Nursery areas are critical to the survival of many marine species, and it is widely accepted that elasmobranch species use nursery where they improve fitness. A 2007 review proposed an approach identify help clarify their location use. Here we examine progress towards defining nurseries in intervening ≥10 years. Many studies have used these criteria, some tested effectiveness, but apparent there still much learn. Our current understanding biased tropical coastal shark with few temperate,...

Abstract Background Acoustic telemetry has become a fundamental tool to monitor the movement of aquatic species. Advances in technology, particular development batteries with lives > 10 years, have increased our ability track long-term patterns many However, logistics and financial constraints often dictate locations deployment duration acoustic receivers. Consequently, there is compromise between optimal array design affordability. Such can hinder marine animals over large spatial...
Abstract Acoustic telemetry has been used to monitor the movement of aquatic animals in a broad range environments. Despite their importance, mangrove habitats are understudied for spatial ecology elasmobranchs, with acoustic rarely inside habitats. One reason this may be general assumption that signals would not able detected by receivers such shallow, structurally complex, This study tested whether can track sharks and rays. Thirty‐eight were deployed system Pioneer Bay, Orpheus Island,...
Eight specimens of Sphenodus have been collected from the Upper Cretaceous, Coniacian Nakagawa Town in Hokkaido, northern Japan. They are referred to as S. cf. lundgreni and spp. 1 2, described detail. Nearly complete were previously unknown Cretaceous Pacific region, first exhibit distinct root morphologies, which allow comparison at species level. A review occurrences this genus reveals that their distribution concentrates mid- high palaeolatitude regions. This distributional pattern may...
High water temperatures resulted in damage to the coral Japan's Okinawa prefecture during worldwide bleaching event of 1998. However, Sekisei lagoon, with a radius 20 km and largest reef area (between Ishigaki Island Iriomote Prefecture), suffered only about 30% its corals. Why was influence relatively weak lagoon? The maintenance that were non-stressful corals lagoon is probably due physical environment's effects on flow regime. regime region an important environmental factor affecting...
Sekisei lagoon is the largest coral reef region, with a radius of 20 km, in Japan (between Ishigaki Island and Iriomote Okinawa Prefecture), suffered damage to only about 30% its corals when worldwide bleaching occurred 1998.

Box model was assembled for including large reefs, applied estimation mass between adjacent areas. based on continuities heat flux, salinity, mass....
While music perception in infants has been studied through behavioral experiments, functional neuroimaging is now growing as a potential novel approach with which to elucidate this developmental process. This study used near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) measure the cortical hemodynamics of two- five-month-old during presentation examine their changes tempo. We found that hemoglobin signal increased after tempo changed comparison no change condition (habituation). suggests can perceive and...
