The Effects of Intraspecific Variation of Crayfish Behavior on Nutrient Cycling in Aquatic Environments [PDF]
Human activities are rapidly altering species traits at a global scale. Yet, there remains a critical need to determine whether trait variation within species affects ecosystem responses to global change. In particular, intraspecific variation in feeding

Urban Behavioral Ecology: Lessons from Anolis Lizards.
Human-driven rapid environmental changes such as urbanization challenge the persistence of animal populations worldwide. A major aim of research in urban ecology is to unravel which traits allow animals to successfully deal with these new selective ...

Reverse chemical ecology approach for the identification of an oviposition attractant for Culex quinquefasciatus. [PDF]
Pheromones and other semiochemicals play a crucial role in today's integrated pest and vector management strategies. These semiochemicals are typically discovered by bioassay-guided approaches.

Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory
Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.

Temperature influences every aspect of ant biology, especially metabolic rate, growth and development. Maintenance of high inner nest temperature increases the rate of sexual brood development and thereby increases the colony fitness.
