Aquatic Terrestrial Linkages Along a Braided-River: Riparian Arthropods Feeding on Aquatic Insects [PDF]
, 2018 Rivers can provide important sources of energy for riparian biota. Stable isotope analysis (δ13C, δ15N) together with linear mixing models, were used to quantify the importance of aquatic insects as a food source for a riparian arthropod assemblage ...

More oxygen during development enhanced flight performance but not thermal tolerance of Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]
, 2017 High temperatures can stress animals by raising the oxygen demand above the oxygen supply. Consequently, animals under hypoxia could be more sensitive to heating than those exposed to normoxia.

Remora‐Inspired Sensing Suction Cup with Adhesion Monitoring and Force Detection
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.A suction cup with integrated liquid metal microchannel sensors enables stable multidirectional force sensing and adhesion monitoring in both air and water. The flexible resistive sensors, placed on the outer lip, transduce deformations into resistance changes under normal and shear loads.

Multimodal Locomotion of Soft Robots
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This review comprehensively surveys recent advances in multimodal locomotion within soft robotics. Typical locomotion modes are summarized and categorized. Furthermore, the underlying mechanisms enabling multimodal locomotion are discussed and classified into three primary categories: active control‐based, reconfiguration‐based, and environment ...

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.Female desert locusts dig underground to lay their eggs. They displace soil, rather than removing it, to create a tunnel. We analyze burrowing dynamics and 3D kinematics and design a locust‐inspired hybrid soft–stiff robot that reproduces this mechanism. The results show the natural strategy minimizes energy, whereas alternative patterns raise costs up
