Due to humans, Salish Sea waters are too noisy for resident orcas to hunt successfully

New research has revealed how underwater noise produced by humans may help explain why southern resident orca populations have not recovered from historic lows. The team reports that underwater noise pollution -- from both large and small vessels -- forces northern and southern resident orcas to expend more time and energy hunting for fish. The din also lowers the overall success of their hunting efforts. Noise from ships likely has... Read more ›

Conscientiousness, not willpower, is a reliable predictor of success

According to two psychologists, the field of psychological science has a problem with the concept of self-control. It has named self-control both a 'trait' -- a key facet of personality involving attributes like conscientiousness, grit and the ability to tolerate delayed gratification -- and a 'state,' a fleeting condition that can best be described as willpower. These two concepts are at odds with one another and are often confused, the... Read more ›

Surprising hormone-related gene activity discovered in the early larval stage of the Malabar grouper

Researchers have highlighted patterns of gene activation during Malabar grouper larval development, revealing an unusual early peak of activation of thyroid and corticoid genes during the early larval stage of these fish. Their paper shows that thyroid and corticoid genes are activated twice during larval development, once during the early larval stage and once during metamorphosis. This early activation has never been encountered in any fish species before, making the... Read more ›
