Background And Objectives: Water is essential for proper physiological function. As temperatures increase, populations may struggle to meet water needs despite adaptations or acclimation; chronic dehydration can cause kidney damage. We evaluate how daily water requirements are associated with ambient temperature (ambT), wet bulb globe temperature (WBGT), urine specific gravity (USG; marker of hydration status), and albumin:creatinine ratio (ACR; kidney function biomarker) among Daasanach pastoralists living in a hot, dry northern Kenyan climate.

Chromosome-scale genome assembly of Sauvagesia rhodoleuca (Ochnaceae) provides insights into its genome evolution and demographic history.

Sauvagesia rhodoleuca is an endangered species endemic to southern China. Due to human activities, only six fragmented populations remain in Guangdong and Guangxi. Despite considerable conservation efforts, its demographic history and evolution remain poorly understood, particularly from a genomic perspective.

Making Restoration Effective for Dynamic Coastal Wetlands.

To halt and reverse the trends of ecosystem loss and degradation under global change, nations globally are promoting ecosystem restoration. Restoration is particularly crucial to coastal wetlands (including tidal marshes, mangrove forests, and tidal flats), which are among the most important ecosystems on Earth but have been severely depleted and degraded. In this review, we explore the question of how to make restoration more effective for coastal wetlands in light of the often-overlooked dynamic nature of these transitional ecosystems between land and ocean.

Genome assembly remains an unsolved problem, and de novo strategies (i.e., those run without a reference) are relevant but computationally complex tasks in genomics.

Thermal responses of feeding rates differ across co-occurring predator species.

Changes in global temperature regimes are expected to transform species interactions in natural communities. However, predicting the consequences of warming on populations and communities is challenging because species interact with a range of community members. In theory, species should be adapted to their local temperature regimes, which might suggest a parallel shift across species interactions.
