Reaction–Diffusion Finite Element Model of Lateral Line Primordium Migration to Explore Cell Leadership [PDF]
Collective cell migration plays a fundamental role in many biological phenomena such as immune response, embryogenesis and tumorigenesis. In the present work, we propose a reaction–diffusion finite element model of the lateral line primordium migration ...

Evolution and stability of social learning in animal migration. [PDF]
The conditions regulating long distance migrations of large animal groups remain elusive in ecology. It has been suggested that individual interactions, environmental constraints and social dynamics play a major role in group formation and migration ...

Models on diel vertical migration [PDF]
To clarify what can be expected from models the role of modelling in the scientific process in relation to experiments and field studies is addressed. Hypotheses to explain vertical migration are reviewed with respect to the selection mechanism assumed ...

Individual variability and versatility in an eco-evolutionary model of avian migration [PDF]
Seasonal migration is a complex and variable behaviour with the potential to promote reproductive isolation. In Eurasian blackcaps (Sylvia atricapilla), a migratory divide in central Europe separating populations with southwest (SW) and southeast (SE ...

Migratory species often provide ecosystem service benefits to people in one country while receiving habitat support in other countries. The multinational cooperation that could help ensure continued provisioning of these benefits by migration may be ...

Energetic and behavioral consequences of migration: an empirical evaluation in the context of the full annual cycle [PDF]
Seasonal migrations are used by diverse animal taxa, yet the costs and benefits of migrating have rarely been empirically examined. The aim of this study was to determine how migration influences two ecological currencies, energy expenditure and time ...

“Closer‐to‐home” strategy benefits juvenile survival in a long‐distance migratory bird
Human‐induced changes in the climate and environment that occur at an unprecedented speed are challenging the existence of migratory species. Faced with these new challenges, species with diverse and flexible migratory behaviors may suffer less from ...

Ecological Consequences of Animal Migration : Prey Partial Migration Affects Predator Ecology and Prey Communities [PDF]
Patterns of animal migration and the ecological forces that shape them have been studied for centuries. Yet ecological impacts caused by the migration, such as altered predator–prey interactions and effects on community structure, remain poorly ...

Using weather radar to help minimize wind energy impacts on nocturnally migrating birds
As wind energy rapidly expands worldwide, information to minimize impacts of this development on biodiversity is urgently needed. Here we demonstrate how data collected by weather radar networks can inform placement and operation of wind facilities to ...
