We investigated long‐term changes in the breeding timing and within‐season patterns of clutch size, egg volume, incubation duration, and daily nest survival of three shorebird species at a sub‐Arctic site across two decades. We found an unexpected long‐term cooling trend, and all three species delayed egg‐laying at a similar rate.

Early Autumn: Drought Accelerates Leaf Senescence in Temperate Tree Species
ABSTRACT Climate warming has led to an increase of drought events with consequences on physiological processes in trees and implications for carbon sequestration. Drought may lead to changes in the timing of autumn phenology and premature senescence.

Metamer Mismatching Predicts Color Difference Ellipsoids
ABSTRACT It is well known that color‐discrimination thresholds vary throughout color space, as is easily observed from the familiar MacAdam ellipses plotted in chromaticity space. But why is this the case? Existing formulations of uniform color spaces (e.g., CIELAB, CIECAM02, CAM16‐UCS) and their associated color‐difference DE metrics are all models ...

Simulating Realistic Design Storms: A Joint Return Period Approach
Abstract Design storms are key components for planning drainage networks and flood risk management. Due to atmospheric processes, precipitation accumulations across multiple temporal intervals are often correlated and can combine to shape flood intensities. However, current design storm guidance overlook the observed correlations between return periods

Hair fragility (trichorrhexis nodosa) in alopecic Pomeranian dogs
Background – Alopecia associated with hair cycle arrest (HCA, Alopecia X) is well‐recognised in Pomeranian dogs. The authors are unaware of reports of hair fragility in affected dogs. Hypothesis/Objectives – Following the observation of frequent hair shaft abnormalities in alopecic Pomeranians, we hypothesised that hair fragility events would be more ...

Abstract Many temperate lakes accumulate sediment derived orthophosphate (PO4) in their hypolimnion during late‐summer deep‐water hypoxia. In dimictic lakes, fall turnover will mix the PO4 through the water column. However, the fate and transport of this primary production limiting nutrient, during winter, is unknown.

Coastal fisheries adaptations to increasing climate change exposure in Japan
Abstract Climate change‐driven ocean warming is altering the geographic ranges of species, leading to a poleward shift of tropical species into temperate regions (tropicalisation). This threatens the native marine community assemblages by changing the availability of traditional marine resources, thus impacting the livelihood and well‐being of coastal ...

Background – Diagnosis of canine adverse food reactions (AFRs) is based on vague criteria, such as ‘>50% improvement’ during elimination diet trial (EDT) followed by ‘deterioration’ during provocation test (PT). Objective – The objective of the study was to use predefined criteria to evaluate response during EDT [i.e., Owner Global Assessment of ...
