Frequencies and functions of vocalizations and gestures in the second year of life. by Megan M Burkhardt-Reed, Edina R Bene, D Kimbrough Oller

“…Now we bring longitudinal data on the second year (13, 16 and 20 mo), showing again that vocalizations predominated, and especially in conventional (learned) communication; > 9 times more spoken words were observed than gestures that could be viewed as functionally equivalent to words (i.e., signs). Our observations also showed that about ¾ of gestures across these second-year data were deictics (primarily pointing and reaching), acts that while significant in supporting the establishment of referential vocabulary in both spoken and signed languages, are not signs, but have single universal deictic functions in the here and now. …”

Global change in the trophic functioning of marine food webs. by Aurore Maureaud, Didier Gascuel, Mathieu Colléter, Maria L D Palomares, Hubert Du Pontavice, Daniel Pauly, William W L Cheung

“…The development of fisheries in the oceans, and other human drivers such as climate warming, have led to changes in species abundance, assemblages, trophic interactions, and ultimately in the functioning of marine food webs. Here, using a trophodynamic approach and global databases of catches and life history traits of marine species, we tested the hypothesis that anthropogenic ecological impacts may have led to changes in the global parameters defining the transfers of biomass within the food web. …”
