Molecular Baraminology of Marine and Freshwater Fish

Background How did freshwater and saltwater fish survive the Flood? Is it even possible for fish to adapt rapidly between saltwater and freshwater? What kind of biological mechanism make this process ... . MOLECULAR BARAMINOLOGY OF MARINE AND FRESHWATER FISH After the Flood, the Earth had become a very different place for organisms to inhabit. Entire biomes and ecosystems had changed during the massive upheaval

Multilocus sequence typing and antibiotic resistance of Aeromonas isolated from freshwater fish in Hebei Province

Aeromonas spp. are the opportunistic pathogens that infect both aquatic and terrestrial homeotherms. They were commonly present in aquatic environments, including effluent, tap water, marine, river

Foraging behaviour and ecology of transient killer whales within a deep submarine canyon system

Field application of de novo transcriptomic analysis to evaluate the effects of sublethal freshwater salinization on Gasterosteus aculeatus in urban streams

Freshwater salinization poses global challenges for aquatic organisms inhabiting urban streams, impacting their physiology and ecology. However, current salinization research predominantly focuses on ... salinity (Euryhalinity) [ 36 ]. Even landlocked freshwater populations of stickleback, which have been separated from the marine environment for thousands of years, possess the osmoregulatory machinery

Global freshwater fish invasion linked to the presence of closely related species

In the Anthropocene, non-native freshwater fish introductions and translocations have occurred extensively worldwide. However, their global distribution patterns and the factors influencing their ... freshwater ecosystems. in Fifty Years of Invasion Ecology: The Legacy of Charles Elton (ed. Richardson, D.

How a multidimensional ecology education approach can enhance college curricula to implement the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals

determine whether instructors could teach both in context of one another - to the betterment of both sustainability and ecology education. Analysis of the subcomponents of 4DEE arrayed against the Targets in ... scientists, as Goal 4 addresses education, Goal 7 addresses affordable and clean energy, while Goals 13, 14, and 15 have direct relevance to the field of ecology – because they deal with climate change, marine

Marine cyanobacterial biomass is an efficient feedstock for fungal bioprocesses

Marine cyanobacteria offer many sustainability advantages, such as the ability to fix atmospheric CO2, very fast growth and no dependence on freshwater for culture. Cyanobacterial biomass is a rich ... , we cultured the marine cyanobacterium Synechococcus sp. PCC 7002 in a 3-L externally illuminated bioreactor with working volume of 2 L with a biomass productivity of ~ 0.8 g L−1 day−1. Hydrolysis of

Exploring the temporal dynamics of methane ebullition in a subtropical freshwater reservoir

continuous high frequency measurements of ebullition fluxes and environmental variables in a mesotrophic subtropical and polymictic freshwater reservoir. The synchronization of ebullition events across ... subtropical freshwater reservoir.

Phenology and ecological role of aerobic anoxygenic phototrophs in freshwaters

substantial contribution to bacterial biomass, microbial food webs, and carbon cycle, their phenology in freshwater lakes remains unknown. Hence, we investigated seasonal variations of AAP abundance and ... Introduction Recurrent seasonal changes of aquatic microbial communities are among the best-studied phenomena in freshwater lakes and reservoirs. The Plankton Ecology Group (PEG) model initially described the

Digital image processing: A new tool for morphological measurements of freshwater turtles under rehabilitation

Freshwater fauna is facing an uphill task for survival in the Ganga Basin, India, due to a range of factors causing habitat degradation and fragmentation, necessitating conservation interventions. As ... ], is one of the 17 mega-diverse countries considering turtle richness [10, 11]. The diversity of its chelonian fauna is reflected both in the freshwater and marine aquatic ecosystems. The stressors

A three-dimensional model of terrain-induced updrafts for movement ecology studies

proposed model has a mean error of 0.04 m/s ( $$\sigma =0.25$$ m/s), compared to baseline 0.54 m/s ( $$\sigma =0.45$$ m/s) estimations. We illustrate an application of the model in movement ecology by ... ecology studies Regis Thedin1*, David Brandes1,2, Eliot Quon1, Rimple Sandhu1 and Charles Tripp1 Abstract Background Spatially explicit simulation models of animal movements through the atmosphere

Variability in the duration and timing of the estuarine to freshwater transition of critically endangered European eel Anguilla anguilla

transition from marine to freshwater habitats. Considerable knowledge gaps remain on the temporal and spatial patterns of this transition period to freshwater residency. Stable isotope (SI) analysis (δ13C ... .) is a critically endangered catadromous fish. Their inshore and in-river arrival as glass eel and elvers is an important stage of their life cycle, marking the transition from marine to freshwater

Microplastic burden in marine benthic invertebrates depends on species traits and feeding ecology within biogeographical provinces

The microplastic body burden of marine animals is often assumed to reflect levels of environmental contamination, yet variations in feeding ecology and regional trait expression could also affect a ... . & Levinton , J.
