Bioclimatic building design theory and application
Procedia Manufacturing, 2020 Ecological thinking is the recognition of the dialectic unity between natural and man-made environment, the respect to what exists around us, and the concomitant “openness” toward others. Here, I present examples from my own work to describe a number of passive bioclimatic approaches focused on the above principles.

Water Use Behavior of Individual Birds: Ring Ouzels in an Arid High‐Mountain Ecosystem
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Water is a limiting resource for birds in arid ecosystems. Individual birds differ strongly in how they use shared water sources, with drinking behavior increasing with temperature. Behavioral differences, hierarchy, and social context ultimately shape unequal access to water within the population. ABSTRACT Water availability strongly constrains animal

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.We combined microscopic screening and molecular phylogenetic analyses to characterize blood parasites infecting Gallotia intermedia from the coastal cliffs of Montaña de Guaza and to place these infections in a broader biogeographic context. We detected apicomplexan parasites of the genus Karyolysus infecting 53.6% of G.

Environmental Drivers of Geographic Isolation in Three Pika Species in Northeast Asia
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Using bias‐corrected species distribution models, we found that geographic isolation among three northeastern Asian pika species (Ochotona coreana, Ochotona mantchurica, and Ochotona hyperborea) reflects both divergent environmental preferences and potential competitive interactions. O.
