Geospatial Tools and Remote Sensing Strategies for Timely Humanitarian Response: A Case Study on Drought Monitoring in Eswatini

This article explores the escalating impact of natural disasters, particularly droughts, in the Southern African Development Community (SADC), with a specific focus on Eswatini. Over the last century, approximately 63 million people in SADC countries have ...

Identification of the trade-off between speed and efficiency in undulatory swimming using a bio-inspired robot

Auke Ijspeert, Karen Ann J Mulleners, Kamilo Andres Melo Becerra, Alexandros Anastasiadis, Laura Isabel Paez Coy, Eric Daniel Tytell

Anguilliform swimmers, like eels or lampreys, are highly efficient swimmers. Key to understanding their performances is the relationship between the body’s kinematics and resulting swimming speed and efficiency. But, we cannot prescribe kinematics to livin ...

Two-generation common-garden experiment reveals a strong genetic contribution to migration tendency in brown trout (Salmo trutta)

Alexandre Lemopoulos

Many salmonids, including brown trout (Salmo trutta), demonstrate alternative migration strategies under different environmental conditions, and as such, they are assumed to be predominantly facultative. Through experimental breeding for two generations, w ...

Bio accessibility of tire-associated organic chemicals in fish gut (Oncorhynchus mykiss): insights from an in vitro digestion model

Kristin Schirmer, Florian Frédéric Vincent Breider, Benoît Jean Dominique Ferrari, Thibault Béranger Masset

Tire and Road Wear Particles (TRWP) account for an important part of the anthropogenic particles released into the environment. There are scientific knowledge gaps as to the potential bio accessibility of chemicals associated with TRWP to aquatic organisms ...

Positive interactions between corals and damselfish increase coral resistance to temperature stress

Leïla Ezzat

By the century's end, many tropical seas will reach temperatures exceeding most coral species' thermal tolerance on an annual basis. The persistence of corals in these regions will, therefore, depend on their abilities to tolerate recurrent thermal stress. ...

Toxicity and translocation of Ag, CuO, ZnO and TiO2 nanoparticles upon exposure to fish intestinal epithelial cells

Kristin Schirmer, Laura Sigg

Understanding the ability of fish intestinal cells to act as a barrier for nanoparticle (NP) uptake and their effects is of significance from an environmental perspective as well as for human health, for which fish serves as an important nutrient source. W ...

Legacy and alternative halogenated flame retardants in Lake Geneva fish

Legacy (i.e., polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) and hexabromocyclododecane (HBCDD)) and alternative halogenated flame retardants (HFRs) were analyzed in 31 whole fish samples from Lake Geneva in 2018. Two fish species, namely, the burbot (Lota lota) a ...

Extending the Concept of Predicting Fish Acute Toxicity In Vitro to the Intestinal Cell Line RTgutGC

Kristin Schirmer, Hannah Inka Schug, Jenny Maner

Testing chemicals for fish acute toxicity is a legal requirement in many countries as part of environmental risk assessment. To reduce the number of fish used, substantial efforts have been focused on alternative approaches. Prominently, the cell viability ...

Bio-Inspired Tensegrity Fish Robot

Dario Floreano, Jun Shintake, Davide Zappetti, Timothée John Martin Peter, Yusuke Ikemoto

This paper presents a method to create fish-like robots with tensegrity systems and describes a prototype modeled on the body shape of the rainbow trout with a length of 400 mm and a mass of 102 g that is driven by a waterproof servomotor. The structure of ...

A fish intestinal barrier model to assess the interaction with chemicals in vitro

Hannah Inka Schug

The intestinal epithelium acts as vital gate keeper between the fish and its surrounding environment. A single layer of connected epithelial cells forms a selective barrier, which, among other essential functions, is important for nutrient uptake and defen ...
