TL;DR: The research and development performed to obtain anatomical models that meet the requirements necessary for medical implant safety assessment applications are described, including implementation of quality control procedures, re-segmentation at higher resolution, more-consistent tissue assignments, enhanced surface processing and numerous anatomical refinements.

TL;DR: Overall, however, lower survival has persisted post-heatwave, suggesting that habitat loss following extreme weather events may have prolonged, negative impacts on even behaviourally flexible, higher-trophic level predators.

TL;DR: It is found that social bonds among peers, rather than kinship, play a central role in the development of adult male polyadic cooperation in dolphins, and the vast majority of social bonds present in adolescence persisted through time.

TL;DR: This study evaluated the species status and genetic connectedness of bottlenose dolphin populations off remote northwestern Australia, with a focus on pelagic ‘offshore’ dolphins subject to incidental capture in a trawl fishery, taking evolutionary processes into account for informing the conservation and management of protected species.

TL;DR: The importance of social learning on the diffusion of sponging is quantified, for the first time explicitly accounting for ecological and genetic factors, using a multi-network version of ‘network-based diffusion analysis'.
