Significance Divergent lineages can respond to common environmental factors through convergent processes involving shared genomic components or pathways, but the molecular mechanisms are poorly understood. Here, we provide resources and insights into evolution of mammalian adapting aquatic life. Our data suggest evolution, for example, in association with thermoregulation genes associated a surface heat barrier ( NFIA ) internal exchange SEMA3E ). Combined support previous reports showing...
We report a novel nanocrystals (NCs) sorbent, which shows an extraordinary adsorption capacity to aqueous Hg2+ based on cation exchange and allows for the utmost removal of mercury from water. The NCs sorbent was synthesized by direct coating ZnS surface α-Al2O3 nanoparticles. as-prepared can efficiently remove over 99.9% in 1 min, lower concentration 297.5 mg/L (ppm) below 1.0 μg/L (ppb) within 5 min. saturated is about 2000 mg/g, close theoretic capacity. mechanism influences pH value...
Passive Acoustic Monitoring (PAM) is increasingly being adopted as a non-invasive method for the assessment of ocean ecological dynamics. PAM an important sampling approach acquiring critical information about marine mammals, especially in areas where data are lacking and evaluations threats vulnerable populations required. The Indo-Pacific humpback dolphin (IPHD, Sousa chinensis) coastal species which inhabits tropical warm-temperate waters from eastern Indian Ocean throughout Southeast...
Beibu Gulf’s (BBG) Indo-Pacific humpback dolphins present both a genetic differentiation and phenotypical differences from conspecifics other areas of the South China Sea. Given recent urbanization industrialization in southern China, BBG warrant conservation attention. However, this population’s demographic trend is unclear, making it hard to take measures. To assess population status BBG, photo-identification surveys were conducted between 2015 2019 inshore region surrounding Dafeng River...
The synergistic effect of 9,10‐dihydro‐9‐oxa‐10‐phosphaphenanthrene‐10‐oxide (DOPO) immobilized silica (SiO 2 ‐DOPO) nanoparticles with an intumescent flame retardant (IFR) on the retardancy polypropylene (PP) was investigated by UL 94 vertical tests and limiting oxygen index (LOI) measurements. It found that PP/IFR composites (25 wt%) achieved UL94 V0 grade LOI increased to 32.1 incorporation 1.0 wt% SiO ‐DOPO nanoparticles. Based thermogravimetric analysis, scanning electronic microscopy...
Studies on the distribution and habitat characteristics of Indo-Pacific humpback dolphin (Sousa chinensis) indicate a general preference toward estuarine environments. However, quantitative connections between this are seldom investigated. Distribution in northern Beibu Gulf, China, was evaluated through systematically designed surveys compared to oceanographic from on-board measured remotely sensed variables. The dolphins' core zone, by 50% kernel density estimate (50% KDE), confined...
Abstract Indo‐Pacific humpback dolphins ( Sousa chinensis ) inhabit shallow coastal waters of the region including southeast China, with at least 6 putative populations identified to date in Chinese waters. However, connectivity among these has not yet been fully investigated. In present study, we compared and cross‐matched photographic catalogs individual collected Pearl River Delta region, Leizhou Bay, Sanniang southwest Hainan Island, a total 3158 individuals, found no re‐sighting 4 study...
Dugongs ( Dugong dugon ) experienced a serious population decline in China during the twentieth century, and their regional status is poorly understood. To determine current distribution status, we conducted large-scale interview survey of marine resource users across four Chinese provinces reviewed all available historical data covering past dugongs waters. Only 5% 788 respondents reported dugong sightings, with mean last-sighting date 23 years earlier, only three sightings from within 5...
Abstract A pioneering boat‐based survey was conducted in 2019, to gather baseline information regarding the presence, composition, relative abundance, and spatial distribution of deep‐diving off‐shore cetaceans northern South China Sea (SCS). total 27 sightings comprising at least 8 cetacean species were recorded during 13‐day survey, including 5 (i.e. Risso's dolphin [ Grampus griseus ], short‐finned pilot whale Globicephala macrorhynchus sperm Physeter macrocephalus Cuvier's beaked Ziphius...
Abstract Humpback dolphins ( Sousa spp.), throughout their distribution ranges, are often designated as flagship species for coastal ecosystem conservation. Most of the early research on humpback was carried out in Chinese waters, and last two decades, numerous studies have provided abundant conservation‐valuable findings. In this study, a systematic review conducted to gain comprehensive understanding distributional ecology establish an updated national knowledge base about key conservation...
Abstract Indo‐Pacific humpback dolphins form a resident population off the east coast of Leizhou Peninsula (LZP) in South China. The most recent study suggested ~1,500 individuals this area, making one only two populations species exceeding 1,000 individuals. However, demographic information regarding has been lacking since 2012. Using 5‐year (2019–2023) photo‐identification data set, we examined key parameters LZP population, namely apparent survival and size, using multistate...
Abstract Deraniyagala's beaked whale ( Mesoplodon hotaula ) is one of the least‐known species, with only a few possible live sightings being documented to date. Here, vocalizations whales were recorded using drifting recording systems in confirmed presence this northern South China Sea (SCS) 2021. A total 699 qualified frequency‐modulated (FM) pulses used calculate frequency and duration measurements. FM had median peak 43.3 kHz interpulse interval (IPI) 244.6 ms. Both spectra measurements...
The yak (Bos grunniens), prevalent at an altitude between 3000 and 5000 m above sea level, provides the local inhabitants with meat, milk, leather, fuel (dung), transport. However, intestinal zoonotic parasites seriously endanger its holistic well-being. prime concern of this study is to investigate prevalence four globally ubiquitous enteric protozoans, namely Cryptosporidium spp., G. intestinalis, Blastocystis E. bieneusi in yaks from different areas Lhasa, Xizang. In given study, 377...
The South China Sea (SCS) is vital habitat and potential nursery feeding grounds for large cetaceans, such as the sperm whale (Physeter macrocephalus), making understanding of temporal spatial patterns cetaceans in this region essential. We examined accuracy environmental DNA (eDNA) detecting cetacean species diversity determine distribution northern SCS. conducted 5 ship-based visual surveys 3 summers 2 springs from 2020 to 2023 used eDNA metabarcoding relative abundance offshore abyssal...
ABSTRACT A phosphorous flame retardant (DOPO‐MAH) was synthesized through the reaction between of 9,10‐dihydro‐9‐oxa‐10‐phosphaphenanthrene‐10‐oxide (DOPO) and maleic anhydride (MAH) confirmed by FT‐IR, 1 H NMR, 31 P NMR techniques. The obtained then melt blended with poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT) to prepare PBT/DOPO‐MAH composites. composites were characterized LOI, UL‐94, mechanical tests as well scanning electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, differential calorimetry...
Abstract Indo‐Pacific humpback dolphins ( Sousa chinensis ) inhabiting the Chinese coastline of northern South China Sea are subject to intense human activity. To investigate potential impacts dolphins, photographs taken from 2010 2021 in five different locations were analyzed. Among individual N = 1,159), 10.6% presented human‐induced injuries. Adults more frequently injured than young and individuals around Jiangmen, Hainan, Sanniang Bay highest injury prevalence. More research should be...
Abstract Beaked whales represent around 25% of known extant cetacean species, yet they are the least all marine mammals. Identification many Mesoplodon species has relied on examination a few stranded individuals. Particularly, ginkgo‐toothed beaked whale ( ginkgodens ) and Deraniyagala's hotaula among least‐known without confirmed sightings living individuals to date. We present sighting 3 free‐ranging M. ginkgodens/hotaula from dedicated mammal vessel survey carried out in South China Sea...
