on Sep 4, 2022
Studying the relationship between diversification and functional trait evolution among broadly co-occurring clades can shed light on interactions between ecology and evolutionary history. However, evidence from many studies is compromised because of ... Read More
Black Placemaking under Environmental Stressors
- Environment and Society
- VOL. 13
on Sep 1, 2022
Dry farming, or techniques of cultivating crops in regions with domineering dry seasons, was central to Black agricultural life across the Black diaspora, but especially in the Black Pacific. Ecologically, the Black diaspora transformed semi-arid eco... Read More
Different ecological histories of sea urchins acclimated to reduced pH influence offspring response to multiple stressors
- Environmental Research
- VOL. 212
on Sep 1, 2022
End-of-the-century predictions on carbon dioxide (CO2) driven ocean acidification and the continuous leakage of pesticides from inland to coastal areas are of concern for potential negative effects on marine species' early life stages which are the m... Read More
Competition in tertiary ballroom dance education in China: ‘a double-edged sword’
- Research in Dance Education
- VOL. ahead-of-print
on Aug 31, 2022
ABSTRACT Presently there are approximately 50 million ballroom dancers in China, and over 100 tertiary institutions offering bachelor’s degrees majoring in ballroom dance. It was this context and the growth of tertiary ballroom dance education and th... Read More
Negative temperature dependence of statolith Sr/Ca and its intraspecific variability in experimentally maintained spear squid Heterololigo bleekeri
- Journal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom
on Aug 19, 2022
Abstract The strontium-to-calcium ratio (Sr/Ca) in aragonitic shells and statoliths often depends on temperature, and has been investigated for its potential availability as a sclerochronological record of the temperatures experienced during the l... Read More
Influence and Analysis of the Language and Cultural Ecological Environment in the Cognitive Process of English Writing
- Journal of Environmental and Public Health
- VOL. 2022
on Aug 16, 2022
Language and culture ecological environment introduces ecological theory into language and culture research, expanding the horizon of language research. The influence of language and cultural, ecological environment on English writing covers many asp... Read More
Local ecological knowledge and regional sighting histories of Hainan Peacock-pheasant Polyplectron katsumatae: pessimism or optimism for a threatened island endemic?
- Bird Conservation International
on Aug 15, 2022
Summary Baseline data on local status of threatened species are often limited, and alternative information sources such as local ecological knowledge (LEK) have potential to provide conservation insights but require critical evaluation. We assess ... Read More
A combination of host ecology and habitat but not evolutionary history explains differences in the microbiomes associated with rotifers
- Hydrobiologia
on Aug 11, 2022
AbstractThe holobiont concept places emphasis on the strict relationship between a host and its associated microbiome, with several studies supporting a strong effect of the quality of the microbiome on the host fitness. The generalities of the holob... Read More
Wearable reproductive trackers: quantifying a key life history event remotely
- Animal Biotelemetry
- VOL. 10
on Aug 10, 2022
AbstractAdvancements in biologging technology allow terabytes of data to be collected that record the location of individuals but also their direction, speed and acceleration. These multi-stream data sets allow researchers to infer movement and behav... Read More
Spatio-temporal distribution of ostracod species in saline inland lakes (Mansfeld lake area; Central Germany)
- PeerJ
- VOL. 10
on Aug 9, 2022
Ostracods are a diverse group of microcrustaceans with a ubiquitous distribution in a wide array of aquatic habitats and are common constituents of lake sediments. Inferences on the temporal-spatial distribution of ostracod species is a prerequisite ... Read More
Archaeology as Sustainability Science: Perspectives from Ancient Island Societies
- Sustainability
- VOL. 14
on Aug 6, 2022
Humans and the diverse ecosystems we inhabit face numerous sustainability challenges due to climate change, rising seas, population growth, overfishing, natural habitat destruction, accelerating extinctions, and more. As an interdisciplinary paradigm... Read More
The behavioural ecology of Sepiolidae (Cephalopoda: Sepiolida): a review
- Molluscan Research
- VOL. ahead-of-print
on Aug 6, 2022
ABSTRACT Sepiolidae (Cephalopoda: Sepiolida) are growing in popularity as model organisms, not least because of their well-studied symbiotic relationship with light producing bacteria. Their easy maintenance and cultivation requirements in captivity... Read More
Meta-analysis of tadpole taste tests: consumption of anuran prey across development and predator strategies.
- Oecologia
- VOL. 199
on Aug 1, 2022
The risk of predation and the costs and benefits of diverse anti-predator strategies can shift across the life stages of an organism. Yet, empirical examples of ontogenetic switches in defense mechanisms are scarce. Anurans represent an alleged excep... Read More
