When Nature Counts: Corporate Biodiversity Attention and Access to Bank Finance

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates whether corporate attention to biodiversity influences firms' access to bank loans, an overlooked question in the emerging biodiversity–finance literature. Using a novel, text‐based measure constructed from 446 biodiversity‐related keywords and applied to Chinese A‐share listed firms from 2000 to 2023, we show that ...

Defining the “to” in end-to-end models [PDF]

, 2009
Robust models relating climate change to fish production require an adequate description of planktonic intermediaries between phytoplankton and fish in end-to-end models.

Reduced size of larvae and small fish linked to warming and reduced prey density

Ecography, EarlyView.
Body size is an integrative trait that has declined across many ecological assemblages in the last decades. Changes in body size of early life stages and small‐bodied fish are driven by complex interactions between size‐dependent mortality, and temperature‐ and food‐dependent growth, and can have consequences for recruitment to the adult stock and food

Assessment of the water quality of ten Waikato lakes based on zooplankton community composition. CBER Contract Report No. 60 [PDF]

, 2007
Zooplankton communities were documented from ten Waikato lakes from net haul samples collected in late 2006 and from species hatched from diapausing eggs in sediments collected in early 2007.

Spatially heterogenous range dynamics since the Last Glacial Maximum underpin the modern bimodal latitudinal diversity gradient in planktonic foraminifera

Ecography, EarlyView.
The modern latitudinal diversity gradient (LDG) of planktonic foraminifera is bimodal, with a distinct depression near the equator surrounded by mid‐latitude diversity peaks. This pattern emerged after the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM; 19–23 ka), but it remains unclear how species' spatial dynamics contributed to its formation.

ZOOPLANKTON

, 2023
The spatial and temporal variation of the zooplankton was studied over an annual cycle at three collection points along the reservoir in the fluvial, transition and lacustrine regions. Altogether, 63 zooplankton species were identified, with 40 Rotifera, 15 Cladocera, and eight Copepoda. Among the Rotifera, 23 species were considered to be rare (< 25%),

Nanoplastics: Methods, Exposure and Effects on Domestic, Farm and Wild Animals

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nanoplastics (NPs) are synthetic polymer particles ranging in size from 1 nm to 1 μm that have been identified as a major concern for ecosystems and organisms due to their plethora of negative effects. The aim of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of the knowledge relating to exposure and effects of NPs in domestic (i.e., farm ...

Developmental and Behavioral Effects of Arsenobetaine in Zebrafish (Danio rerio)

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Arsenobetaine (AsB) is a prevalent organoarsenical in aquatic environments and is generally regarded as nontoxic. Despite its widespread occurrence, the developmental and neurobehavioral toxicity of AsB has not been systematically investigated.

The nutritional status of zooplankton in a tropical reservoir: effects of food quality and community structure

Brazilian Journal of Biology
The temporal variability of energetic reserves of zooplankton in the eutrophic Pampulha reservoir was investigated during two successive annual cycles. The effects of dominance of large filter-feeding cladocerans (Daphnia) and the occurrence of massive ...

Crustacean zooplankton dynamics in a natural riverine lake, Upper Mississippi River

Journal of Freshwater Ecology, 2017
Zooplankton communities in riverine systems are typically thought to be driven by abiotic forces. However, recent studies have shown that biological controls are capable of structuring these communities in large rivers and may become more influential as ...
