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.

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

Task-Oriented Query Reformulation with Reinforcement Learning
, 2017 Search engines play an important role in our everyday lives by assisting us in finding the information we need. When we input a complex query, however, results are often far from satisfactory. In this work, we introduce a query reformulation system based

Towards amphibious robots: Asymmetric flapping foil motion underwater produces large thrust efficiently [PDF]
, 2009 The development of amphibious robots requires actuation that enables them to crawl as well as swim; sea turtles are excellent examples of amphibious functionality, that can serve as the biomimetic model for the development of amphibious robots.

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 3, April 2026.We studied the effects of urban growth on wildlife near Parque Nacional Marino las Baulas, Costa Rica. Since 1991, buildings increased 1007%, mainly in the buffer zone. We identified eight native species extracting garbage from containers, with raccoons (Procyon lotor) comprising most detections (84%), and four other species being potential sea turtle ...

Design and research of tortoise-like soft robot based on bending-twisting integrated actuator
Jixie chuandongObjectiveAiming at the problem that existing tortoise-like robots are difficult to balance multi-modal motion and multi-scene adaptation, a bending-twisting integrated actuator with both bending and twisting functions was designed and optimized based on ...

31P‐MRS of the Human Heart at 7 T With an Integrated Whole‐Body 31P Radiofrequency Transmit Coil
NMR in Biomedicine, Volume 39, Issue 4, April 2026.We demonstrate the use of an integrated whole‐body phosphorus‐31 (31P) radiofrequency transmit coil for 31P‐MR spectroscopic imaging of the human heart at 7 T. Intersession measurement repeatability of the mid‐septal myocardial phosphocreatine (PCr) over adenosine triphosphate (ATP) concentration ratio in normal volunteers was 17.7%.

Ecosystem Impacts of the Landing Obligation for Unwanted Catch in Thermaikos Gulf (Greece)
Fisheries Management and Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 246-259, April 2026.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 ...
