An object-oriented Bayesian network approach for establishing swine manure-borne natural estrogenic compounds budget
SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT, 639, 815–825.
author keywords: Natural estrogens; Swine CAFO; Total facility estrogen budget; OOBN
MeSH headings : Animals; Bayes Theorem; Estradiol; Estrogens / analysis; Estrogens / metabolism; Estrone; Female; Lactation; Manure / analysis; North Carolina; Swine; Waste Disposal, Fluid / methods; Water Pollutants, Chemical / analysis; Water Pollutants, Chemical / metabolism
TL;DR:
Results from the OOBN model indicate a rank order of lactating sows in terms of contribution of estrogen loads to the total natural estrogen budget, and E1 was found as the major estrogen metabolite with the summed concentrations of urine, feces, and flushing slurry wastes exceeding 3000 ng/l > 90% of the time.

A Membrane G-Protein-Coupled Estrogen Receptor Is Necessary but Not Sufficient for Sex Differences in Zebra Finch Auditory Coding
ENDOCRINOLOGY, 159(3), 1360–1376.
MeSH headings : Animals; Auditory Cortex / physiology; Auditory Perception / physiology; Estrogens / metabolism; Female; Finches / physiology; Male; Neurons / physiology; Prosencephalon / anatomy & histology; Prosencephalon / physiology; Receptors, Estrogen / antagonists & inhibitors; Receptors, Estrogen / physiology; Receptors, G-Protein-Coupled / antagonists & inhibitors; Receptors, G-Protein-Coupled / physiology; Sex Characteristics; Signal Transduction; Vocalization, Animal / physiology
TL;DR:
A role for GPER1 in regulating sensory processing and a sex difference in auditory processing of complex vocalizations in a cell type-specific manner are found, revealing sex specificity of a rapid estrogen signaling mechanism in which neuromodulation accounts and/or compensates for brain sex differences in brain regions that are anatomically similar in both sexes.

Response of beach-nesting American Oystercatchers to off-road vehicles: An experimental approach reveals physiological nuances and decreased nest attendance
CONDOR, 120(1), 47–62.
author keywords: Field experiment; in situ; paired design; flight response; freezing behavior; American Oystercatcher
TL;DR:
Higher nest attendance and lower departure rates late in incubation may have reflected a stronger attachment to nests closer to hatching or habituation to the driving treatment, although individuals continued to exhibit physiological responses to passing vehicles throughout incubation.

Chasing a changing climate: Reproductive and dispersal traits predict how sessile species respond to global warming
DIVERSITY AND DISTRIBUTIONS, 24(7), 880–891.
Ed(s): A. Ricciardi
author keywords: adaptive management; climate change; endangered species; freshwater mussels; life history; Unionidae
TL;DR:
Assessment of reproductive and dispersal traits of freshwater mussels, sessile invertebrates that require species‐specific fish for larval dispersal and other species' range shifts associated with climate change finds that limited mobility and imperilled status place some species at a potentially greater risk of range loss, extirpation or extinction due to climate change.
