After winning the Fish book cover prize in 1997 I started writing fiction. I went on to do a Creative Writing MA in Norwich and write fiction with an art and design background, drawing upon my experiences as an artist. My most recent novel (in-progress), Picasso, Cream Horns and Tulips...
Foskett Spring in Oregon’s desert harbors a historically threatened population of Western Speckled Dace (Rhinichthys klamathensis). Though recently delisted, the dace’s recruitment depends upon regular removal of encroaching vegetation. Previous studie

The situation dawned upon us. While waiting for slack water, in which to lift their heavy nets from the bed of the bay, the Chinese had all gone to sleep below. We were elated, and our plan of battle was swiftly formed. "Throw each of your two men on to a junk," whispered Le ...
Code used to conduct these analyses is available upon request. Chromosomal binning and ploidy detection To generate whole chromosome estimates of ploidy for each cell, a weighted average copy number (weighted by bin size) was applied to the inferred copy number output from Ginkgo for each ...
Successful reintroduction (including re-stocked and translocated individuals) depends in part upon individual ability to move through structurally complex environments, avoid predators, forage efficiently but also interact socially30. Here, SNA can help to explore if and how reintroduced individuals integrat...

In a recent study, the expression of an iron ABC transporter harboured on pVSAL320 was shown to be dependent upon iron and probably regulated by the ferric uptake regulator Fur [20]. pVSAL320 may therefore be important for the non-siderophore based uptake of ferrous iron. Valla and ...
(2019) indicated that sponges are low preference dietary items for some parrotfishes. Instead, it has been suggested that parrotfish are microphages, preying upon the microscopic bacteria inhabiting sponges and other benthic structure forming taxa (Goldberg2013; Clements et al.2017; Nicholson and ...
We then used a model to test the impact of taxonomy, genome size, and environmental variables on the copy numbers of these genes. Our findings reveal novel domain structures, clade-specific gains and losses. They also assist with the timing of the gene expansions, reveal patterns associated ...
