtles prefer darker areas where buildings and high dunes act as light barriers. As a result, sea turtles often nest on darker beaches, creating spatial concentrations of

Long‐read sequencing for biodiversity analyses—A comprehensive guide
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract DNA‐based monitoring of biodiversity has revolutionised our ability to describe communities and rapidly assess anthropogenic impacts on biodiversity. Currently established molecular methods for biomonitoring rely heavily on classic metabarcoding utilising short reads, mostly through Illumina data.

Ecosystem Impacts of the Landing Obligation for Unwanted Catch in Thermaikos Gulf (Greece)
Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Discards by marine commercial fisheries have been an issue of major concern to the scientific community in recent years. We modeled the ecological and trophic consequences of a mandatory landing obligation (LO) regulated by the reformed Common Fisheries Policy [Regulation (EU) 1380/2013] on the Thermaikos Gulf ecosystem (northwestern Aegean ...

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.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.

The Modern Language Journal, EarlyView.Abstract This duoethnographic study explores how two nonnative returnee English teachers in China negotiate their professional identities through chronotopically layered transnational literacy experiences. Drawing on the concept of the chronotope—the interconnectedness of time, space, and personhood—the analysis identifies three chronotopic ...

Crafting the Ocean: The Geographies of Environmental World‐Making
Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, EarlyView.Short Abstract The paper departs from existing analyses of ‘world making’, bringing cultural and environmental geographies into further conversation through linking theories of crafting and world‐making together, through the lens of the contemporary aquarium and nascent oceanic geographies.

A Conceptual Framework and Methods for Studying the Connectivity of Fishes
Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 2, Page 342-369, March 2026.ABSTRACT Connectivity is a multifaceted concept that has important implications for the management and conservation of marine and freshwater fishes. We developed a conceptual framework that encompasses multiple, interrelated categories of connectedness, including landscape (e.g., structural, functional) connectivity and ecological (e.g., trophic ...
