Utilizing Exhaled Breath and Skin Microbiomes in Assessments of At‐Risk Killer Whales (Orcinus orca)
Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 2, April 2026.ABSTRACT For at‐risk populations of killer whales (Orcinus orca), biological samples can offer information about individual animal status. We hypothesized that low‐yield samples could provide sufficient material for microbiome analysis. We collected and analyzed, with amplicon metabarcoding, breath samples from managed care and free‐ranging killer ...

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2025.Introduction of biocontrol agents to agricultural environments creates microbial confrontations. In confrontations between a fungal maize pathogen and a biocontrol bacterium or a ubiquitous fungus, novel compounds with similarity to synthetic fungicides and substances putatively toxic to humans are formed, questioning consumer safety of biological ...

Weichselian–Holocene glacial history of the Sjuøyane archipelago, northern Svalbard
Boreas, Volume 54, Issue 3, Page 288-304, July 2025.To reconstruct the glacial history of Sjuøyane, we describe coastal sedimentary sections in Quaternary sediments and constrain their chronology by radiocarbon and optically stimulated luminescence ages. The sedimentary sections largely consist of shallow (glacio‐)marine and/or littoral sediments deposited during high relative sea levels.
