INSECT FLIGHT - BIOACOUSTICAL APPROACH

open access: yesLe Journal de Physique Colloques, 1990
Insect aerodynamics is drawing the attention of a number of researchers belonging to different disciplines with a view to understand its aerodynamic capabilities so as to revolutionise the aircraft technology. It is possible to understand, to some extent, the insect aerodynamics by experimentally determining the frequency of wing beat in its fethered ...

We Go Signaling Into the Night: Describing an Echolocation Signal of an Unknown Beaked Whale (Cetacea; Ziphiidae) off West Africa

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Beaked whales (Cetacea; Ziphiidae), one of the most diverse families of cetaceans, can be identified by species‐specific, frequency‐modulated echolocation signals. Of the 24 known species of beaked whales, over half have been assigned a unique signal type. A novel echolocation pulse belonging to an unknown beaked whale species was recorded off

Accelerando and crescendo in African penguin ecstatic display songs

open access: yesAnnals of the New York Academy of Sciences, EarlyView.
Human music is often characterized by accelerando—the progressive speeding up of notes—but quantitative investigations of accelerando in other species are lacking. We used a suite of rhythm analyses to show that male African penguins produce ecstatic display songs that get progressively faster (i.e., accelerando) and louder (i.e., crescendo). This work

Validated Sandwich ELISA for the Quantification of von Willebrand Factor in Rabbit Plasma

open access: yesBiomarker Insights, 2010
von Willebrand Factor (vWF) is a multimeric plasma protein important for platelet plug formation. As part of its haemostatic role, it is released from endothelial cells during vascular stress or injury and is considered an excellent biomarker of ...

Mapping the Structure and Evolution of Fish Bio‐ and Ecoacoustics; From Single Species Studies to Biodiversity Monitoring

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, Volume 26, Issue 4, Page 577-586, July 2025.
ABSTRACT This review examines the progression of fish bioacoustics and ecoacoustics, with a focus on the growing application of Passive Acoustic Monitoring (PAM) as a non‐invasive tool for assessing fish biodiversity. As environmental conservation goals intensify globally, particularly with initiatives such as Biodiversity Net Gain, the need for ...
