Cover: Bottlenose dolphins use an advanced sonar system to echolocate their prey in dark or murky waters. Their sonar clicks are produced pneumatically in a highly complex nasal system made up of air sacs, a fatty melon and two pairs of phonic lips. Madsen et al. (pp. 4091−4102) show that dolphins produce echolocation clicks with their right pair of phonic lips and produce whistles for communication with their left pair of phonic lips. Despite this unilateral sound production, dolphins can acutely change the parameters of their sounds by changing the tension of the phonic lips and the driving air pressure.

Inside the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change with Hans-Otto Pörtner
During the past two decades, Hans-Otto Pörtner has steered climate change policy as a co-Chair of IPCC Working Group II. He tells us about the experience in this Perspective.
Photosynthesis turns symbiotic sea anemone's tentacles toward sun
Snakelocks sea anemones point their tentacles, packed with symbiotic algae, toward the sun so their lodgers can photosynthesize, and now Vengamanaidu Modepalli & colleagues have discovered that photosynthesis by the algae guides their host's tentacles towards the sun.
