Greenland sharks 🦈 are a vulnerable species at risk of accidental capture during angling. This study shows that Greenland sharks are resilient to capture stress when properly handled, highlighting the importance of proper handling practices. ➡️ doi.org/10.1093/conphy…

The call is out for submissions to our special issue on mechanistic modelling for conservation. We're interested in work from all ecosystems on all taxa. Send us your work! academic.oup.com/conphys/pages/…

Join us for this free webinar next week - some great tips on how to write and respond to peer reviews: sebiology.org/events/ems-eve…

Eight days to go until our #PeerReview webinar! Sign up here ➡️ tinyurl.com/4r9hnjju

We are very excited to share our new editorial which provides guidance on responding to #PeerReview, allowing authors to get the most out of the review process. ➡️ doi.org/10.1093/conphy… #PeerReview #EarlyCareerResearcher #ECR

Our follow-up article to our recent editorial on writing peer reviews - how should you respond? doi.org/10.1093/conphy…

How can we measure energy use in large animals where direct measurements may be impractical? This study provides the first estimates of daily field metabolic rates in sperm whales by combining in-situ data with proxies for energy expenditure 🐋 ➡️ doi.org/10.1093/conphy…

We are delighted to announce the next installment of our #CommunityConversations webinar series 🌎💬 In this FREE event, journal editors Sean Tomlinson & Jeff Clements discuss how to get the most out of the #PeerReview process. Info here ➡️ tinyurl.com/4r9hnjju #ECR

One of those PhD opportunities that make me think about going back and doing another one. Don't miss the chance

Studying #AnimalBehaviour and #Physiology can help predict species’ responses to environmental change. This #Perspective argues for a broader approach integrating environmental factors and wider context in order to advance conservation science. ➡️ academic.oup.com/conphys/articl…

New Research: Ecophysiological constraints outperform environmental predictors in forecasting climate-driven extinction risk of a Cerrado endemic lizard frontiersin.org/articles/10.33… #FrontiersIn #AmphibianReptileScience

In this study of body condition in sea lion pups at different latitudes, pups in southern colonies were larger and healthier, showing that local environments strongly shape early survival prospects 🦭🌍 Read it here ➡️ doi.org/10.1093/conphy…

@conphysjournal Great piece of work here led by @pieter_arnold. A really variable survey of where things stand now, and where we need to go on plant conservation physiology

Plants show remarkable resilience to environmental changes, but how do they cope when exposed to extremes during early life? This #Perspective explores the sensitivity of early life stages to #HeatStress, with the aim of enhancing #Conservation🌲 🌺 ➡️ doi.org/10.1093/conphy…

Early life stages have been hypothesised to be particularly vulnerable to environmental stressors. This new study highlights a shortage of research into embryos in the #ConPhys field and calls for more research into early life stages 🪺 🐦‍⬛ ➡️ doi.org/10.1093/conphy…
