Transplanted bivalves record subseasonal shifts in isotopic and elemental proxies for salinity in subtropical estuaries

Context Geochemical proxies in bivalve shells can reconstruct past environmental conditions in dynamic estuaries, yet field-based validation of how quickly these proxies respond to ambient water fluctuations remains limited. Aims This study evaluated eastern oyster (Crassostrea v...

Genetic and behavioural repertoires support olfactory communication in wild capuchin monkeys

Olfaction is a key sense for many mammals, but its role in the social lives of anthropoid primates (monkeys, apes, humans) is poorly understood. Studies of chemosensory receptor genes and olfactory behaviours can provide insight into the evolution and function of olfaction across...
