“Closer‐to‐home” strategy benefits juvenile survival in a long‐distance migratory bird
Ecology and Evolution, 2019 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 ...

The promise of behavioral tracking systems for advancing primate animal welfare [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Recent years have witnessed major advances in the ability of computerized systems to track the positions of animals as they move through large and unconstrained environments. These systems have so far been a great boon in the fields of primatology, psychology, neuroscience, and biomedicine.

A guide to sampling design for GPS‐based studies of animal societies
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, 2023 GPS‐based tracking is widely used for studying wild social animals. Much like traditional observational methods, using GPS devices requires making a number of decisions about sampling that can affect the robustness of a study's conclusions.

Population Ecology, Volume 67, Issue 2, Page 125-139, April 2025.In this article, we tested optimal SNP filtering strategies for accurate parentage assignment and pedigree reconstruction for a wild population of red‐spotted masu salmon, Oncorhynchus masou ishikawae. We found that mid‐point filtering in terms of call rate and minor allele frequency performs well for pedigree reconstruction.

Calcineurin in Animal Behavior
Molecules and Cells, 2004 The conserved Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent phosphatase calcineurin has been shown to be involved in numerous and diverse functions both at the cellular and organism level. Recent genetic and pharmacological studies in animals including C. elegans, Drosophila, Aplysia, rat and mice have also implicated calcineurin in behavior, particularly in the ...
